The game offers players the opportunity to make and experiment with their own builds in the game. There are numerous paths wizards can take in this regard, and here is one that lets players get a taste of the evil side.

For this, you will need to only spend 12 talents. Firstly navigate to the Dark Arts section. You will have to spend 8 points here. If you want to take the Dark Lord’s path this is an obvious choice. Unlock the Stunning Curse from this. This will allow cursed enemies to take more damage.

Use talents accordingly as seen in the aforementioned image in the Dark Arts talent tree. Then the next step is to go to the Core tree where you will be spending 3 core talents.  Here unlock the Protego Mastery. This ability helps in releasing a powerful damage blast that breaks the shields of the enemy. Additionally, ensure you have taken Protego Expertise as well. Finally, spend one talent point for the Transformation mastery.

You will need the legendary gear set for getting optimal power. That is, the legendary gear will allow wizards to equip a level 3 trait compared to the other sets.

Now moving on to the traits, go for the tier three unforgivable traits. Yes, most people tend to favor the Concentration tier 3 trait, but for being a pure dark lord you need to equip the unforgivable traits. Equip this trait for every gear you are using. This would largely benefit the unforgivable spells like Avada Kedavra.
