Playing As Pyromancer

  • Pyromancers have a phenomenal early game due to Fireball's high damage + Ignite from Pyromancer Skill1 Combust.
    • The tick damage numbers from Ignite can also serve as a way of tracking opponents.
  • When paired with the Toxic Gauntlet, you can ignite Toxic Clouds into deadly Dragonfire explosions.
  • The Flamewall has lots of uses, including zoning, cutting off areas, and finishing off opponents etc.
  • When fighting Frostborns & Toxicologists, take cover behind your Flamewall to block their spells.
  • Try to stay on high ground as much as possible, and use Pyromancer Skill2 Firefly if necessary. It makes hitting your Fireballs much easier. Furthermore, if you miss your Fireball from this angle, it has a chance to deal AoE damage when it hits the ground.

Playing Against Pyromancer

  • Due to Fireballs' slow projectile speed, they become vastly easier to dodge at longer ranges.
    • For the same reason, Pyromancers also struggle with hitting airborne targets.
  • Be wary of their many AoE options such as Pyromancer Skill1 Combust. All of them are ground based, so you can escape to the air for safety.
    • If you're a Stoneshaper, you can instead use their fires against them by firing a Shockwave through it, leaving a Fire Trail.
  • While you should generally avoid fighting Pyromancers up close, their Fireball & Toxic Cloud explosions can inflict self-damage.
    • In addition, firing Toxic Clouds at a pyromancer that is sending fireballs constantly can be a nice way to chip at their health.
  • Dragonfire explosions and Flash Freeze will clear an area of all fires, including Flamewall segments.
  • Many Sorceries can block Fireballs, Tornadoes and Wind Shears can even deflect them! See Elemental Interactions.

Playing As Stoneshaper

  • Make the most out of Stoneshaper Skill1 Stoneskin by using Shockwave while you're repositioning, not just in combat.
  • Save a rune charge for when your armor has been broken, this buys you time to safely regenerate it.
  • Mixing Stoneshaper Skill2 Bedrock with hover-cancels efficiently can make your movement & shockwaves noticeably more unpredictable.
  • Shockwave will often force an opponent to expend lots of mana by escaping into the air with levitate.
    • Take advantage by aggressively applying pressure with your secondary Gauntlet while they recharge.
    • When combined with fire, Shockwave will leave a deadly Fire Trail, complementing its ground zoning.
  • Stoneshaper Skill3 Accretion increases Boulderfall's size substantially, becoming nearly unavoidable in confined areas.
    • It can also be used defensively to block an opponent's Spells.

Playing Against Stoneshaper

  • Stoneshapers are extremely terrain dependent. Since Shockwave can only be used on the ground, they struggle against airborne targets.
  • Control the flow of battle by staying above them at all times. They'll be forced to resort to their secondary gauntlet.
  • Be mindful of Boulderfall's surprisingly high burst potential once Stoneshaper Skill4 Avalanche is unlocked.
  • Having the least mobility of all the classes, Stoneshapers are reliant on their rune to reposition and chase opponents.
    • Go on the offensive while their rune is on cooldown and their escape options limited.
  • Most sorceries and Elemental Interactions are ground based, this can force a Stoneshaper off the ground.

Playing As Toxicologist

  • Use Toxic Spray's Corrosion to slowly chip away at an opponent's remove armor before going in for the kill.
  • Toxicologist Skill2 Vanishing Mists offers exceptional combat mobility, use it to close the gap or ambush your opponents.
    • Jumping at the end of the dash lets you avoid the ground's friction and retain momentum for longer.
  • Utilizing Invisibility from runes, you can trigger Toxicologist Skill3 Outbreak multiple times for immense burst damage.
  • Igniting Toxic Clouds into deadly Dragonfire is a great way to finish off an opponent, especially with Toxicologist Skill4 Spreading Sickness.
    • However, use this combo with caution, as you lose your mobility option from Toxicologist Skill2 Vanishing Mists.
  • Initiate fights in tight corridors where it is harder for opponents to avoid your burst.
    • Toxic Puddles and Clouds prove to be tremendously difficult to deal with in these spaces as well.

Playing Against Toxicologist

  • Place down the Flamewall as cover if you get ambushed, as Toxic Spray shots cannot pass through it.
  • Blow up Toxic Clouds with fire to deny their mobility from Toxicologist Skill2 Vanishing Mists & Toxicologist Skill3 Outbreak chances.
  • Tracking Tracking or damage over time effects will reveal their position while they're Invisible.
    • To this end, breaking their Invisibility through AoEs from sorceries is also a viable strategy.
  • Toxicologists are mainly lethal at close range, so keep at a distance through wise Rune & Dodge usage.
  • Wind Shears' unique ability to create Toxic Mist is a potent counter to Toxicologists that aren't careful.

