Maiden/Guide

The Maiden can not only heal teammates, but deal a pretty decent amount of damage and slight tanking.
The Maiden is available around level 15 for males at i believe 30k silver, and free for females after completion of starter quests early on around level 2 or 3.

### Main Stats

* **1) Will:** The Maiden uses will as the primary talent. Her talents go based off will and intellect, and her aura talents are based off will. Will decreases damage taken from magical damage.
* **2) Intellect:** Intellect increases the healing and damage powers of the Maiden's main skill: power balance.
* **3) Health:** Not only does the Maiden heal, and damage, but she can tank a little bit, and every bit of healthy to go along with damage reduction helps make her even more valuable in team fights.
* **4) Energy:** Energy is going to be a problem early when having to heal alot, so getting a few hundred extra energy in your talent build will do nothing but help in sustained fights.

### What to do

You must remember always that Maiden is support. Her main theme is mini game. Yes, she can stay on the line, and she also can jungle, but she is support in the main role, and she must assist to carries and give them all farm.

If you choose either yo go top or bottom. Either pick the squishiest of your allies to help or go with the tank to give him even more survivability when laning early on.

If you are with ranged, you want to stay in front of them, acting as a support tank. If you are with melee either fight along side them last hitting or if you have enough mana you can try and AoE last hit with Power Balance

As you fight against enemy players you want to try and save bewitch for when a player with low healthy is trying to run away, so you can stun him and watch him die.

As you level up, and gain your auras you want to try and stick as close to teammates as possible during fights, but position yourself for the situation. If you have Rainbow Flight ready, don't be afraid to get right in the action and cause the enemy to waste a few seconds attacking you while invulnerable, or sit in the mid to back of your group and keep the healed, using Bewitch when possible to stop fleeing enemies, or to keep them from chasing down your low health allies.

You CAN jungle in the teens/twenties if you are behind and need a quick catch up or a few hundred prime quick, but not recommended

Late in the game, when everyone is in the 20's you are pretty much going to be the pest on your team. Your going to run around in circles during team fights, being invulnerable, healing, causing damage, and stealing energy for your team while supplying some extra auras for increased nukation and survival. You can also tank the brunt of tower damage due to will increasing your stamina and having the healing power to keep yourself from dying.

Maiden is generally not "great" in outpost, but with mass intellect and will talents, she can provide enough healing and damage to hold her own and keep your team pushing.
