Terraria Magic Class Guide — weapons, armor & loadouts

The Magic class

The Magic class casts spells, staves and magic guns powered by mana. It offers some of the game's best area-of-effect and utility options, but needs mana potions or regeneration gear to keep firing.

What defines it

• Strong area-of-effect and crowd control.
• Limited by a mana pool — plan for Mana Potions or mana-regen accessories.
• Scales with magic-damage gear and the Mana Flower for hands-free casting.

• Best magic loadout — pre-hardmode
