The Dark Wizard (evolves to Soul Master) is a ranged mage with strong AoE magic, clearing packs fast. Squishy, so keep your distance.
Key skills
Almost every Dark Wizard spell is learned from skill orbs: buy or loot an orb and click to learn it. Notable spells:
- Evil Spirit: the main AoE, clears whole screens of monsters, used the entire game.
- Energy Ball, Power Wave: basic early spells when points are scarce.
- Fire Ball, Lightning, Ice: single-target spells by element.
- Nova: charges energy then bursts for very high damage (unlocks as Soul Master).
- Meteor, Inferno, Aqua Beam: high-damage AoE spells later on.
Buffs: Soul Barrier reduces % damage taken (very strong in PvP), Teleport blinks away from melee (Soul Master).
Stat build for Dark Wizard
- Energy: magic damage, put the most here.
- Vitality: add to survive (very low HP).
- Agility/Strength: just enough for gear.

See How to craft wings at the Chaos Machine.
Playstyle & leveling
The Dark Wizard clears monsters fastest thanks to AoE Evil Spirit, but is very squishy, so fight at range and cast from outside. Great for offline leveling in static spots, and very valuable in a party (clears packs for everyone).
- Early: stack Energy, add only enough Agi/Str for gear.
- Mid: add a little Vitality so you are not one-shot; farm Blood Castle for HP/MP-recovery Excellent gear.
- Late: Soul Barrier + Vitality to hold up in PvP.
Farming route by level (monster levels from the muss6 config). Use offline leveling (/offlevel) to grind while logged out, and Reset at level 400 to replay stronger.

PvP & party role
Burst magic damage: Nova and Evil Spirit delete targets fast, while Soul Barrier cuts incoming damage for surprising survivability and Teleport dodges gap-closers. The big weakness is low HP, vulnerable to a Dark Knight/Rage Fighter closing in, so keep distance and invest in Vitality.
- Party role: AoE damage, clearing packs and crowds.
- PvP: kite at range, keep Soul Barrier up, time Nova when the enemy is caught.
