I stated earlier that you will want to upgrade your Immolate ability. It cannot be overstated how much extra damage Immolate procs provide, especially in a trial where clear times are of the essence.

Critical rating is important later and anyway you can get it is good.

This shield, especially at higher trials, is the difference between life and death for a mage. The set bonuses for Apprentice are as follows:Ģ pieces- 25% chance for a protective shield when attacking. The 6-piece bonus is particulary strong for Apprentice. As you gather gear, it's worth getting the full 6 piece bonuses for either Arcanist or Apprentice as opposed to constantly breaking the set because any 1 random individual piece has better stats than the corresponding set piece. Of these Arcanist and Apprentice are far superior and for topping the leaderboard only Apprentice will do. For mage, there are 3 gear sets- Adventurers, Arcanist and Apprentice. As a result, set-piece gear is quite important for making your life easier during gameplay. The set pieces give various kinds of ability or attribute bonuses based on the number of pieces of that gear you have equipped. When it comes to mage gear there are random pieces and set pieces.

I joined the game a couple of months ago and have been reading a guide from last year on the makingfun forum, but it doesn't mention the elemental regalia set, only the other 3.
