Welcome to my guide on the specializations you can choose for your mage in Siralim Ultimate.

This guide will provide you with the information on what each specialization of mage in the game gets for a starting creature as well as their unique perks, in case you are beginning the game, thinking of restarting, wondering which specialization to unlock next, or are simply curious as to what each mage is capable of, since the game itself doesn't provide you with all the information on mage classes other than the one you selected.

The game tells you a rough outline of what your class does and shows you the creature you can get when you begin your adventure, but you only learn about what your perks do once you've started the game. This guide hopes to give players more information ahead of time and aid in making a more informed choice.

Each section also includes my notes and observations on each specialization in general - feel free to skip these if you would rather discover things for yourself, of course.

Last updated on the 16th of September 2025, current as of game version 2.0.37.

Before choosing your specialization, you should be aware of the game's Class system. Classes are essentially categories that mages and creatures fit into, with certain common themes between them. Creatures are, under most circumstances, only able to equip spell gems of their own class, which limits the spells they will have access to. Each class is also strong against one and weak against another, in a circular manner. This table should give you a quick rundown on information about each class:


If you're having trouble remembering the class circle (don't worry, most newer players take a little while to memorize it), use this rationalizing aid to help:
Life persists beyond Death
Nature feasts on Life
Sorcery corrupts Nature
Chaos ruins the plans of Sorcery
Death brings an end to Chaos

The specializations you start with each get given two unique creatures at the beginning of the game. For those of you returning from Siralim 3, these aren't particularly rare creatures this time around, so don't worry about being locked out of getting the other specialization's starters. After the short battle tutorial is finished, you will be given another creature to start you off, effectively giving you two before you ever set foot in a realm. In addition, each class gets its own unique spell to start off with, to better synergize with the class you're using.

When starting up a new game you will be asked if you want to enable Advanced Options - if you do, one of these options, Random Start, will give you completely random starting creatures and a random starting spell if it is enabled. Keep in mind if you do so, this guide may not be able to give you accurate information on your start!

In this game, you gain Perk Points every time you finish a realm quest at the highest realm depth you've ever done. You gain 10 at a time for finishing your highest realm depth and 50 for defeating a storyline boss, so plan accordingly - unlocking powerful perks takes quite a while in this game and the game gets significantly harder as realm depth increases, so it's best to have a plan of what you want to unlock first.

Those among you who played Siralim 3 should very quickly be able to pick back up on this game, as the base game mechanics more or less work the same way. There are only two things to really make note of going into this game.

Firstly, as mentioned before, the starter creatures in Siralim Ultimate are not ultra-rare or super hard to find like the Godspawn starters in Siralim 3 were. In addition, specializations are now much easier and earlier to unlock and switch between, so the starting choice is really more of a time-saver than anything else. Godspawn still exist, but are found elsewhere - you can pick up your old friends eventually without too much of a fuss, so don't worry.

Secondly, some of you may wish to keep playing a similar mage to what you played in Siralim 3. In the following table I have noted the closest equivalents to Siralim 3's classes so you can hop right in to whichever one you want:


Any Siralim Ultimate class not mentioned in the table is effectively a brand new play style that does not correspond or play similarly to a class from Siralim 3.


If you're a complete beginner to RPGs/the series and have no idea what you're doing, go with Hell Knight as it is simple and easy to use.

If you're looking for a simple, strong offensive specialization, go with Hell Knight for physical attacks, or Evoker for casting spells.

If you want a specialization with strong defenses, go with Cleric for tanking hits, or Monk for evading hits.

If you like to shut down enemies to stop them from acting, Defiler is the most straightforward, whereas Sorcerer has a more complex and conditional take on the concept.

The rest of the specializations have various unique strategies, so read their descriptions and consider carefully if you're looking for something different.

Once you defeat a certain boss somewhat early in the storyline, you will unlock projects that, when completed, unlock the other specializations you didn't choose, as well as some advanced specializations. If you hit F on the specialization selection screen, you can choose one of these advanced specializations from the start.

Once you've unlocked other specializations, you can switch to them at any time without penalty using the wardrobe in your castle. The total amount of perk points you've earned is available to every class - so for example if you've earned 300 but spent them all on Druid perks, when you switch to Evoker you'll still have the full pool of 300 available for allocating on perks there.

On top of this, you can reset your perks at any time at the wardrobe for free if you want to try out different perks than the ones you selected, or need to rebuild your strategy.

