What is Acid Magic in Arcane Odyssey?

Acid Magic is one of the base magics you’ll get to choose to play when first starting the game. When used in battle, it will apply the acid-exclusive Corroding status effect. This has the same effect as Melting. Corroding inflicts 5% of the attack’s damage for 10 seconds (for a total of 50% attack damage), as well as inflicting a pulsing green or purple acid overlay on the target.

Acid Magic is overall quite strong, capable of dealing high damage, and has decent magic speed, which makes hitting targets a bit easier.

What makes Acid Magic even better is its synergy with most other magic types due to the mechanics of Corroding. The Acid Puddles can also provide passive AoE damage.

It also blends seamlessly with other magics, delivering a significant amount of damage with the Corroding status effect that causes damage over time. Moreover, it leaves behind acid puddles for effective area control and inflicts additional damage to those who tread on them. Acid Magic’s optimal synergies include Ash, Fire, and Magma, and it pairs well with Glass, Plasma, Poison, and Explosion. However, using it with Sand or Water is counterproductive.

Is Acid Magic a good choice in Arcane Odyssey?

We currently rate Acid Magic as A Tier. It’s very similar to Magma, and you can use it with Attack Size to boost the size of the puddles, but it’s perhaps a little weaker on the damage. However, it’s a little tricky to use correctly.

Acid Magic Best Builds

Here’s a list of the best Acid Magic build combos to use right now. We’ll be updating this list as more are found.

Magma + Acid

Magma applies Melting, which buffs Acid damage by 25%, and Acid applies the Corroding effect, which then buffs Magma by 25% as well.

Either one can be picked as primary, but Magma is recommended due to its high base damage.

Fire + Acid

Fire applies the burning effect, which increases Acid damage by 25%, and Acid applies the corroding effect, which also buffs fire damage by 25%.

Either one can be picked as primary.

Corroding

Arcane Odyssey Acid Magic Wiki Guide

Corroding
Corrodes the target, dealing up to 50% of damage dealt dividing the damage of the initial hit by 5%, over a course of over 10 seconds. Leaves Acid puddles that deal damage upon hitting a surface, if it hits a vertical surface the puddle will be on the closest horizontal surface.

Corroding is cleared by Water Magic, Ice Magic, and Snow Magic, and increases the damage dealt by most other magics, making it a good option for synergizing:

  • Corroding increases the damage of Magma spells by 25%, which clears the effect
  • Corroding increases the damage of Fire spells by 25%
  • Corroding increases the damage of Metal, Plasma, and Glass spells by 20%
  • Corroding increases the damage of Wood spells by 15%
  • Corroding increases the damage of Earth, Lightning, Sand, Crystal, Explosion, and Ash spells by 10%
  • Corroding increases the damage of Acid spells by 5%
  • Corroding doesn’t change the damage of Ice spells, though they clear the effect
  • Corroding increases the damage of Water and Snow spells by 10%, which clears the effect
