==Starting Weapons==
Mage has a selection from lower tier [[Elemental]] weapons and two guns. Wand and Torch inflict powerful [[burn]] on hit, while Taser and lightning shiv can create multiple projectiles that scale with elemental damage.  

It is worth noting that any weapon that only scales with either Melee Damage or Ranged Damage can't be increased past their base damage. This includes SMG, and Double Barrel Shotgun. However the fast attack speed of the SMG and the piercing/multiple projectiles of the Double Barrel Shotgun can be used to spread burn with [[Scared Sausage]]. The projectiles of the Taser and the melee attack part of the lightning shiv can also spread fire in this way. (The projectiles created by the lightning shiv can inflict burn. This used to not be the case, but was changed in patch 1.0.1.3.).

==Starting Items==
Mage starts with 2 items that make them more effective with the {{StatIcon|name=Elemental Damage}} [[Elemental Damage]].

|{{Item Data|Scared Sausage|stats}}
|Lets Mage use any weapon to inflict {{StatIcon|name=Elemental Damage}} burn. 
Increases the [[burn]] damage of weapons that already inflict burn by +1 (eg. {{MiniIconbox|Wand}} and {{MiniIconbox|Torch}}) <br>
But it is cheaper to buy more elemental damage if using those weapons. <br>
The 2nd, 3rd, 4th Scared Sausage also increases the damage done by the burn it inflicts by +1, but this isn't shown in the tooltip.

|{{Item Data|Snake|stats}}
|Snakes help spread your flames to more targets. You spread the fire to +1 additional enemy for each snake you have.
