[b]Are you tired of being killed by 3 scrubs wearing full havels and spamming r1 with a dark sword? Look no further than this ranged masterpiece! Watch in amazement as you oneshot <1200 health hosts, and annihilate phantoms with a wide variety of unpredictable spells![/b]

11 strength
11 dexterity
60 intelligence
7 faith
12 luck[/spoiler]
The gear:
[spoiler]armor: crown of dusk + shadow set
Rings: young dragoncrest, bellowing dragoncrest, magic clutch, obscuring/sages(depends on situation)

[spoiler]note: if you land a soul stream, whatever you hit is pretty much done for. The only way to do more damage as a Mage is to make a Hypermode build.[/spoiler]
Edit: this build is now useless. From nerfed the scholars candlestick, so it deals less damage now. God forbid sorcerers are viable...
