Personally never liked crystal mage even though it was cheap.

One of the best crystalline mages I've fought was named Giraffecorn, he had a 5/6 Fire build with it, so that's a start.

5 Firestorm, 4 Heal, 1 Frostbite, 6 Blessing of Might, 4 Blessing of Vitality, 1 Mana Shield, 2 Drain, 3 Lightning

I'd keep fire at 5 bc the 12m range is important with crystalline....

Giraffecorn was 27, so I just gave him what I thought Gir's build was.

Depending on your preference, also I wouldn't recommend taking 1 off drain, seeing how at 2 it's DMG spikes heavily, if you don't get 2 drain, don't get it at all.

2 drain 1 m/s 6 BoM 5 BoV 2 Heal 6 Light 2 fire 1 Icestorm 1 Frostbite.

Use crit rings. Enuf int to use cryst then rest dex.

I'd advise you to do 27 first then do 26,25 later as most people (in my experience) were 27 when I was at 25, so if you start at 25 you're going to be at a disadvantage.

However if you dont take my advice, just take off 1 drain & 1 fire.

If you prefer high fire & kiting alot, swap 6 light to 6 fire and do 3 drain with 1 light instead. That worked nicely with Forg in my experience.


Vs Bears, ONLY use fire when they beckon, dont let them use cb on you.. If they land crip on you make sure then are frozen and not in 3-4/5m distance..

Vs Mages, Try to use BoV last.. Time their BoV then as it runs out, do Light icestorm drain frostbite fire heal light. This will 99.9% of the time kill them. If it doesn't make sure they dont nuke you, so survive via M/s or healing frost and playing carefully to outlast them.

Vs Foxes, fairly simple --> M/s ruins most foxes. Just make sure they dont stay in auto distance & make sure they die before your BoV runs out. (however more often then not they'll try to nuke you before their evasion runs out)

Vs Rhinos, just simply keep em rooted and spam light & heal when they dash so cancels their combo.


Hope you enjoy 25-27 as much as I did. My old chars were Wenchant & ThaWench.