Each Specialization has a series of achievements associated with it, "The Competent _" (e.g. "The Competent Necromancer"), for completing Realm Quests using that Specialization. At 50 quests and 100 quests you will be rewarded with new costumes you can switch to using the wardrobe.

A specialization's perks are available to be equipped by any specialization as Anointments, which is a feature that unlocks much later on in the game. By default you can equip five Anointments, but a particular specialization can equip even more.

These allow you to mix and match, building your team even further with the power of other specializations. Not every perk is available as an Anointment however, so each perk in this guide details whether or not each perk can be used as an Anointment.

Anointments must be gradually unlocked by defeating False Gods via Guilds, a feature that unlocks after defeating each Nether Boss twice, so it will be quite a while after finishing the story before you can get Anointments.

Once you have unlocked the Gate of the Gods, defeating every god within at level 10 difficulty or higher with a single specialization will cause that specialization to ascend, which grants you a unique decoration, creature skin, and unlocks the specialization's final perk.

Ascended perks will be marked as such on each specialization's section.

There's a fine line between genius and insanity, and it's difficult to say on what side of that line Animators reside. These fanatical magi spend their days perfecting their Animatus creations: unique creatures that grow more powerful as their master's dark experiments unveil new opportunities.

As an Animator, you will always have a unique creature in your party called an Animatus. Your entire battle strategy will likely focus on this creature. You can empower your Animatus, and even use your other creatures to make it stronger in combat.

Animated Gem (Dark Anima)
After the Animated Gem's master manually casts a spell, this minion casts one of its master's Spell Gems as well, chosen randomly.

For Animators, everything hinges around the Animatus - every single perk they have relates to it and enhances it in a broad variety of ways. Some of them such as Cogmind or Molecular Betrayal even weaken your other creatures to strengthen the Animatus even further. Perks that do not relate to the other members of your party strengthen the Animatus in other ways, such as Dancing Blade and Dark Anima making its equipment more powerful, and Desensitization and Forbidden Magic giving it defensive options.

It's a rather all-in strategy and a dark counterpart to the Druid, and your other creatures will find little benefit from the perk set, so try to find creatures that complement the Animatus's strength using the perks that affect creatures within certain positions of the party.

Animator anointments can be obtained by defeating Hydranox.

The Blood Mage is a deranged spellcaster who is willing to do anything to overcome his foes - even at the cost of his own creatures' lives. This menacing spellcaster is adept at manipulating the lifeforce of allies and foes alike in his endless pursuit for power.

As a Blood Mage, your creatures will grow more powerful as they take damage. To facilitate these effects, the Blood Mage offers a variety of different ways to inflict damage on his own creatures.

Bleeding (Bloody Massacre)
Creatures with Bleeding take damage equal to 30% of their current Health at the start of each turn. Creatures that are resistant to Bleeding take 66% less damage from this debuff.

At first, Blood Mage seems like a high-risk high-reward class since it offers a lot of power in exchange for taking damage or being on low health, but perks such as Hemostasis and Sanguine Fortitude mitigate that risk considerably, giving Blood Mages an array of both offensive and defensive options.

In addition, since Blood Mages thrive off damage taken with perks such as Blood-Caked Blade and Sanguine Fortitude, they have a degree of resistance to battle attrition and will get stronger as the battle continues, though not to the same extent as Reavers. They can also synergize highly with the Bleed status effect since it will always be applied to enemies.

Bloodmage anointments can be obtained by defeating The Ancestor.

Cabalists can conjure Spell Gems out of thin air to be used by their creatures at any given moment. These magi prefer to employ high-risk, high-reward battle strategies to ensure their victory.

As a Cabalist, you'll enable your creatures to cast spells that they normally wouldn't have access to. While other people's creatures might run out of Spell Gem Charges, you'll be able to keep your creatures well-stocked with fresh Spell Gems at the start of every battle.

Silenced (Unshackled)
Creatures with Silenced cannot cast spells. Overwrites Scorned. Creatures that are resistant to Silenced can still cast spells, but deal 50% less damage with spells.

Cabalists are somewhat unpredictable, but similar to Reavers will grow stronger as the battle carries on. Wild Magic and Invoke give your creatures random new spells during every battle, so you'll quickly find yourself becoming familiar with figuring out how to use what you've been provided with to your advantage.

