- Invest early in
Sacred Fire, so you can quickly become a walking dynamite stick lolll. Sacred Flame III deals 48 fire damage to everyone standing near in front of you, so it's super fun against swarms of flammable enemies dumb enough to charge at you! (Or too slow to get out of your way hihihi)
-
Arbenos's Might is the next Inquisitor spell to get. It essentially sets
you on fire. Useful as a flashlight at night, but also to keep your enemies warm...
- Next step is a huge money-sink, but it's the most fun part of the Inquisitor. Once you get to
INT 4, go to the Enclave tower near Freetown, and spend all your gold on Scrolls of
Fire Elemental Summoning!!! Now you have a walking pyre to burn the heretics
- At level 7, do the Wizard Guild's Enclaves quests to get into Icemist. Learn the Advanced Skill
Summoner to turn your Fire Elementals into terrifying angels of doom! (At this point, your elemental will actually become
more powerful than you loll)
The Inquisitor build peaks at level 10, with its level 13 Fire Elementals. With those 3 skills maxed out, at level 10, you still have 3 skill points left for your Heal spell. You can use it to heal your Fire Elemental too.
The best traits to increase are PER and INT. The Inquisitor fights like a Mage, so all you need is mana!
The best equipment for the Inquisitor is basically everything that gives you mana, like the +20 mana ring from the Ilmara Enclave quest. You'll want as much mana as possible as fuel for your fire magic. The perfect hand weapon is the Mystic Bone Mace, which gives you another extra 20 mana. (It's easily found in the chests of Kurg's Cave in Emerald Valley, provided you run really really fast and are willing to reload the dungeon's map a couple of times to find it loll. It's a bit cheaty, but it's a reasonable weapon - good, but not too powerful - and the extra mana makes the build much more fun.)
Note:
Later in the game, instead of spending tons of expensive scrolls of Teleport to move around, learn the Advanced Skill Gate in Icemist, and spend your gold on tons of expensive scrolls of Fire Elemental Summoning loll. The more the better! And eventually, you might want to also get Scrolls of Ice Elemental Summoning from Icemist, not to use against fire-resistant creatures, but to use as a shield against cold-dealing enemies. Elementals are essentially invincible against their own element!
