Should you go all-in on magic or split between melee and casting? Pure casters have higher magic damage but are fragile. Hybrids are more versatile but less powerful in any single area.
Recommended Builds
#1: Pure Sorcery
Maximum magic damage. Comet Azur combo is exclusive to high-Int pure casters.
Why it works: 80 Intelligence for the hard cap means maximum sorcery damage. Comet Azur's full damage requires heavy Int investment that hybrids can't match while also having melee stats.
#2: Moonveil Magic (Hybrid)
Best of both worlds: Transient Moonlight + sorceries + katana melee.
Why it works: Moonveil hybrids sacrifice some sorcery damage for katana melee capability. The result is a build that handles any situation — ranged sorceries when safe, melee when needed.
#3: Carian Sword Sorcery (Melee Mage)
A caster that fights in melee range using magic swords. The most aggressive hybrid.
Why it works: Carian Slicer and Greatsword sorceries create a melee playstyle that uses Int instead of Str/Dex. You're technically a pure caster but you fight like a melee character.