On top of this, Evokers gain strength from the spells they're given in battle, with perks like Culmination, Hand of the Magi and Spellslinger synergizing with the amount of Ethereal gems you'll accumulate during battle to give you more power. If you can find spells or creatures that grant you even more spell gems, you'll get drastically stronger and stronger as the battle continues, though beware of strategies that disrupt or prey upon ethereal gem use.

You begin with a Djinn Dreamweaver, a powerful caster that uses an extra, random spell any time it casts a spell manually. This can have all manner of unpredictable effects, so be prepared for anything that might come of this.

Cabalist anointments can be obtained by defeating Mindwurm.

The best offense, as some say, is a good defense. Clerics protect their creatures with powerful healing abilities and steadfast barriers, ensuring that not even the most tenacious of foes can overcome them.

As a Cleric, you'll specialize in healing abilities, as well as buffing, resurrection, stat-boosting effects, and providing your creatures with protective barriers. Your creatures will be extremely difficult to kill.

Maximum Bonus: 50% additional damage

Holy Burst (ASCENSION)
Ranks: 1
Cost Per Rank: 1
Anointment: No
At the end of your creatures' turns, they Cast Holy Fire if they have Barrier.

Holy Fire (Holy Burst)
Enemies take damage equal to 30% of the caster's Barrier strength.

Blighted (Consecrated Ground)
Creatures with Blighted cannot be healed and take damage from healing effects equal to 25% of the effect.

Barrier (Guiding Light, Luminesce, Premonition, Saving Grace, Strength of Soul)
Barrier absorbs a certain amount of damage. After the maximum amount of damage is dealt, the buff is removed. Barrier strength cannot exceed 200% of a creature's Maximum Health.

By far the most defensive specialization, Cleric revolves all around making it ridiculously hard for your creatures to be brought down. A great deal of Cleric's perk set revolves around Barriers, which are essentially an extra health pool over the top of your main health pool which is depleted first before your actual health. Guiding Light, Luminesce and Saving Grace will allow you to put up and maintain barriers, while Premonition and Strength of Soul make your creatures stronger while they have them.

Outside of barriers, Clerics still have a lot of strong defensive options - Guardian Angel and Lenience mitigate incoming damage, whereas Greater Healing and Revelation ensure that any damage that does get through is quickly reversed. A notable gap in the Cleric's defensive arsenal is a lack of protection from debuffs, so it may be a good idea to find spells and traits that cover this weakness.

You start with a Unicorn Holycaster, another member of the Unicorn race - this one heals rather than revives, so the two can keep each other alive in different ways. Clerics get a lot out of healing and buffing, so try to find creatures that can apply or strengthen buffs or throw good heals around to get the most out of your perks.

Cleric anointments can be obtained by defeating Saint Althea.

The difference between good and evil is often a matter of perspective, but the morality of a Defiler is simple enough for anyone to decide. These dark magi take sadistic pleasure in afflicting their adversaries with crippling diseases, reducing them to weakened husks that no longer have the capacity to defend themselves.

As a Defiler, you'll specialize in debuffs and stat-reducing effects. Enemies will be so weak that your party will be able to easily pick them off, even if they were originally much more powerful than your creatures.

Dread Spectre (Spectre/Death)
Trait: Creation Dirge
After this creature is Attacked, it decreases the enemy's Attack, Defense, Intelligence, and Speed by 25%.

Rather than making your own creatures stronger with perks like most classes, the Defiler chooses instead to weaken enemies and take away options they may have of defending themselves from you. The Curse perks knock out a significant chunk of enemy stats, so they'll be operating below their true capacity right from the start of battle - and perks like Tragedy, Hopelessness and Blasphemy limit the enemies options in recovering from or mitigating the weakening effects you heap upon them.

An important synergy Defiler has is with debuffs - while their effects are often debilitating to begin with, Defilers take this to another level entirely by ensuring they stick around longer, weaken them further, and with perks like Wane and Unholy Night, just cause direct damage simply by applying them.

The Dread Spectre you begin with needs to be attacked by enemies to leverage its weakening effect, but with your perk set the enemies will be hitting for rather feeble amounts of damage, so this is much less disadvantageous than it would otherwise be. If you can find creatures that apply or use debuffs to their advantage, they will synergize well with Defiler's perk set and weaken enemies even futher.

Defiler anointments can be obtained by defeating Loid Prime.

Evokers are the ultimate spellcasters. They excel at casting enhanced versions of spells multiple times in a row to overwhelm their enemies before they can act.

