Hugh of Ilia Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 (edited) Well, I think eviteryone who has played this game knows how atrocious the Dark Mage/Sorcerer growths are, and their bases ain't to great either. They are my favourite class and I am looking for a challenge so I wanted to try and make the ultimate MU Dark Mage build. Any help would be much appreciated and thanks to anyone who does help out. I'll start off the character as a Mage and play Hard mode.Just for Reference: Base stats: HP/STR/MAG/SKL/SPD/LCK/DEF/RES 18 / 2 / 2 / 4/ 4 / 3 / 4 / 3 Growths: HP/STR/MAG/SKL/SPD/LCK/DEF/RES 50 / 10 / 35 / 50 / 50 / 60 / 5 / 30 Not looking too great from the get-go...

Aircalipoor Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 (edited) You don´t need MU outside of H3/H4, so it´s fine having him stuck in a bad class. Which gender? A female MU gives you Nosferatu and Aura after chapter 3, while a male MU gets Excalibur in chapter 10. You can have a 15% growth in defense at all, so I wouldn´t count on that and leave it at 5%. I would improve his HP, magic and spd instead. If you have high HP and hammer Nosferatu tomes, you may not mind about your low defense in late game. I would go for Noble Child, Strong and Recluse. This gives you more base spd (the growth rate is high enough anyways), solid HP in base stats and growth as well as a magic growth of 50%. The prologue chapters are short, so reseting on them for great level-ups is always useful. Edited March 16, 2015 by Aircalipoor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh of Ilia Posted March 16, 2015 Author Share Posted March 16, 2015 (edited) The whole point of this was to make a good Dark Mage MU and sadly, Etzel is not MU The MU is going to be male as sadly, no female Dark Mages Edited March 17, 2015 by Starman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gradivus. Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 (edited) dark mages aren't a lot worse than regular mages, aside from the fact that dark mages can't be female, which is the favorable mage!MU option due to Aura and Nosferatu; you can stick with a male Mage!MU with the standard Orphan, the HP present and Noble's child and get Dark Mage via mixed reclass sets.

Thats mainly because Normal H1 and H2 are not hard just reclass everyone to dracoknights and marth may or may not solo H2 (he has a rough start but becomes very good quickly) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
