They're obviously terrified of all the Magus'ses deadly daemonic monstrosities and want to cut them off at the source.

Magus in t3 actually has amazing damage. The problem is cleanse nerfs it badly.

Has Order stopped spamming Magi movie names in /advice yet? When I logged off last week it was still going strong about eight hours later...

Amazing numbers on sc scoreboard? AOE stagger breaker spec? :lol:
Single target Magus specs focus on direct damage and don't lose much with cleansing.

I also never had any problems getting rr or levels. It really does sound like they are not being played correctly.

Agreed, I wish we could be as l33t and awesome players as you. Please teach us all how to play oh so awesome player :mrgreen:
You don't need to stand in 1 place to cast stuff. Move in the range to throw a dot, move out, keep the distance. And if someone tries to close on you just kite them to death.
You're wellcome ;)

tehe...amazing damage. This is how you differentiate a good player versus a bad one. A magus can hit over 150k in t2 constantly, that doesn't mean his damage was "amazing". But I'm sure Sulorie and I wouldn't know, we didn't play magi on live nor did we have r100 magi :roll:

To the previous poster....I hope you're trolling.

Magus is powerful endgame as a ST assist once you get:

* A spec that has both BOC and IFOC;
* Enough crit;
* A good group to assist with

However, if you don't meet ALL of those criteria, then you will only be effective as an PBAOE Rifter - and you can still be effective at that! Magus PBAOE DD is severely underrated.
