However, don’t get too excited yet, because obtaining Excalibur is no walk in the park. Luckily, this step-by-step guide will take you through everything you need to know.
What is Excalibur in Mage Arena?
In the Mage Arena, Excalibur is the most famous melee weapon, a legendary item that acts as a game-changer. Excalibur is not like most weapons or spells because it has the ability to one-shot kill anything on contact. Thus, this instantly changes the tide of the match if it is successfully able to take out an enemy. Furthermore, Excalibur has a notable immediate and striking visual and sound effect on kill.
When you have Excalibur, you look like a terror raid boss for a player. Therefore, you’ll be the focus of the enemy teams either out of panic, their desire to turtle, or a focus on beating the sword bearing down. Moreover, it remains when you die. Hence, if you want to end the game quickly, that means you have to hold on to Excalibur with a supportive spell like Freeze or Blink.
Components Needed to Craft Excalibur
To craft Excalibur in Mage Arena, you need two unique components: the Hilt of Excalibur and the Shattered Blade. Both parts are located within the dangerous Mausoleum area of the Graveyard biome. These components are hidden, lodged in rocks inside the inner rooms of the Mausoleum, and emit a distinct golden glow. This makes them easier to spot despite the eerie environment.
Be ready for some serious combat because this area is protected by enemies called Liches. Specifically, if they catch you unprepared, well, the attacks they deliver can wipe you out in no time. Make sure you equip a torch so you can see better. Additionally, walking through the dangerous paths with friendly summons like a Golem can only further improve your odds of recovering these parts safely.
Step-by-Step Process to Get Excalibur
In order to get Excalibur from Mage Arena, you’ll want to head into the dangerous Mausoleum biome. You can easily identify the Mausoleum biome on the map by the grey square icon in the center of the green hexagon.
Your main task is to find and recover two parts: the Hilt of Excalibur and the Shattered Blade of Excalibur. Both items are going to be random in the rocks that you will need to extract them from. Therefore, you will need to hold down the interact key (E) for around 10 seconds. Moreover, during this time, you will be vulnerable to attacks, so you will need to be cautious and fast. However, lighting beacons in the area and being swift on your feet increase your chances of surviving this difficult task.
Now that you’ve got BOTH the Hilt and the Shattered Blade, head back to your base. Then, combine them either on a crafting bench or altar to create the Excalibur sword.
How to Use Excalibur Effectively
To use Excalibur well in Mage Arena, you need to understand the unique strengths and limitations of the weapon. Excalibur can take down any enemy in one hit, making it the most overpowered melee weapon in the game. Therefore, to maximize the effectiveness of Excalibur, you have to engage enemies in melee range. Then, you must strike decisively before they can react to your presence.
One of the best strategies is to use Excalibur with the Freeze spell. Freeze your target in place and rush them down before they can escape and hit you back. Since Excalibur will permanently prevent you from reviving enemy players during the match, getting that first hit basically ensures victory in duels.
Also, teamplay and spell synergy really make Excalibur more effective. For you to use Excalibur cooperatively, your teammates need to cover you while you are closing in with a distraction. Alternatively, you can cast offensive spells such as Thunderbolt.
Final Thoughts
Now that you understand how to retrieve and make Excalibur, we can put your knowledge to the test. The legendary sword not only makes you stronger. But it also changes your approach and tactics in every fight you have in Mage Arena. Believe it or not, you won’t understand how you played before you had it.
