'''Magi and Arch Magi''' are level 4 creatures of [[Tower]]. They can be recruited from the [[tower creature dwellings|Mage Tower]]. (''Note, that the correct spelling is 'one mage' but 'many magi'.'')


''"Apprentice magi, under the mentorship of [[Wizard]]s, serve as Tower troops before they become full masters of their craft. Both mage and arch mage units suffer no [[melee penalty|damage penalty for attacking adjacent enemies]] and reduce the casting cost of allied hero [[spell]]s by two. Arch mage attacks [[Obstacle penalty|penetrate cover]] and deal full damage to enemies behind siege walls."{{-}}<sup>[[Restoration of Erathia Manual Page 114|RoE manual]]''</sup>

Magi's attacks visually look like bolts of energy, while arch magi's attacks are concentrated beams. They both use their staff to strike enemies in [[melee]] combat.

Although the documentation says that only arch magi ignore the [[obstacle penalty]], but at least in some versions this is also true for magi.

===== Heroes with a specialty =====
 
*{{H|Theodorus|Wizard}} has magi as a [[Specialty#Creature_specialties|specialty]], which increases the attack and defense skills of any magi or arch magi for each level attained after 4th level and gives them a [[speed]] bonus of 1.
 
== General Tactics and Info ==
Magi and Archamgi are the second shooter of the [[Tower]] faction, replacing [[Gremlin and Master Gremlin|gremlins]] when they become available. It is not essential to upgrade magi early in the game. However, the upgraded Mage Tower only cost 5 {{W}} and 2000 {{G}}. Considering that it gives five more hit points, speed seven and no obstacle penalty, it is more than affordable. The main downside of the magi is, that [[Mage Tower]] has very steep cost, together with their low health.
