Recommended equipment	Weapons +5 Kris +5 Istratelle Spear- needs a 24 faith and 18 dex to use but is well worth it at higher faith lvls. +5 Crescent Kilij- primary back up weapon +5 Moon Uchigatana +5 Blessed Mirdian Hammer +5 Blessed Mace +5 Dragon Long Sword- use this for Garl +5 Dragon Morningstar- had to use up my dragon stones :) +5 Sticky Compound Longbow Rings Friends Ring Thieves Ring Graverobbers Ring Cling Ring Regen Ring Armor Ancient Kings Breast Plate Leather Gloves and Boots Silver Coronet Old Monks Collar +10 PFS
Recommended spells/miracles	Gods Wrath- over 700 damage points 2nd Chance Firestorm- Lots and lots and lots and lots of damage Soul Ray- depending on the enemy and if its shielded between 330- 600 points per hit Anti Magik Field- Mostly for use in the tower (3.1) when its time to refill Old Spice
Gameplay tips and progression	A fun build for bluing around. The Istratelle can be found in 5.1 with a pure white world tendency. Id recommend having firestorm at this point or bringing along a blue who has it because you will need to get past 5 giant goblins to get it. The blessed weapons are a lot harder to get built time wise but very good to have- solid damage points and add a bit of regen that is useful in those times where you dont want to waste spice on small hurts. The regen is not useful for battle even if stacked with the regen ring and adjudicator shield once you get past lvl 110 or so as most BPs are dealing out FAR more damage at a far quicker pace but at lower levels they help alot. I use the Istratelle as my primary weapon and for PvE it one shots most of the minor enemies and 2 shots (at most) some of the higher enemies like Blue and Red Eye Knights. For PvP this is a devastating weapon if used properly and to be honest it took me some go rounds to learn how to use it to best results. I could probably adjust the stats to where it is closer to 124- 130 and it will still be nearly as powerful. But, it was and is fun to play with

what are you going for? this part of the site isnt meant to map your progress with your character. Your strength and dex are unnecessarily high, and the PFS is overrated, especially for a mage. A mage should never exceed 18 strength, the minimum for the uchigatana and steel shield. Really, this is just another version of my "pushed spellsword" with a higher soul level and many unused stats… 45 mag-fth is quite good for a mage, 24 END is good for rolling and some melee, 25 INT is a bit low. Dragon weapons are useless with this build because your damage with blessed and crescent weapons will be far superior against most builds. Instead of the blessed mace, use the guillotine axe, it's more powerful. I don't particularly like the lack of creativity behind this build, it's a slight modification of builds that already exist. If i have any recommendation, use the Meat Cleaver 2H with light weapon, it wont disappoint. other than that, sorry, -1

1. who are you to determine what "this part of the site is designed for"?
2, In case you notice, this IS NOT A MAGE, never said it was. Look at the weapons involved with this build, Be kind of stupid to build them and not use them dontcha think? I happen to enjoy breaking out a dragon weapon every now and again for a change of pace. I like also to use it on Garl, I like to be able to use a bow and a 20 dex for me is FUN. I use what weapons I want to use for my own FUN
3. Lack of creativity? Lets see how creative you are? Show me a build that you made that hasnt been made before… show me one not cloned from an NPC. Show me true creativity…. C'mon, you can do it.
