  • whats pro shield

  • tbh whip is better then flash

    i use gate mud ball mega boulder wind shield hurricane sb storm shield the 2 flight spells frost shards frost arrow vine whip deluge cog tower bftp cuckoo clock

  • @XGOD3210 no, its just i didnt know what spell that was...

  • thanks man my rating gone up a ton!

  • i never use flight, costs 2 spaces

  • WHATS THE PRO SHIELD

  • @ringsidechampvergil Protection shield, smart one.

  • you need prot shield

  • A good variation on this could be to replace mud ball, mega boulder, clock tower, and cuckoo clock; for shock bomb, shock sheild, ice sheild, and ice castle

  • FINAL FANTASY IX - Main Battle Sequence

  • ff9 music ftw

  • strategy: enemy hiding in a hole? instead of bombing first, use entangle, then thorn bomb and pwn them. =P

  • Brine bolt isnt 4 use only 0_0

  • switch last 3 to  blast from the past.. heal.. and peggy

  • Comment removed

  • brine bolt can be used over 4 times, its just glitched

  • Comment removed

  • Yup and u can even use them in Sandbox while F2P.

  • Comment removed

  • actually u keep them but they're limited to sandbox

  • @purecomady no

  • nice spells selection, i havent tried yet (just prestiged!) but i think it will be pretty good! I had sumthin like this but a few water ones and other ones i missed out.

  • Nice book, i cant use it tho -.-

  • F2P?

  • Naaah, I dont have the wands for it. :P

  • @XGOD3210 hes either f2p or hes unprestiged

  • bftp should still be included

  • This is the Spellbook I'm using at the moment:

    SNOW BALL > BRINE BOLT

    WATER BALL > PEGASUS

    MAELSTROM > BLAST FROM THE PAST

    and the other spells listed above...

  • do u know what the name of this song is?

    i love it awesome piano solo =D

  • Final Fantasy 9 - Main Battle Sequence

  • u included brine bolt, but in the annotation there was no brine bolt

  • whats bftp btw

  • Blast from the Past

  • I ABSOLUTLEY LOVE THIS BOOK!

    Thankyou so muchh!

  • nub book, u only got sb to kill all other spells dont hit much

  • That makes no sence, all of these spells combined are used for defeating your opponent.

    Heavy hitting attacks are mainly 2 - 4 use...

    What happens when you run out...

    ...ask for a draw? lol

  • if u run out and u havent win yet is cuz, either u missed or u weren't prepared for his hiding

  • LOL =)

  • really nice book! i will put in one sentence to describe this book, it is damn beastly. period.

  • Thanks for the answers!!

    Also, you think we could play a match sometime? Would like to test this book against its very creator =P

    About snowballs, I tried using them on tower vs tower battles, work great! Thanks for the tip!

    Anyways, I have to bother you with one question (you knew it was coming lol), is ice bomb actually better than SB? A guy dealt 150 damage to me with one lol.

    Well, that's basically all I have to bother you with (for now)

    Thanks,

    Don

  • Oh and I subbed to you =)

  • Thanks for the sub ;)

    Ice Bomb deals the most damage possible on a 1st turn doing 250 maximum. But can sometimes do much much less (sometimes as little as 5 damage!)

    Shock Bomb can does 80 damage when placed perfectly next to - or above an opponent (otherwise it will do less). It sinks your opponent on the same turn as dealing damage providing there is nothing blocking their path to the water.

    I once killed an entire team using den over their hole with Ice Bomb on my 2nd turn (3 x 250 hp)

  • (I meant to say)

    "Shock Bomb can do 80 damage"

    AND BTW...

    If your wondering how all 3 of them ended up in the same hole, my team quit on me and only I was left - my opponents were noobs who thought it would somehow be a good idea to all teleport into the hole underneath my den.

    I used Ice Bomb and to my surprise they all turned into purple smoke... lol

  • Only problem being you don't have BFTP in your book.

    As for weaknesses, it has got no attacks from far away (like deluge, fire arrows).

    Also, what's the point of snowball if you already have pebbles for towers? Could it be replaced with bfp or brine bolt? If yes, which one is best?

    Sorry to have to annoy you with all these questions lol, but I really want to improve with this book (or possibly improve this book)

    Thanks,

    Don

  • Attacking from afar is not necessary and is definitely not a weakness. Using spells such as flash etc you can reach your enemy in 2 turns or less from any point on the map.

