from the nfo

You don't need to have any of the previous updates installed, as this update is featuring all previous updated content

found this:

How to play singleplayer / multiplayer online!

I got the multiplayer working with the SKIDROW version without any problems and without using hamachi/tunngle.

1) Installed the SKIDROW version. DONT install the cracked content

2) Immediately installed SKIDROW's update 2, DONT install the crack files for the update either.

3) Made a steam_appid.txt file with the demo's app id (73050) and placed it in the root of the Magicka install folder.

4) Lauched the game with legit steam running in the background

(Note that it must say that you're playing the Magicka demo and anyone else that tries to join the game)

5) Create a game and invite your friend or let your friend send you an invite.

6) Play the game.

When you are surrounded obviously and area spell, Q and R brings some spikes from the ground, nasty, you have to press quickly as they are opposite. And left shift of course.

Anyone knows the right combination to summon an Ent?

I was pretty sure it was Life+Arcane but they cancel each other every time I try to use it, the only way it works is when I hit Life and Arcane like crazy till the ent is summoned Laughing

spam arcane+frost aoe around yourself (weapon+cast) and run around. stupidly imba.
sometimes i like to mix it up by doing arcane+water -> arcane+lightning, and of course some opponents (armored trolls) require arcane+lightning+fire (fire to take care of their regen, lightning for bonus damage against armor)

use the fire ray (arcane+fire+regular cast) to take the bombermen out at range, they also deal shitloads of aoe damage when they die this way, taking other goblins with them.

self shield, rain, then lightning really does a number on the bomber guys and other small groups. for smaller groups I'm a fan of either freeze mines or the frost spray to freeze them and then a boulder to the chest

I find the easiest way to deal with the bombers are fireballs with 4x fire. Quick to cast and instantly kills all of them in a large radius.

Guys bombers are most easily dealt with a the A S F beam. Lighting+Fire+Arcane makes them go boom instantly, for extra firepower you can add steam with Q+F. So Q+F+A+S+F, the uber beam Razz.
