Category:Stormlords

All mages learn some magic that harnesses the power of the sky, but only a few have the dedication to become Stormlords. Masters of the weather, Stormlords wield a unique arsenal of sustained damage-over-time spells. They are tougher than mages, but give up some of their surging power as they favor more reliable, consistant damage. Like all Prestige Classes, they retain the original class's Prime Requisite, in this case, Intelligence. Stormlords find the magic of Sorcerors to be a perversion of nature, and thus never gain access to that Remort Class.

Abbreviation: Stm.

Base Class: Mage.

Prime Requisite: Intelligence.

Stormlords in General

See Mages for an example.

Apparently only those races with Racial Nosun are incapable of becoming Stormlords.

• Although I've heard rumors there's an exception for Gargoyles

Stormlords SURGE ability is reduced from 1-5 to 1-3.

Stormlord Creation

To become a Stormlord you need to have three requirements:

1) Any race can become a Stormlord as long as they DO NOT have the no-sun racial.

2) The weather must be stormy (lightning).

3) Level 50 Mage.

Stormlords at Hero Tier

Training

You really only need to practice surge and disintegrate, concentration and shield block help if you are tanking. Practice your STM skills at 101, and either solo with disintegrate or use them in groups.

Devoting

SHZ is best for stats and enchanting, Bhyss is best for damage.

Fighting

Soloing: Get a decent set of ac, use the bots for spells, and surge 2ish disintegrate. Tortugas are awesome. To be able to use your stormlord spells you need to be on top of the target you're fighting; and you need to recast your sustained spells before every round of combat.

Tanking: Stormlords can tank same as mage, and to be able to use their stormlord spells they need to be on top of the target they are fighting.

Hitting: Make pretty decent hitters once they get some mana, cloudburst does better damage than disintegrate.

Healing: Can brandish at lower hero levels if necessairy

Stormlords at Lord Tier

Here is where STM shines. You won't have much mana, but it seems to last pretty well. Maelstrom doesn't do much damage with STM, but Thunderhead and blizzard are awesome. Use thunderhead and/or gale stratum and then either thunderhead or blizzard depending on how many mobs in the room. Can't use many commands while sustaining your weather spells but you will get a hang of it fast. If you got extra mana while regenning, toss in a spring rain for your buddies.

Stormlord Remort Options

Can remort races, but no classes, although when I type remort, it says sor is an option..probably a bug.