    BFTP (Blast from the past) isn't necessary either as the whole point of this book is that it is reliable when it comes to spell usage - in this case most spells are rechargeable, where other books might run out after the first couple of turns.

    Snowball recovers ice tower the same time as damaging the enemy or their tower.

  • Hi X God,

    Donhambruna bothering you again =P. I have been using your book (the new one) for quite a while and I have worked out some of my own strategies with it. But, as we all know, no one is best using a spellbook than the guy that created it. I have seen your other videos and you never use this book, why's that?

    Also, think you could make one video (just one, PLEASE!!!) with this book. We would really love to see your great skill with it.

    Thanks,

    Don

  • Hello Don,

    Thanks for showing your interest in my videos. It is great to know my spellbook is being put to good use by you and other players in the Arcanists community.

    I made these videos with the intention of sharing my knowledge of the game, and helping people get further without cheating (like so many others have done).

    This was the spellbook which got me from roughly 2200 rating to 3210 which I have today. The reason this book is so brilliant is it has many different tactics.

  • I wont make a video instructing how to use this book, simply put - because there is NO right way to use ANY book.

    It all depends on what tactics your opponent brings to the table and that tells you how you should proceed. What I will say is this book great because it is balanced in both attack and defense and unlike most other books has no weaknesses.

    I wish you good luck in the matches you play and hope that we play each other soon.

    Regards,

    XGOD.

  • I dont have bftp or clock tower

    what others should i use?

  • Blast from the past is used for knocking fliers and untrapping yourself.

    Clock Tower is a rechargeable tower which only takes up one space in your spell list.

    Its hard to substitute any spells from this book because each spell compliments the others.

    However if you don't have them I suppose I would say replace:

    BFTP with Aura

    Clock Tower with Pegasus

    Pegasus takes one spell slot and is good for recovering hp protection wise and its drainable.

    Aura can turn enemies minions undead.

  • Awesome! They're both good.

    And what's the song called?

  • Uh, XGOD, You said they took Brine bolt to 4 uses. It's still unlimited. -.-

  • i know, someone did already ask me that lol :P and i answered them...

    If you look at brine bolt on the game it actually says "4 uses only" even though its unlimited - I'll put a note in the side bar for anyone else :)

  • Nice book btw.

  • Cheers...

    Make sure you put it to good use.

    :P

  • this is garbage

  • Like your "undetectable xfering skillz"

    LMFAO

  • looool yerrr...

    everyone knows sean / psa transferrs rating, wand draws with anyone and everyone he can - while begging in the lobby for games against 1k'ers to make himself look good - coz he needs to look good on the game he plays for 20 hours a day coz he has no life and thinks life is the internetz ROFLMAO

    psa-pocahontus needs to stop hiding in the bushes - trying to dodge jagexs ban system... and needs to get some real rating - the tard...

  • Couldn't have put it better myself!

    Fair play...

    XD

  • ehh, if psa says its garbage.. it probably is... but i tried it.. its pretty good.. 5/5! ^^

  • psa also says that "he doesnt xfer"

    that amongst other things he says are garbage...

  • post a vidio of u usin it

  • mm nive spellbook

  • Uh... Brine bolt is unlimited use.

  • yeah, jagex were going to reduce it to 4 uses only...

    seems like they changed their mind...

    if you look on the spell list you can actually see "brine bolt (4 uses)"

    and it IS unlimited... lol

  • nice spells ill make sure to make them to my best abilities :p although whats water ball for :o?

  • Water Ball is needed to get Maelstrom.

    - but its a spell that eats through land in a similar way to Pebbleshot, say for instance you need to get down to the sides on grassy hills you will be glad you had this spell avaliable.

  • BFTP should always be a must, and by the way, i saw you in the lobby the other day =p

  • The sole purpose for bftp, is to knock down flighters. I would rather have my entangle or my nature tower in my full nature do that.

  • but entagle uses up an ENTIRE TURN just nkocking then down without doing damage, may was well mud ball for all its worth

    e

  • even if entangle severely limits movement, the effect wears off as soon as they take any damage whatsoever

  • And teleporting. It's still an amazing spell.

  • true dat

  • well not to get any hate or anything but dont most plp have that spell book now a days, nothing wrong with the spells themselves i would just like to see some origanality here.

    nice vid by the way 5/5

    ps love that u put maelstrom and shining dont see to many plp with that now a days. =]

  • plp?

  • trainer488 >:(

  • i use drain bolt in singles matches to win everytime usually when they get down to 50 ill thunder em for the ko or steal their minion

  • BFTP = Blasr From The Past.

