| {{:nations:la:arcoscephale:mystic.png?20&nolink |}}**??Mystic?? (135g):** Your default battle-mage, giving you powerful communions with S,F,E and W. Starts with {{path>S1,100%FWES,50%FWE}}, is guaranteed a FWES random, and has an independent 50% chance of a FWE random. Also a solid researcher, with 12RP. Having a research core full of these is great for immediate combat power. | {{:nations:la:arcoscephale:mystic.png?20&nolink |}}**??Mystic??

| Figuring out good communion strategies with these is 80% of the game with Arco. As a short list of suggestions, ??Iron Warriors?? + ??Body Ethereal?? + ??Weapons of Sharpness?? to buff your troops, Summon Elemental spam for super units, or ??Gifts From Heaven??/??Soul Slay?? to stop elites. Remember you can always raid with them when you have Summon Elemental, though you may have better options. | Figuring out good communion strategies with these is 80% of the game with Arco.

| {{:nations:la:arcoscephale:orphic_mystic.png?18&nolink |}}**??Orphic Mystic?? (100g):** Your most gold efficient research mage at 11RP, and one of your best raiding options. Orphics are spell-singers, so any spells they cast are half-fatigue (though take longer to cast). They start with {{path>N1D1,50%FWE,50%SDN}}, and have a 50% chance of a FWE random, and a 50% chance of a SDN random. | {{:nations:la:arcoscephale:orphic_mystic.png?18&nolink |}}**??Orphic Mystic??

| {{:nations:la:arcoscephale:panageis.png?13&nolink |}}**??Panageis?? (200g):** We are mainly getting these {{path>N1H2,100%ND}} for the Carcass Collector ability to convert {{gems>3N}} gems a turn into {{gems>3D}} gems. As a side benefit, they have Healer 2, which lets us use Mind Hunt freely. They let you convert {{gems>N}} gems into {{gems>D}} gems for an opportunity cost of about 3-4 RP per gem, which is a reasonable price. | {{:nations:la:arcoscephale:panageis.png?13&nolink |}}**??Panageis??

| {{:nations:la:arcoscephale:sibyl.png?19&nolink |}}**??Sibyl?? (230g):** These {{path>S2N1H2,100%WSND,10%WSND}} mages are a way to reliably get Nature into our communions, and get {{path>S3}} mages for Mind Hunting. {{path>W}} random Sibyls can also cast ??Foul Vapors?? in a communion, giving you another way to use that strategy. The strategy in this guide doesn’t use them that much, but if you like Mind Hunts, they are key. | {{:nations:la:arcoscephale:sibyl.png?19&nolink |}}**??Sibyl??