As an Evoker, you'll empower your creatures' spellcasting capabilities. Your creatures will be able to cast the same spell multiple times in one turn, and these spells will be much stronger than if they had cast them without your guidance.

Creatures with Silenced cannot cast spells. Overwrites Scorned. Creatures that are resistant to Silenced can still cast spells, but deal 50% less damage with spells.

Evoker does two particular things very well - offensive versatility, and sheer attack power. With almost no defensive options other than Outspoken (which, make no mistake, is a very important perk for such a magic-heavy specialization), Evokers go all-in on magical attacks with perks like Echo and Mirror Image allowing spells to be cast multiple times in the same turn, then Spell Power and Arcane Power making those casts hit even harder.

An important perk to take note of is Efficiency - without this perk, Echo/Mirror Image will very quickly make you run out of charges, leaving you with your main form of attack depleted. Meanwhile, the five Mastery perks allow free equipping of any class of spell gem on any class of creature, which gives you drastically more options in what spells you can bring and who to equip them on.

The Spider Occultist has excellent caster stats, and joins in with a magic attack any time one of its allies casts a spell - due to Echo and Mirror Image, this attack itself will often be repeated several times. If you can find creatures that synergize well with spellcasting, you will do tremendously well as an Evoker.

Evoker anointments can be obtained by defeating Caliban the Unredeemed.

Careful planning and uptight caution are nothing but a cause to doubt oneself. Hell Knights realize this fact, and instead opt to send their creatures charging headlong into battle, relying on brute strength and reckless attacks to ensure a swift victory.

As a Hell Knight, you'll favor creatures that specialize in attacking. Hell Knights grant their creatures increased critical damage and cause a variety of effects to occur when they attack. Hell Knights are surprisingly adept at spellcasting in a pinch, as well.

Savage (Magma Diver, Reckless Abandon)
Savage creatures have an additional, independent chance to deal critical damage with attacks.

Hell Knights are the specialization with the hardest focus on physical attacks, and they have a handful of other tricks just in case that attack strategies get shut down by enemies - though due to perks like Deadly Calm, Dreadnaught, and Indomitable, you will likely encounter these situations less often than other specializations would.

Getting the most out of this specialization will involve finding creatures that enhance your attacks further, finding ways to use on-hit effects and also launch extra attacks. The Asura Heartripper you are given to start with gets significantly extra damage on landing a critical hit, which synergizes well with Reckless Abandon - this will allow it to become a consistent powerhouse instead of relying on chance.

Hell Knights also have a smaller focus on the Burning debuff, so finding creatures that can use Burning in various ways will benefit you - especially with the Kindling perk that will make your first monster set all enemies on fire at the beginning of each battle. This is also a great way to still damage monsters that have found a way to stop you from attacking or punish you if you do.

Hell Knight anointments can be obtained by defeating Nebodar.

Burn the witch, judge the heretic, and slay the non-believer. Inquisitors make use of healing effects just as much for offense as they do for defense. They enact justice on behalf of the gods, and no one will be spared from holy rapture.

As an Inquisitor, you'll have a solution at your disposal for every problem you encounter. In addition, Inquisitors are able ot use healing effects for offensive purposes - for example, when your creatures heal enemies, they instead cause damage to them.

Inquisitor is something of an inverse of the Cleric - rather than using healing to augment their defenses, Inquisitors gain more offensive power as a result. In addition, many of their perks such as Admonish, Berate, Castigate, Condemn and Rebuke attempt to target specific weaknesses of classes to limit their available strategies.

Among their mixed options, Inquisitors also have something of an adaptive countering strategy, with Begrudge and Judgment trying to shut down enemy casters, and Contrition countering attackers. Divine Strength and Miracle use your defensive options by enhancing your damage output, and Flagellation allows you to outright weaponize heals by making them harm enemies.

The Valkyrie Scout you begin with counterattacks any time any enemy attacks, which will give you an edge especially if you synergize it with your anti-mage options. Beyond this, Inquisitors want to find creatures that can perform heals to get the most out of their perks, though since a lot of their perks weaken enemies rather than strengthen monsters, it isn't quite as paramount as it is with other specializations.

Inquisitor anointments can be obtained by defeating The Ancestor.

A strong defense is unnecessary when your foe is unable to strike you in the first place. Monks grant their creatures unmatched agility, enabling them to dodge incoming attacks and spells, and respond with devastating counter-attacks.

As a Monk, you'll boost your creatures' chance to Dodge attacks and spells. When your creatures Dodge, they'll unleash a devastating counter-attack on the enemy.

