Fire/Poison Wizard guide: breakpoints and what your skills really do

Fire Arrow with a burn on top, Poison Breath, and Meditation for the party. Type in your stats and see how many attacks each monster takes, your hit chance and the best maps for you, worked out from this version's own skill data and damage formulas.

Fire ArrowBasic Attack 180 plus a burn of 50 Basic Attack over 3 s, for 28 MP. Fire element.
Poison BreathMP -40; Basic Attack 90, Mastery level 10; 75% success rate, deals 40 Basic Attack over 5 sec.
Meditation+25 Magic for the party, 5 minutes.
Burns ignore defenceThe damage-over-time formula never reads the monster's defence, so burns and poison do full damage to tough monsters.

Your breakpoints copy your numbers from the stat window

Attacks per kill: 1 · 2 · 3+. "2–3" means 2 on a good roll and 3 on a bad one, if every attack hits. "Hit" is your chance to hit; MP and EXP per attack include misses. Final Attack, burns and crits count in the average and the good roll, never in "every time". Counted: defence, elements, the level penalty, accuracy. Maps are ranked by EXP per attack with each map's monster mix; spawn speed, walking and other players aren't counted. Empty fields are estimated from your stats and skills; your own numbers from the stat window are better.
