Spells

All 30 spells across the five elements.

Mages cast from the Casting Room at enemy rooms, at the enemy ship, or at your own rooms. Every spell has an element, a calling (Striker spells attack, Warden spells defend) and a mana cost. Offensive spells are stopped by enemy ward layers unless they pass at a higher spell tier. Magic & mages →