Agile (Good Karma)
Creatures with Agile have an additional, independent chance to dodge attacks.

Similar to the Paladin, the Monk revolves around using enemy attacks to launch counterattacks - but where the Paladin takes the hits that come their way, the Monk simply avoids them outright. Many of their perks such as Good Karma, Serenity, and Protective Winds increase the chance to dodge incoming damage, and then Celerity is used to offer counterattacks.

Celerity is a key perk since a number of others work off it - Blurred Strikes, Extended Reach, Pressure Point and Vital Strike all require Celerity to work, so strongly consider unlocking Celerity first. The order you want to unlock things in depends on whether you want to prioritize mitigating damage or dealing it back out, so think carefully about which perk you want to take next.

The Summer Aspect is a creature that has significantly large chance on its own to dodge attacks even before its considerable speed is factored in, playing into the Monk's perk set perfectly. Outside of this one, you may want to seek out other creatures with high speed and dodge-related effects to get the most out of your perks.

Monk anointments can be obtained by defeating Jotun.

Necromancers prefer to overwhelm their foes by summoning minions to aid their creatures in battle. Enemies are often so perplexed by the number of undead monstrosities charging at them from across the battlefield that they're dead long before they realize what even happened.

Minions are a special type of buff that offer enhancements to creatures that control them, but wear off more quickly. Necromancers mitigate this by keeping minions around longer using perks like Army of the Damned, Undying Loyalty and Midnight Bargain. They're also more adept at calling minions forth than other specializations, with a wide array of perks that summon up new ones.

In addition, they get stronger simply from having minions around - Meat Shield and Servitude stack up to offer power beyond what just the minions in and of themselves offer, which is usually considerable to begin with. They can also summon up the Four Horsemen much more easily, and if they get all four, they will start to snowball the battle in your favor by healing your own team and damaging the enemy team repeatedly.

The Dread Hound you begin with starts with and maintains a stack of Dire Wolves, a minion that enhances its master's attack power. Leverage this using your perks and other creatures that synergize with minion use to start battles with a great deal of immediate strength.

Necromancer anointments can be obtained by defeating Loid Prime.

Pyromancers quite literally thrive on watching the world burn. These maniacal magi ignite both friend and foe alike with a brilliant conflagration, causing their enemies to suffer gruesome deaths while empowering their allies with the power of flame.

As a Pyromancer, you'll make heavy use of the Burning debuff to deal damage to enemies over time. In addition, your own creatures will be afflicted with this debuff, but it will heal and empower them rather than dealing damage.

The Burning debuff runs off the inflictor's Intelligence, so to get the most effect out of this specialization you will want a casting team with high Intelligence stats - in addition, perks such as Kindle the Flame and Pyroblast do suggest using a team of casters to take full advantage.

Beyond that, your entire playbook revolves around the Burning debuff and it causing a ton of extra effects - find creatures that interact with Burning or debuffs in general and you'll get more out of this specialization. Keep an eye out for creatures that are immune to debuffs, but the amount of power you wield means you'll not have too much trouble with them once their allies are gone.

Pyromancer anointments can be obtained by defeating Nebodar.

Perseverance, an iron will, and a touch of insanity are the perfect recipe for victory. Reavers live and die by this mantra, instilling their creatures with a cold and calculated anger that allows them to grow more powerful during battle while their foes tire out.

As a Reaver, your creatures will gain massive benefits in combat as battle continue to drag on. If your creatures manage to survive for just a few extra turns, they'll be able to devastate your enemies.

An interesting specialization with mechanics that almost nothing else in the game uses, Reavers don't just get stronger as battles wear on, but actually grow stronger from winning prior battles within a realm too using the Reign of Chaos and Onslaught perks. Once you've got a few victories going within a realm, you should find yourself increasingly steamrolling battles - and for those you still find tricky, you can always just hunker down for a few turns, wait for your strength to gather, and then lash out with far more power than you started with.

Reavers are also unique in that they can not just immunize themselves against battle fatigue using Stimulation, but actually thrive off it with Sap. This makes them without peer when it comes to attrition tactics - which, using Rapid Exhaustion and Red-Eye Flight, sets in far sooner than it does for other specializations.

Almost all creatures will benefit from Reaver's perk set, but finding creatures that grow increasingly more powerful as time goes on will have the effects of their traits amplified even further - the Apocalypse you are given to start with gets more powerful the more turns it takes for example, and its somewhat tank-ish stats allow it to last long enough to ensure this happens.