Playing As Conduit

  • Lightning Bolts are the fastest projectiles in the game, making them excellent for both long range poke and chasing down stragglers.
    • When used for poking, limit your bursts to three or four bolts at a time to maintain accuracy.
    • In addition, they are a hefty counter to airborne opponents who have less options for taking cover.
  • Capitalize on your long range by climbing up high towers, mountains and the like.
  • While you can't cast Spells during Lightning Strike's cast animation, you can still use your rune charges.
  • Activate Conduit Skill2 Overload often, even outside of combat, to ensure that you always have an extra rune charge at the ready.
  • Conduit Skill4 Secondary Strikes allows you to more easily cut off choke points for exceptional zone control.

Playing Against Conduit

  • While Conduits have great sustained damage, they lack burst.
    • Use this to your advantage by taking quick trades and breaking line of sight.
  • Their mobility is limited while firing bolts, making them an easy target for most sorceries.
  • Apply pressure in order to force them to Dodge or use a rune charge, this will reset Conduit Skill1 Potential Energy.
  • Conduits struggle to track opponents in close quarters combat, so close the distance whenever possible.

Playing As Frostborn

  • Frostborn Skill1 Frozen Alacrity grants you high mobility, especially when traveling long distances.
    • This is very convenient for aiding your squad in reaching Mana Vault New Mana Vaults before your opponents.
    • When jumping off the trail you can maintain the same speed until you levitate or land on the ground.
  • Remember to make use of Frostborn Skill2 Icicle to scout an area for nearby players, or to keep track of an opponent.
    • When combined with Fracture Vents for extra height, you can gather intel on even more remote fights.
  • Flash Freeze can quickly turn the tide of battle by blocking potent projectiles or Freezing opponents for a free shot.
    • Perfecting the timing of the sorcery for Frostborn Skill3 Tundra's short immunity is key to success.

Playing Against Frostborn

  • The Ice Lance spell has the highest mana cost in the game. This severely hinders their damage output in the early game.
  • Frostborns are considerably vulnerable at close range, since they can't charge-up Ice Lance fully without becoming an easy target.
  • Ice Puddles are susceptible to many detrimental Elemental Interactions, such as applying Shock when electrified.
    • Be on the lookout for distant Ice Puddles, as they often give away an enemy Frostborn's location.
    • Unlike other classes, Frostborn's mobility in heated combat is very limited. Keep up the pressure once you close the distance.
  • Remember that Flash Freeze doesn't block projectiles from above or below. Sneak a shot in by Levitating overhead.
    • Alternatively, visit the Frostborn Shrine or use Hardened Hardened's freeze reduction to mitigate their sorcery altogether and put them on the backfoot.

Playing As Tempest

  • Tempest is arguably the most mobile class in Spellbreak once a player masters how to use Tempest Skill1 Wind Surge.
    • Chain your Wind Jump together with Dodge or Dash to extend the distance covered.
    • Remember that you can wind jump off walls, trees, rocks etc. to utilize the skill to its full potential.
    • Practice a technique known as "Windrunning", where you move sideways instead of backwards as you wind jump off walls.
      • Once you've gathered momentum, quickly turn the camera in the direction you want to move.
  • Capitalize on the effects of Tempest Skill3 Squall and Tempest Skill4 Sudden Gust by staying in the air for as long as possible.
    • To further this goal, save Tempest Skill2 Updraft for when you run out of mana.
  • Unique to Tempests is a reliance on their secondary gauntlet for dealing damage. Choose wisely.
    • Wind Shears can deal high consistent damage, but is best used for finishing off opponents.
  • Wind Shears can be used defensively to deflect fireballs, boulders and even Toxic Clouds.
  • The Tornado is immensely disruptive to other classes, due to its wide variety of Elemental Interactions.

Playing Against Tempest

  • Tempests can be slippery, but it requires them to fire Wind Shears at the ground rather than at you.
  • Tempests cannot change direction as fast in the air as they can on the ground.
    • They're therefore vulnerable to being sniped by fast projectiles such as Ice Lance or Lightning Bolt.
  • Use their Tornado against them by mixing it with other elements to their detriment.
  • Wind Shears' damage falls off drastically with distance, limiting their options for DPS at long range.
  • Tempest's mobility is largely only vertical and defensive in nature. They cannot use it to chase after you.
    • Exploit this weakness by initiating or fleeing a fight after a quick trade using your own class mobility.
  • Limit their use of Tempest Skill1 Wind Surge and other skills by taking fights into tight spaces and castles.
