Invoker (Mage Kit)¶
A wizard who specializes in the manipulation of raw and elemental energies.
Advantages¶
- May memorize one additional spell per level per day.
- Full access to every direct-damage spell: Magic Missile, Fireball, Lightning Bolt, Cone of Cold, Skull Trap, Chain Lightning, Sunfire, Meteor Swarm, etc.
Disadvantages¶
- Opposed schools (TWO): Enchantment/Charm and Conjuration/Summoning — no charm spells, no summons.
When to pick it¶
- The Invoker is a glass cannon — losing both summons and disabling spells removes the Mage's traditional defensive options. Bring durable melee allies.
- For pure damage-per-second, this kit is unmatched among specialists.
