A Guide to the Mage Class in Dragon Age 2: Elemental Spell Tree With the class introduction and useful attributes covered, the spell trees are detailed on the next few pages.
Cunning and dexterity are the attributes you’ll boost for those statistics. I had no problems with the two Mages I had in my party dealing damage, even though I didn’t really improve my Mage’s critical hit chance and damage. When it comes to willpower and magic, I found myself putting a lot of points into them and I was playing on hard (I put most points into magic). So, why does health and defense not matter much? They don’t matter as much because if your tank is doing their job properly, then your Mage shouldn’t be getting hit. While you have to worry about about critical hit chance, defense, critical damage, damage, stamina and health amongst other thing things for them, you only really have to worry about your mana pool and spell effectiveness with a Mage. However, the attributes are a bit easier to manage in comparison to Rogues and Warrior. The Mage does have multiple attributes that are useful to the class. Dragon Age 2 Mage Guide: Useful Attributes for the Mage There are also some spells in the Entropy spell tree and the cold spells in the Elemental tree can freeze enemies. When it comes to crowd control, there are some glyph spells in the Creation spell tree. There’s the Elemental spell tree and while it’s nice, a favorite is the Primal spell tree because lightning magic can stun enemies. When it comes to the Mage filling the damage dealer role, there are plenty of spells that you can purchase to help with that. Also, while buffing spells cannot really be classed as healing spells, the Mage does have access to buffing spells in the Creation tree and then there are other spells in the Arcane spell tree. It’s still essential though because potions and the Heal spell share different cooldowns. This spell has a 40 second cooldown, so it cannot be used often like potions can’t. The reason for this is that there’s only one healing spell in the Creation spell tree (minus the Spirit Healer specialisation). Regarding the healer role, it’s important to note that healing is quite different in Dragon Age 2 when compared to Dragon Age: Origins. Those roles are healer, damage dealer and crowd controller. The Mage is a really enjoyable class and it can fill three different roles quite nicely.
