Spells
Do know that spells can be put in any order and all of them do a ridiculous amount of damage.
Magicks have to be put in this exact order.
Attacking spells

(Magick)1.FQAS space-thunderbolt, this is the best magick in the game. You get it the first time you meet druids.

2.FQAS- beam,not sure exact amount of damage, but around 20,000- to do more damage do FQFQSAA

3.SD shift right click spam- does 70-400 damage to everything in target area and immobolizes them.

6.DQRQRQRQR- this thing can one or two hit almost anything except for bosses when charged up

7.DF Spam- Flaming balls of fire, do EF first because you will l catch on fire. This is good against bomb guys.

8. DSR- cold comet, good for slowing enemies.

9.QRSA- A spray of spikes

10. QR 3-4 times with D or S to make a powerful spray of spikes.
Mines, Traps, Defense Spells
1.EDDDD self cast- makes you a walking tank. Do ASF space for haste because this thing makes you slow.

2.FESA- super powerful mines that does a lot of damage (F can be replaced by R if you want). This is good for erasing big groups of enemies

3. QRSQREQR- this could be a vortex or a super powerful exploding wall

4.EDFFF- Volcanoe wall trap

5.EASF- Powerful defensive aura that blocks fire, arcane, and lightning. You could also put D and R (stone and ice) in their.
Items
Staff of War-shoots are arcane bolts.
Dropped by deciples.

Gnarled Staff- summons tree giants
dropped by druids

M60- Do I really have to explain what an M60 is.
In chapter 4, if you spam SD shift right click, the boss will not destroy any houses. The villagers then give you an M60

Tyron- sword that never misses (teleporting)
In chapter 5, look for the circle part. There will be a sword hidden to your right.

Master sword- Shoots arcane bolt that deal 400-800 damage if you are at full health.
on chapter 2, there is a river with imps on the bridge. If you go up that river there is a secret road to get there.
Tips
1.Anyone with armor is beat by arcane

2.The undead people are beat by healing. Use healing mines (EW)

3. In chapter 8 boss battle with the aristocrats, just stand in the middle and press REAS or FEAS shift right click and the people will keep on teleporting on them. You will not be hit if you stand right where you casted the spell.

4. Nullify (SE or ES space) everything! Nullify can get rid of minions summoned by bosses, unwanted mines or traps, and duplicates of bosses. When you first get it, it seems useless, but remember it because it will make your life easier.

5. When giant monsters hold you, instead of spamming space, use thunderbolt (FQASA) on them. It will either kill the enemy holding you or cause them to let go.

6. Once you get the spell summon elemental, do this. When monsters only pay attention to you once you come near to them, spam summon ellemental and give those the elemtals an ellement. If you spammed it enough, there should be an army of around 30-50 elementals.

7. Vlad is beat by fire once you face him.

8. Death is beat by healing.

9. If you have the cyber robe on, get wet, then spam the a key (lightning). This wil heal you really fast.

10. I know there is already a guide to do this, but I'm saying it anyways: To defeat the dragon, get right next to him, summon death, and teleport away.

spamming SD & Shift-Right click is highly ineffective. I suggest you spam QFASA + space (thunderbolt) when outside, which deals an incredible 5000+ damage, and usually 10000+ damage when the target is wet. If you are indoors and can't use it, I suggest you use QFQFSSA + hold Right-click, as it also deals a ton of damage.

what does the white wizards staff in chapter one do cause you can blow yourself over the door and obtain it or be smart and just blow it open :/

I haven't played in a long time, so this might not work. Death will move around, pause and slowly take a swing at you. You have to have healing mines (EW) or life wall (EDW) ready. You also will need haste on the get around easily. Before or while he comes place those down. I haven't tried this, but WD shift right click spam might also work. I'm not sure if you unlock this before you meet death, but teleporting will get you away form him.

I prefer shift spam SD because you can spam it faster. The SDF one will do more damge though.
cumlee Feb 12, 2014 @ 8:33am 
what about shift and spam SDF and right mouse button? or is it the same as spam with shift and SD?
