Prodigy

## Description

*While most of the mages feel compelled to choose a specific path in their pursuit of knowledge and power, occasionally one doesn't show interest in affairs of his brethren. His dire hunger for knowledge and magical craft leas him to the rarely chosen path of the Prodigy. Few stay sane and fewer stay faithful, but those few bring about new ways of understanding the foundation of the world. His raw genius and skill more than make up for the Prodigy's lack of allies and aid.*

## Description

Increases mana profits with time spent as this class and with experience gained. Has access to more powerful spells and upgrades directly affecting profits. Also, his upgrades decrease basic costs of sources.

Unique Source: Ley Apex, replaces Nexus

## Basic Design

Prodigy profits in a few interesting ways. Firstly, he has upgrades that reduce the cost of Sources, and secondly, he has upgrades that increase his evocation efficiency, paired with  to push it even further. His character ability is also a buffed version of Apprentice's, scaling with time spent.

Prodigy also includes new spells that scale based on his level:  grants more profits, and at much higher levels,  charges more quickly. To help raise his level, Prodigy has a new persistent spell: . The more times this spell is cast, the more it multiplies Prodigy's experience. It also increases profits based on casts this run, making it relevant to always be casting more .

Prodigy also always wants to be building more sources, making pets like Homunculus and Simulacrum potent boosts to his profits. With  and  scaling off the number of sources directly, and sources providing XP that improve the aforementioned abilities that scale off level, this makes a large difference. Prodigy can also increase the profit of his sources with , , and , making these good candidates to burst with.

At extremely high levels, Prodigy gains a new spell: . This spell charges faster based on level, making stacks of  even more important than before.  increases the power of all incantation spells for that exile, even when it's not currently casting, or even on the bar. This is a massive buff, since all of Prodigy's new spells, excluding , are incantations.