    It is the Cog-Spell, who makes 5 damage and doesn´t end your turn.

  • I use... arcane gate, rain of fire, rain of arrows, wind shield, shock bomb, frost shards, ice ball, ice bomb, pro shield, den of dark, sph of healing, vine whip, vine bridge, clock tower, cuckoo clock and bftp

  • What is BTFP? For whoever tells me thanks.

  • Blast from the past

    You said

    BTFP its

    BFTP

  • any tips against lich?

  • sink the vase if u can, really helpful

  • It's nerfed, but still possible, I can try to make it and vid it, ok? - Matta

  • I'd rather use pepple shot, as it can do 100 damage to towers to, and usally trap them.

    - Matta

  • I've never heard of pebble shot being able to trap, but I would definitely like to see that.

  • This isn't really good, without any tower that heals, clock tower is useless, people usally one hit it. And snowball i find useless to, it does low damage and the snow annoys me. Maelsrom is also kind of useless, people usally dont stay low enough on the field to get hurt badly by it, and they can easily tele away. Rest is something i use myself (2798 rating).

  • You have your own opinion and im sure other people have theirs too. Having two rechargeable towers immediately gives you a big advantage, as it prevents you from dying quicker. A healing tower like light, or den are useless when somebody uses snowball on it and destroys is in one turn. There goes your "one use" tower... gone to an amazing 100 damage dealing snowball attack. Maelstrom can sink someone in the 1st turn it is used, if you know how to use it properly...

    Thanks for your comment.

  • K, thanks for answering =)

  • Hey XGOD I had a little question for you,

    My spellbook is the following:

    Arcane Gate, Mud Ball, Mega Boulder Shockbomb, Summon storm spirit

    Flight, Ice Shards, Ice arrow, Snowball

    Ice shield, Ice tower, Comet, Protection Shield, Skyray, Deluge

    What can I change to make it better? Or should I just stick to your spellbook?

    I have tested out your spellbook and I won 3/5 times, I haven't tested mine yet, but I just wanted to know if you think mine is better than yours,

    Thanks,

    Don

  • I used to use a similar spellbook, until I found better one to use, and that better book eventually turned into this video that you see before you.

    You cannot regain health, as you do not have drain or heal.

    You have only one light attack per 5 turns, not enough to kill even the easiest of liches.

    One tower is always a bad idea, especially if the other person is like most people, and carries Pebble Shot.

    There are more reasons, but that is enough.

  • Use mine :)

  • whats BFTP?

  • blast from the past

  • brine has unlimited uses again

  • Thanks XGOD, your the best!

  • Thanks xGod.

    I win 95% of the time with this spellbook.

    But how do I reach the people who teleport to the lower left/righ of the map?

    I'm confused about your BFTP an Tower method.

  • Summon "flight minion" in a safe place (under a tree for example). Next place your minion on the far edge next to the blocking tree. Carefully walk on to your minion, lower the minion slowly. You can do this right to the bottom. Then flight, ice shield and tower on the ice.

    You can now use either a well aimed shock bomb, or more preferably "brine bolt" followed by "drain".

    Note: BFTP technique is simply, aiming for the weak spot in the tree, making the hole then towering inside it.

  • Which arena(s) do you usually use this book on, X G O D?

  • I created this spellbook mainly for use on my favorite level, Grassy Hills... but that doesn't mean it cannot be used on other levels.

    There are other books I could recommend depending on different tactics or spells used by your opponent. However, much relies on your own experience and how you handle different strategies.

    Also, I don't mind admitting there are better books for other levels, again much depends on the game rules and your opponent - use spells that you feel comfortable with.

  • During your sessions, did you actually play grassy hills each time? If so, how did you manage being flashed/shocked in water and still win since I would say that first turn on grassy hills is winner (if both players are good)?

  • The best place to teleport after being flashed is 1/3 of the way down any tree. If you do this the only option you leave your opponent with is to try and trap next to you.

    Then all you have to do is use "blast from the past" to move them aside, or make yourself a hole. Then tower.

    Once in tower, you have regained your defence and are able to carry on fighting.

  • any replacment ideas?

    i almost always win with that book but i want to try new things

  • done : )

  • fly

    frost shard

    den of dark

    drain

    swarm

    kight

    shiningbolt

    pegasus

    bftp

    clocktower

  • i am thinkig about changing book

    gate

    flash

    mud

    pebbles

    shock bomb

    strom minon

  • nice music, i put ff music on my vids too

  • OH AND ONE MORE THING...