Reaver anointments can be obtained by defeating Loid Prime.

Sorcerers are masters of controlling the battlefield. Why worry about offense or defense when your enemies can't move to begin with?

Using ridiculous amounts of trickery to completely shut down their foes, Sorcerers would no doubt be infuriating to fight against if they were opponents. The three Spell perks, Deep Freeze, Psychic Scream, Flabbergast and Singe all attempt to prevent opponents from taking actions at all, while others like Mental Fortitude and Fade allow your creatures to avoid certain enemy actions outright.

Other perks such as Gravity's Void and Solidarity enhance the Sorcerer's damage output in esoteric ways, though if your opponents have been shut down, then you'll have plenty of time to take your opponents out without them being able to retaliate at all.

The Frostbite Yeti that Sorcerers start with has very strong defenses and is able to freeze enemies, allowing you plenty of time to set up your strategy. Sorcerers synergize well with creatures that use or inflict debuffs, but given how many perks affect the enemy rather than your own team, it shouldn't be too hard to get most teams to synergize well with Sorcerer's perk set.

Sorcerer anointments can be obtained by defeating Mindwurm.

Wardens are all about buffs - gaining pairs of them for particular actions or events, leading to them rather quickly stacking up a large amount of buffs. If you can find creatures that share buffs around, your whole team will suddenly be very stacked up - and there are all sorts of creatures in the game that synergize with buffs in general or specific kinds of buffs to power them up further, so there's a lot to choose from to synergize with this perk set.

Do note that since the buffs are granted reflexively, you won't start battles at full power unless you pull a extra tricks with your team composition.

Warden anointments can be obtained by defeating Jotun.

When creatures with Cursed deal damage with attacks or spells, they take damage equal to 100% of their target's Attack.

Blind creatures cannot choose their targets when attacking or casting single-target spells.

Doppelganger (Vision Quest)
The Doppelganger's master has a 25% chance to take an extra turn.

Witch Doctors rely on getting the enemy to defeat themselves by causing them to damage each other more often, and make it much more debilitating when they do so. Perks like Bewitch, Maledict and Terrorize also cause somewhat of a cascading effect so that as the battle goes on, the enemy will cause additional attrition to themselves.

The perk set has a rather full reliance on this strategy however, and lacks options other than tricking the enemy - so beware situations where you may not have access to your usual tools, such as being blocked from inflicting debuffs or casting spells easily.

Witch Doctor anointments can be obtained by defeating Jotun.

Astrologers are magi who specialize in creating a sound strategy before each battle. Oftentimes, their plans are so well-constructed that their creatures are able to take combat into their own hands without any further input from their master.

As an Astrologer, you'll plan most of your battle strategies before combat even begins. Astrologers allow their creatures to act on their own under certain conditions.

This is an Advanced specialization and is not recommended for new players.

This is a very complicated specialization that requires a carefully planned team to take full advantage of. It essentially predefines roles based on your creatures' stats; the three with the highest intelligence have strong casting advantages, the highest attack creatures will attack automatically, the one with the highest speed will always counter attacks, and the one with the highest defense will provoke to automatically act as a tank, so you will want a statistically mixed team rather than going all-in on one strategy.

Consider which specialization role each creature will end up in based on their stats, and try to choose traits that synergize with that - on-provoke traits for the tank, attacking and casting traits for the creatures with the highest stat in each. Also keep in mind that there are general purpose traits such as defending when they have debuffs, and gaining stats at the start of each creature's turn, so its not all about slotting each creature into a meticulous role.

Astrologer anointments can be obtained by defeating Hydranox.

The Brewmaster believes that no problem can't be solved with a full mug of beer... or six. This unexpected hero generously distributes all manner of ales and cocktails to friend and foe alike - but all should be wary when the time comes to pay the bill.

This is an Advanced specialization and is not recommended for new players.

Booze spells, which are available to purchase from the Gambling Dwarves' shop, are usually powerful spells which can't be cast manually and only have a chance to go off at the end of a creature's turn - Brewmasters have the option to cast them manually (Brewmaster's Handshake), make them impervious to sealing (Straight Up) AND not consume charges (On The House). While these effects are powerful in and of themselves, perks like Inebriation and Numb the Pain also grant a Brewmaster absurd defensive power as long as they're able to stay in the fight and spam their booze spells as much as possible.

