Some cool combo's that go well together(just make sure always under 50% equip burden!)Mix and Match. Sometimes mixing up armor from different sets gives you more defense in all key four areas of damage-blunt/normal/piercing/slashing, than just wearing one set of armor. Males Armor: I apologize to everyone if I am off on female armor. I usually am a male character, hence not too familiar with all the various sets of armor. If I messed up in past post/builds with this, I apologize… Females Armors various sets that can go well together: Armor: Left Hand Slots: Shield-DSS+5(great against magic based melee weapons, Soul Ray, HSA. Blocks some fire based spells, dragon weapons.blessed upgraded weapons, and decreases overall magic damage you take in. Knights(great for blocking physical damage weapons. Both DSS and Knight's are two top shields I recommend overall. Both can parry. Heater Shield-Tiny, but can parry. Only use against fire casting mags'. Adjudicators-Only recommend if in body form! While not a fan to tell you the truth of using regen equipment with non-faith builds, should you be in body form, equiped regen ring, two handing a weapon like the NR could be worth using this shield. I wouldn't use in phantom form since the shield itself, not using any other regeneratino equipment will not save you a sliver of health:) Second Left Hand Slot(should always be used with this set up and one below!-TOB(casting spell) With 15 intelligence only, decided to boost faith to 18 in order to effectively deal damage using the TOB. Not as strong as Ikat, but still can do incredible spell damage, especially when in phantom form. It is why I recommend using this build either as blue or black(invader) or red(red stone) The great thing about foe's or friends is it has the same spell damage as ring of magical sharpness without having to lose magic defense in return. This is why these caliber of builds, while they can be used in body form and stil lbe great, are truly exceptional in soul form. Going from Left slots to Right: Shield/TOB/NR/Kris Blade, or moon upgraded weapon Second Setup: Main Righ Hand Weapon-As mentioned above, the NR Left Hand Weapon: Uchii(moon or crescent flavor-With 45 in magic stat, only time I would recommend definitely using a moon upgraded uchi is against faith builds. Against most other builds, while moon may still slightly have a bit of an advantage in terms of overall damage, crescent is still a viable option to choose from. Mixing it up, having a moon in your right, with a crescent to go in your left hand can be a great combo. The other options I mentioned above(crescent dag, Estoc) is because you need a fast right hand weapon, IMO to be in sync with the fast swing of the left hand Uchi you're using. Second Left Hand Slot-As mentioned above, the TOB. As with the first setup, going from left to right: Only difference between the two setups is one uses a shield, which allows for both passive(a bit of turtling using shield and poking while playing aggressively too) versus a non-shield based setup, using uchiganta as your main left hand weapon. Rings: Body Form playing levels PVE or co-op play- Clever/Dulls(great using Morion against the blue dragon before King Allant, or in 1-2 fighting the red dragon, with Morion on back using white arrows and compound bow +10. Soul Form: |

Ok I'm not going to rate yet but 15 int? The title said magician lord so I highly recommend you change the int. And I would add stat explanation and maybe even equipment explanation.
Agreed. If you're going to use Magic, then you'll need at least 30 Intelligence, and that will make this just one more unoriginal Spellsword… Maining with NR does give it some variation vs. normal Spellsword, but not much since any build can utilize it. If you're only raising Magic to get good damage from your Moon weapons, don't. They are horrible to main with. They have Split Damage, low overall Damage, cannot be buffed, do not give you HP regen, and do not give you MP regen (though Crescent weapons suck as well if you're using them w/o Spells).
This needs some revising to make it original and effective. That's a tall order.
