Enshrouded Wizard Build - Elemental Fire, Ice, and Lightning from Range

This is the Wizard path deep-dive. Enshrouded has no fixed classes - the 12 paths in the Forging the Path tree are a navigation aid, not a lock - so the Wizard build means allocating along the Wizard path until your build becomes Wizard-like. Below: the stat to invest, the first skill picks, the weapon and armor that fit, and where this path lands in a group. Exact skill names and point costs are marked verify at 1.0.

What the Wizard path is

Elemental magic (fire, ice, lightning) from range. The Wizard kites from distance, which beats melee for low-HP builds, and can match its element to a boss’s confirmed weakness - an ice build is worth a lot on a fire-weak fight. Kite and sustain.

Stats to invest

Intelligence for magic damage, Spirit for a large mana pool to keep the elemental spells up.

First skill picks

Weapon and armor

Wand or staff - the elemental DPS type. Match the element to the boss. The best weapons guide has the magic weapon breakdown.

Wards for self-sustain, legs for the kite. See the best armor guide for the magic breakdown.

In a group

Ranged magic DPS. The Wizard covers the magic range a physical build cannot, and the elemental weakness match is worth a lot against bosses. See the bosses & dungeons hub for each boss’s confirmed weakness.

The co-op team planner maps where this path fits for team sizes 1-8.
