Tips

 * This set has the same defense as Spectre armor with the mask option, increases magic damage by a larger percentage, and has almost double the increase in magic critical hit percentage. It does not share the Spectre set's set bonuses; however, the extra slots and bonuses to the Flameburst sentry summons allow it to place 4 powerful sentries at once. This is especially useful in arenas for boss fights, with the set bonus allowing the Flameburst sentries to attack from far away.
 * Also, the increase in minion damage makes both the Xeno Staff and Stardust Dragon Staff much more powerful. This can be capitalized on by using the Papyrus Scarab and Necromantic Scroll or Pygmy Necklace and Bewitching Table or Summoning Potion to more than quadruple the damage.
 * The Dark Artist set's emphasis on sentries and minions make it better suited to a cautious play style. Players that have difficulty attacking while kiting bosses with Spectre armor may find this easier.
 * The Dark Artist's Leggings give a 25% magical critical hit boost, making them excellent for hybrid sets.
 * The Dark Artist's Hat represents a direct upgrade to the Forbidden Mask for the head slot in hybrid sets, affording 1 more defense and two additional sentry slots.
