Apprentices are members of Sentinels of Magic. They are the lowest rank members and work under the surveillance of Mentors. The Apprentices are Homo Magi and they appear in the Chinatown district of city of Metropolis. Armed with wands, they are of magic origin with the power set in Sorcery.
Involvement[]
The Apprentices are stationed near the Shen Li Po Gardens during the Fateful Demise mission. Exobyte magic villains are tasked by Circe to take them out before they can cast protective wards, while Cultist Sever hires villains to steal spellbooks from them in School for Scandal side mission.
Strategy[]
Once the villain player is in range of an Apprentice, they start making range attacks. They make two types of range attacks alternating between them. They either shoot quick spells dealing higher damage (usually taking 5 hp) once and lower damage (usually 2 hp) several times, or they cast a magical energy forming a line between them and the player dealing medium damage (usually 3 hp) multiple times for several seconds. They do not approach the player themselves, but if the player comes in melee range, they start making melee spell attacks which consists of four-five hits of inconsistent damage (2-5 hp). Either way the amount of total damage is approximately same, although statistically they deal less damage in melee combat.
Apprentice attacking with magical energy
Some of the Apprentices stand alone (either on the outskirts of the mission zone, or on the balconies of three buildings), while others are in groups usually with Mentors around. The ones alone are easiest to take out.
