I have not yet level to level 21 and has no colton yet.

Can some mages try this build:

Passive:
5 Knowledge
5 Damage

Skills:
Arcane Shield: 1,2,4,5
Fireball: 1,2,4
Lightning: 1, 2

Pet:
Colton

This may fall under Mage section, but I have not try this build due to level and the expensive pet. Can some one try this build and see if it is workable ?

This build is to hide behind warrior (same as rogue).

I don't think this works, for both PvP or PvE...
First, u should have enough 4 active skills, we r mages, we use skills all the time. Use 1 more skill like heal or lightning or time... whatever u think is good for u. If u want survive longer, use heal, if you want deal more dame, use lightning, if you want PvE, use time shift.

Get rid of 5 damage point in passive, it's a useless passive. Use point in active skill or to might (+str).

Honestly, I think passive skills need to be improve. Now all players use points on might(+str), knowledge(+int) and agility(+dex), because these skills boost their stats much more higher than the rest of passive skills. For example, quickness is a good passive skill since it boost run speed, however, 5 point for 5% faster is too little, it should be 2-3% per point, with that some people may think about put some points on it, it will vary builds and create differentiation for different style. The same for other passive skills.

I wonder how does the multiplexer work for this game.

Does 1% mean 1%? Or does it compute 1% with some other processing formula that give higher % output.

I tried on defense, movement, damage. It seem little to no effect. Critical does have improvement but merely 5% for max.

If it is 1%, let say defense is at 1,000 def for a warrior. 1% is 10 def. For 1 precious skill point to input on passive, is it worth the deal?

For damage, does it mean 1% of what you been hitting? If i hit a player 100 damage each time, 1% is increase of 1 damage per time. I hope i am wrong on this.

I tried on rogue for 3 skills, 2 passive. It work wonder. I figuring out if 3 skills could work well with sorc / mage toon.