Throw in the standard-issue snowball perks like Liquid Courage and the fact that Booze spells are strong to begin with AND will still be automatically triggering as they usually would, and you have yourself a truly fearsome specialization in the right hands.

A very unique specialization, Demonologist has exclusive access to Lesser and Greater Demons, though Renounce the Light does make you pay the price of eschewing buffs and regular minions in order to get this access.

Demonologists favor a class-diverse team that features at least one of every class, else they will not be able to get access to Satanachia, and if ascended, Lucifer. Otherwise, the Greater Demons offer a significant power boost - Asmodeus and Belphegor offer drastic offensive benefits for attackers and casters respectively, Beelzebub and Leviathan synergize with the rest of the perk set, and Mammon is a strong defensive presence since the Protected buff is not available.

On top of this, your Lesser Demons in and of themselves supplement your attacks and casts, and turn defending/provoking into an offensive option - but that's not all, since Demonologist's perk set makes the sacrificing of these minions grant you lasting empowerment through perks such as Inner Demons and Soul Shield, so you shouldn't try to hold onto your Lesser Demons for too long - use them up and grow stronger, since you can always get more!

The Deprived was born with nothing and will die with nothing. Cursed with the intelligence of a sponge and the physique of a sickly child, the Deprived must make do with what little fate has left him with.

As a Deprived, you'll lose access to your most significant sources of power, including Fused traits, Avatar creatures, and Relic effects. This is a Challenge Specialization, and it will not appear at the Goblet of Trials after you unlock it.

This is an Advanced specialization and is not recommended for new players. It is also a Challenge Specialization, meaning it makes you weaker rather than stronger.

Cost Per Rank: 1
Anointment: No
You have a 100% increased chance to find Skins. This perk is always active, even if your specialization is not Deprived.

Don't forget that you can take it to realms outside of the Gate of the Gods, and completing 100 realms with it will unlock achievements and outfits.

The Doombringer draws magic from the Bastion of the Void to fuel his creatures with vast amounts of power. Doombringers specialize in allowing their creatures to perform actions multiple times in a row.

Doombringers are an interesting class in that it offers several options where rather than building your creatures' traits around your perk set, they simply power up whatever traits you are already using by doubling the effects and the value of those effects. However, there are diverse options that will allow you to use creatures in unintended ways by making healing, attacking and defending act as triggers for death, resurrection and provocation traits at the same time without actually performing those actions.

Doombringer anointments can be obtained by defeating Hydranox.

Dreamshades blur the line between dreams and reality. This mystical magi is adept at redirecting his foes' efforts for his own benefit.

This is an Advanced specialization and is not recommended for new players.

Enemies' Inverted debuffs lose 50% less potency when they activate.

Inverted (Antipode, Antithesis, Contrarian, Damned Visions, Delusion of Grandeur, Edge of Reality, Eternal Dream, Late Confessions, Lost in the Echo, Unfurling Nightmare)
Inverted creatures heal enemies instead of damaging them with attacks and spells, and damage allies instead of healing them. This debuff is removed after enough damage or healing has been done to offset its potency.

Blighted (Losing Touch)
Creatures with Blighted cannot be healed and take damage from healing effects equal to 25% of the effect.

With unique access to the Inverted debuff, you will be heavily reliant on maintaining and applying the debuff for your leverage. Thankfully it functions as a defense mechanism by causing enemies to heal you instead of doing damage, and you can leverage your Paradox perk to trigger your creatures' on-heal effects for additional trickery.

In addition, perks such as Counterintuitive, Hallucination and Question Everything invert negative effects into positive ones if you apply them to your own team, causing certain spells and traits to get new tactical leverage they did not have before.

Dreamshade anointments can be obtained by defeating Mindwurm.

Many people foolishly mistake a Druid's introversion for weakness. These magi believe that quality always trumps quantity on the battlefield. Contrary to tradition, they are often seen with fewer than six creatures at their disposal, but the havoc their limited numbers wreak when augmented by Druidic magic is a sight to behold.

As a Druid, you'll probably only want to have one (or up to three, later on) creatures in your party. Your creatures will gain massive benefits for being part of a smaller party.

This is an Advanced specialization and is not recommended for new players.

Druids get stronger the less creatures they bring with them, with maximum synergy achieved when you have only one creature with you. Outside of the Companion perk, every perk the Druid has relates to benefiting from not bringing a full team in just about every possible manner (and even the Companion perk allows you to simply ignore a handful of creatures when it comes to the perk benefits).

