DLC and Multiplayer
So if i have the complete collection for magicka and my buddies just have the standard version without the dlcs. Can they join my server? I believe that they wont be able to equip the robes and staffs but what about everything else?

Only the host needs the DLC, your friends can play them normally, but they can't host them, as long as one of you have the DLC, all of your friends can enjoy them.

This comes from personal experience, I have all the DLC available, and my friends have none at all, and they can join my DLC matches without any problems. :)

Because when the original game only costs €2.5, the developer has to make money somehow.

Think of it as expansions sold piece by piece. If you buy all the DLC, it's about the same cost and amount of content as if you bought a traditional expansion. Only now you have the option to only buy the parts of it that you're interested in. The game was released two years ago, so it should be no surprise that a lot of additional stuff has been released since then.

Good luck with actually getting multiplayer working. I've had nothing but troubles with it.

Multiplayer works fine for me, not many people on though.
