Leveling Path

📜 Follow the leveling path shown above, then max in order:

Firewall→ Hydra & Familiar → Ice Armor → Fireball

✅ Super smooth tree — no filler, all killer.

Mercenary

🎯Subo provides Seeker to reveal enemies and objects while helping with Mana sustain.

Take Molotov + Scorched Earth for extra Burning damage, then add Snipe + Incendiary Bolt to add again DoT pressure.

⚔️ Varyana grants atk speed buff

Together, they provide an excellent balance between survivability, damage scaling, and overall efficiency.

If you need more tankiness you can opt for Aldkin with field of languish or Raheir with bastion.

How it Plays

🔥 Start each fight by placing Firewall to control the area, burn enemies and build Overpower stacks while regenerating Mana with Fire Bolt.

🐉 Summon Hydra to apply constant pressure, deal passive damage and melt bosses.

🧙 Cast Familiar to boost your total DPS and gain powerful bonuses.

🛡️ Use Ice Armor for Barrier, Mana sustain and Survivability — adapt its timing to the situation.

🚀 Use Teleportaggressively to reposition, move through packs or escape dangerous situations.

✨ Stack burns, stay mobile… and let everything burn.