Since Druid's perks apply to pretty much everything, almost any creature can be used with it, though you often lose the benefit of team-based synergies in return, however Companion can mitigate this to a degree.

Druid anointments can be obtained by defeating Imp Impington Prime.

The Engineer's sole purpose in life is to build a bigger and better explosive than last time. This bombastic bombardier belays bombs to its opponent's backs, blasting them back to the bilgewater from whence they were born.

As an Engineer, you'll strap bombs to enemies and blow them to bits. The Engineer is also accompanied by their greatest invention: the Microbot minion!

Microbots (Drone Bait)
At the end of this minion's master's turn, each Microbots deals damage to a random enemy equal to 50% of its Intelligence. Maximum of 9 stacks.

Like Pyromancer, Toxicologist and Shadowbringer, Engineer goes all-in on a single status effect - that being Bomb. Do note that the only perk in this set that actually afflicts Bomb consistently is Primed and Ready, and only at the start of battle, so you will need to bring along something that actually afflicts additional Bombs, such as the Fireworks spell - note that Energy Efficient will make these spells be cost-free to cast, so you can go all-in on them in battle without too much worry.

Once you get the bombs rolling, Engineer's perkset snowballs rather quickly with perks like Extrusion causing the bombs to quickly escalate in damage, and Prototype having the bombs run off your highest stat, which will allow you to stat-stack to ensure they're doing as much damage as possible.

Fanatics devote their lives to serving the gods. From dusk until dawn, these magi toil away at a neverending list of demands to better-serve each of the 21 gods of Rodia.

Fanatics are generally considered an endgame class, since they hinge around the use of Avatars, which are only available some time after finishing the game's storyline. It can also use Godspawn, which you must get a god to Favor Rank 20 to earn. You will want a party comprised entirely of these creatures, since the specialization does not offer any kind of bonus to any other type of creature.

Since Avatars tend to have very powerful traits but you are only limited to one per party, Army of Gods' ability to bring three with you is absurdly strong - and you can get more within battle through use of the Martyr perk. Try to remember which Godspawn corresponds to which Avatar - the god you purchase it from is the Avatar you will invoke through "respective Avatar" perks. It may be better to not use an Avatar AND their respective Godspawn in a single party composition if you plan to make use of Martyr, as Avatar traits tend not to stack. Otherworldly and Unstoppable Force will also prevent your Ultimate Spells from being shut down or blocked by Silence and Seal, but bear in mind that other factors may prevent the casting of these spells.

Fanatic anointments can be obtained by defeating Saint Althea.

The Gladiator is a master of the arena, sporting tremendous proficiency with all manner of weapons. No sword, no axe, no bow is too difficult for this master of armaments to wield.

This is an Advanced specialization and is not recommended for new players.

It may take a bit of grinding out the Arena's rewards to get a solid plan for this specialization rolling, as unlocking the Living Artifact spells that are sold there may take quite a bit - though you can use Reprimand or Crowd Favorite to get random arsenal spells if you don't have them yet, so this specialization isn't a dead end if you haven't gotten around to it.

Besides this, another factor you'll want is making sure your castle's Blacksmith is fully upgraded, since the higher level an artifact is upgraded to, the more benefit it will get from Gladiator's slot-enhancing perks such as Elbow Grease, Nether Imbuement and Blacksmith's Boon.

Do be cautious to note that Gladiator features no anti-seal or anti-silence mechanisms in its perk set, so you may want to shore up your defenses by finding ways around these in order to ensure you stay at maximum flexibility and strength in battle. Reprimand could potentially be used to get around sealing, but only if you have ethereal spells available.

The Graveborn is a once-powerful warlock who was killed for his heresy and has since risen from the dead to wreak havoc on the living. This undead spellcaster is capable of bringing his creatures back from the dead with far greater power than before.

Immune (Unnatural Causes)
Creatures with Immune can't be afflicted with debuffs.

Graveborn should not be confused with Purgatorian despite the similar tone of the two - Graveborn is all about coming back stronger each time. Care should be taken to eliminate enemy traits that prey upon your creatures dying however, or you will find your main advantage rapidly turning into a liability since you only get three resurrections per creature.

This is a higher risk specialization since you may opt to let your creatures die a few times to get them up to full power - once they're on their last life, they will boast doubled stats, debuff immunity and significant bonuses to dealing out more damage and taking less - but if they go down anyway, they stay down. Use traits that synergize with resurrections to push your advantages even further.
