So you're a new or maybe even a pro player and want to gain (more) knowledge about Magicka?
This guide is what you're looking for!

It covers:
  • the controls & element system; basically what you can learn in the tutorial, but more detailed (the shield element has an own section!)
  • status effects; describes status and their effects (burning eg.)
  • the robes; equipment, traits and combat tips for most robes(the cyber robe has an own section!)
  • the magicks; a list of all magicks. With proper description also.
  • the spells; a list of good spells, what they do and how to use them
  • general combat tips; self-explaining
  • PvP combat; an introduction to PvP and advanced stuff
  • going mutliplayer; some explanation how to host online, what to do and what to avoid
  • PvP Game Modes; some information about the three "sub game modes" in PvP
Note: Almost everything in this guide has images and videos. It's way more than just plain text! ;)
Another note: The guide started off as PvP guide and Auron and me are both PvP players. So expect the content to be influenced by PvP aspects.

A modpack me and Auron Darkmoon made. Special thanks to Netriak and Dikharz.
It adds about 20 PvP maps and one challenge map.
The PvP maps are areas from adventure and challenge 'ported' to PvP. No brand-new content.

Very detailed and informative guide. Should be stickied.

Performance Enhancement is clear to me now. But I still don't know what Spray of Judgement does.

But you should edit the title. It's misleading.

Yaah, I was (and still am) a bit sloppy with the magicks. I guess I'll put a little .GIF there with a short description. Thanks for reminding me.

What title do you mean? This threa'd title or the guide's?
(I find both appropriate :p)


Oh and don't forget Auron Darkmoon. Without him there wouldn't be a PvP Guide or Robes section. He also added some details here an there.

Your wish shall be granted...
