Overview

Overview

The Void Mage presses nothing: Reflex fires the combo on its own, Will releases Focused Gaze on its own, and under Agony The Open Hand splits every projectile in two.

Good for: Echoes T12–T20 for players who want the damage coming out on its own, from range.

Strengths

  • Depends on neither crit nor Rupture
  • Loses very little health on the bench (shoots from range)
  • Hands-free: you only have to position yourself

Weaknesses

  • Tiny available health (79% sealed)
  • Two automation pieces + a Legendary gem
  • Less boss damage than Suspended Storm

In practice

How to play

  1. Open by entering the room and facing the pack.

  2. Keep your distance — the barrier doesn't hold much.

  3. Against packs, back off and let the shards pass through.

  4. Against bosses, strafe and never touch it.

  5. Careful: 21% of your health available, with no regeneration.
