admin Posted July 25, 2025 Posted July 25, 2025 Rune Wizard (Rune Mage) — Season 14 Renewal on Season 20 Part 2-1 The Rune Mage is a half-elf — the child of Arka, a dark wizard of the noble union, and the fairy who created the Wolf Altar. From his father he inherited powerful magic, and his fairy mother's power gives him even stronger magic attacks and offensive buffs. His body has low survivability, but he delivers massive magic damage by maximizing the Energy stat. A Rune Wizard uses some of the Warlock's black magic together with special rune magic of his own. His exclusive skills consist of spells that directly attack enemies and skills that channel his rune energy into the target. In the Season 20 Part 2-1 renewal the class was reworked: damage formulas and master-skill links were improved so it scales better with Energy, and a new Magic Power stat was added. Damage skills and support buffs now work much better together in a party.

Most builds pump Energy almost exclusively, with some Stamina/Agility for survivability. Rune Wizard Playstyle 1) A magic-attack class that uses the Energy stat to raise magic power and strike enemy targets. 2) Casts two or more magic skills at once to hit enemies with high damage over a wide area. The class rewards positioning and timing: it clears dense maps fast and punishes grouped enemies hard in PvP and events. Two Rune-Mage-exclusive buffs support this — Burst (temporarily raises Skill Damage at extra Mana cost) and Haste (temporarily raises Attack Speed at extra AG cost). Rune Wizard Skills Some of the black magic learned through his father's research book, plus exclusive skills only the Rune Wizard can use.
