MMORPG.com Age of Conan Correspondent Mike DeHart has written this new look at the Demonologist class in Funcom's Age of Conan.
Archetype: Mage Permitted races: Stygian Weapons: Daggers, crossbows, and thrown weapons Armor: Cloth and silk armor
Overview
The Demonologist is one of the few "true" casters in Age of Conan and is probably the class that most closely resembles a stereotypical mage. They specialize in offensive single-target and AoE (Area of Effect) spell damage, and have various defensive shields, stuns, and run speed buffs. They can summon a demon that will fight for the demonologist and provide his party with a small buff depending on the demon that is summoned. Many of the demonologist's spells also scale upwards with every level even if you haven't acquired a new rank yet so don't fret if you go some levels without any new spells. Your spell damage is determined by a combination of your magic rating and any specialization ratings (such as electrical magic rating). Just remember that Funcom has stated that this rating does not apply in PvP, in order to provide fairer player match ups.
