Shadow Mage

For the alternate version, see Mage.
Shadow Mage is one of the Shadow Base Classes. They are functionally identical to base classes, but can use an extra Artifact. In addition, they are not locked to your base class (IE you can have Rogue base but own Shadow Warrior). It is obtained by redeeming 5 HeroPoints, available as a bonus from some Heromart merchandise.
Ancient Shadow Mage is a cosmetic variant of Shadow Mage, except it can be swapped for other Ancient Shadow bases at the Black Market Moglin. It is obtained by redeeming the code from the Shadowscythe T-Shirt on Heromart. The shirt is out of stock, meaning this class is rare.
