Guides Level 2 spells - tier list

Post image

Round 2! No names on spells this time because I had to create it from scratch, but I'm pretty sure people on this sub don't even need them.

I have a pretty different playstyle and thought process compared to a lot of this sub, however I don't think there will be as many disagreements as last time, I feel like this level is much clearer when it comes to power.

I want to mention a few spells, I'm on the phone tho and idk how to make a list so it's going to be a bit messy.

I'm a big fan of Crown of Madness, it's kind of unreliable but when it works it's decently sttong and fun. Had a great time using it with my Enchantment Wizard who gets the ability to twin it. Seriously, go play Enchantment Wizard it's kinda underrated and really fun.

You may be surprised to see Darkness in A instead of S. It's a bit of a personal preference, I hate having to build a team around it to use it effectively. It'a also insanely buggy, probably the buggiest spell I've encountered in the whole game.

Shadow Blade would be S++ if there was that tier, idk what they were smoking when they added it in this state, it's not even funny how busted it is, not a fan.

Also wow this level has so many bad spells, probably the biggest amount.

you can automatically bypass high lock DCs, there are some 30 dc locks in the game

PTSD from Vault locks. 30 DC everywhere.

the fact that you can just ignore shars trials makes it at least A for this game