    Ive updated my book:

    The latest one is the same as above - only TAKE OUT "pebbles" and "heal sphere"

    REPLACE THEM WITH "protection shield" and "shining bolt"

  • People who say there is NO WAY to get to people who teleport down low on grassy.

    THERE IS A WAY is attack them. In fact THERE ARE TWO.

    You can either "blast from the past" down and then tower inside the hole which gets you down there on your next turn.

    or

    You can summon flight minion in a safe place, and then ride it down the side walls to the bottom, which also gets you down there next turn.

  • They only thing wrong with this book is that there are no aerial spells... its pretty good besides that, but if some1 teles in the left or right side of grassy, then u need to wait to get flight back. Thats the other drawback.

  • What do you do with a lich?

  • as a lich jump on people and drain there health vsing a lich i go into towers trap them and use light spells

  • excuse me what do you do if they start hidden in  a hole you cant get into ?

  • get into a tower u can tele with go near em or summon something near em or put aura on them.

  • I'm definitely gonna try these spells and see what they can do.

    Isn't that the battle theme from Final Fantasy IX by the way? :D

  • listen to a ''Who's that pokemon?'' vid dude xD

  • w8 wat spell book is blast from the past and clocktower in ?

    im guessing cog?

  • yes it is

  • its a great spellbook

    i got 2000+ ratings without book of cog using this spellbook

  • call me dumb but...MY best spells r full under dark, arcane tower, arcane energizer, and tele....bout to make a vid of it soon...

  • goodbook but, takkk out ice shielld n ice tower for waterball + maelstrome

  • Okay, so how do you hit someone in the bottom right or left corner? You say you actually beat levante with this? You dont even have maelstrom...Im not saying its bad, i just want to know what you do in that case? =o

  • hmm snowball works perfect for ice castle

  • to the idiot who says this book is no good against rock...

    the tactic you use is to simply fly up high and put on flight minion's wind shield

    that way they cannot hit you with their rock attacks

  • no aerial spells whatsoever

  • no need for them

  • the spells are overall good in every situation

    its not the best tho

  • i just beat him with full stone. im pretty sure he was using that book.

    it was a good match tho. no hard feelings either way

    gg x g o d

    ~kubsmice

  • minda okay but need a bit ajustments

  • mate... that's a bad spellbook, and don't think u r too good, 3rd prestige is just still noobie...

  • dude a lot of the legit arch mages got arch mage 1-5 prestiege and got to 10 in few months.... ur just a wannabe noob

  • i met u on Arcanists today Batter600

  • and ive fought a draw with trix b4. i was mixed book with only sky ray and protect for light spells. u were lich. it was when heal sphere did 100 damage, but sadly i didnt have to kill u

    but gf saying u beat me.

    u tried to, but it was a draw

  • tht a lie lolz....

  • my cano book is ALMOST the same as this, but instead of sphere, i have pro shield ~dd55

  • neva fought u b4 X god.

  • nah that's a load of bs, but if you get to 10th prestige you get to look like a clown

  • lol a trapper spellbook...easily countered...

    ~ kubsmice

  • omg kubsmice! i fought you but i had to go yesterday! i'm dumb dude 55, i'm the one who said gl with champion of magic

  • oh kool man lol. add meh ingame

  • i fought you on my other account trix, and beat you with 248 hp left...

    I got out of the tower I was in to finish you off with shock shield...

    remember now?

  • well those are useful spells but its not really a full book/deck.

  • says you

  • Great spellbook, exactly what I used a while ago, however, sancutary OWNS shock shield now :)

  • ... not if you know how to use the spellbook properly

  • No, not at all.

  • well, i would anyways replace like storm shield with thunderbolt

  • HELL NO

  • lol nahh hes right, thats a terrible layout

  • and you know more than me?

    pfft

  • mabye, but i still think u need a non-limited, non-recharging close combat spell like thunderbolt or fireball or sumthin like that.

  • oh and flash noob :D

  • yeah, but what would you know eh?

  • lol blast from the past noob..plus sphere of hp and drain.. retarded idea mate

  • im guessing your one of these 1000 rate noobs, who discovers lich jar, ice bomb and instantly thinks hes the ruler of arcanists?

    lmfao

  • no, those..actually suck. :D

  • why pebble shot? i would use thunder shock or sumthing llike that instead =p

  • pebble shot is 1 of the best spells for destroying and getting people out of castles/towers :p
