Randolf is too hard!

I agree, he's a nightmare. My sorcerer (who was legendary when Wysteria was released) and necromancer had no issues with him, but my poor Life wiz had to try twice to complete the instance. I guess what I don't understand is that he steals any shields we put up, and then we're penalized for not having them. He even stole my spirit armour, and I was steamed.

If you want advice on how to beat him, let me know what school you are and we'll go from there.

I can help if you want, he shouldn't be too hard. Do you have centaur yet? If so, Shield (Legend shield works well) then trap, Lifeblade, and cast your most powerful spell, centaur if you can. This worked for me, but I was too high a level because I had so much trouble with Chester Droors. Hope this helps! Good luck!

If you want help, ask.

At first I didn't understand it all my blades and Shields where like - poof and the dial for who's turn it was was like going back in forth so fast I was like um isn't it my turn? Then I saw randolf so some spell thing then it would twist around and sure enough it was his turn. Being a storm is good for beating him ~ strong blades good shields strong attacks and so on I just put his candle out with a simple kraken spell with one storm blade and storm trap kinda thing on him then bam - 900 damage clean he was out like a light so if your heading in at a lower level such as 26-27-28 -lower for me lvl 31- just simply grab some blades traps and strong attacks and your set ^_^ ~ scarlet stormblossem lvl 31 Hyde park

Try being a 26 Myth wizard against him!!! That's hard. However, after about 7 attempts I was able to defeat him (changing strategy a little bit each defeat).
I was lvl 26 also and killed him in one spell it was hilarious, just buy storm traps and stormblades, or just use myth prisms, and your sure to win.

You can't use shields. One of his cheats is to shatter shields.

Ok guys. Yes, Randolf Spellshine cheats and isn't very easy. But you don't need to spend money for dumb treasure cards. I figured out a good plan for every school. Here are my plans.

All schools: Put a shield on before attacking. Remember, if you can beat the pagoda's ninja pig, Randolf is a little easier to beat because they both use the same tricks.

: Ok. I think if you are myth, Randolf is a joke. By now, you should have myth prism spell. Cast it on him and use traps, blades, etc. then attack with a strong myth spell. Then, it will turn into storm.

: Randolf is easy for storm, but bring accuracy spells like keen eyes, etc.

: You might know ice armor spell by now. Use it and use tower as well and attack with ice wyvern and if you have some good blades and traps, he is gone.

: Fire is ok because it has decent attack spells. Put on shields and then use fire elf on him. Then when you can, use something like phoniex and helephant.

: My plan for life, shield, trap, blade, attack, heal. Repeat this until he is gone or you lose. The spell seraph is good for this.

: Death does good. Many will belive pirate works good. Use this once you have traps and blades.

: As for balance, use traps and blades and then use something like sandstorm or locust swarm.

Guys I have a tip. Just buy treasure card strangles (Death Dispels), and with 2 or 3 strangles you can attack 2 (If you can do 500 damage each hit) or 3 (Advised for life wizards but I would blade up for 1 or 2 hits) times and kill him.

to beat him even if you level twenty (i beat him at that level lol) first, you will need the stormzilla treasure card. then some storm accuracy boosting clothes (and spells if you can find them) then go beat him. use your accuracy spells first, then cast the card at the terrible pig dude . if it fizzles flee, then get better accuracy clothes and spells and go try again. the storm lord spell is ok too, but i dont recomend it cuz it to high in pips
The only problem with that is if you are not in the storm school you will not be able to wear storm clothing. I agree he is very hard to beat. My card deck just plain sucks and I don't know how everyone else has such great deck of cards. I have great cards just can't use them when I need them. I either don't have enough pips or fizzle out.

I agree with what the others said; You should just defeat him in one hit. I recommend the storm card Insane Bolt, which does 1100+ damage to the target you're trying to defeat on. It also just costs 2 pips; If you have any equipment that gets you an extra pip at the start of the battle, all you need to do is to draw the card, use it on Randolf, and you're done with the battle in just one round. The card costs 2000 gold in the bazaar though, so make sure you have the required gold to buy it.
Thank you so much for the information. I got the card and it took awhile till I was able to draw the card but it worked. For anyone who wants to defeat Randolf easy just listen to Sheildacube.

Funny you say this... On my fire wizard (first one) it took me FOREVER to defeat him, but on my life wizard (second one) I killed him the 1st time xD, he is too easy in my opinion as he is introducing you to the cheating bosses later in the game

Really? I've never lost to him...
Just blade up & put traps on him. Use a spell that's powerful enough, so considering your ice I'd strongly suggest the Ice Wyvern. (or something like that, never played an ice wizard in all honesty).

He's super easy.

I beat him as a level 26 fire. I used Wyldfire, a fire blade, and immolate. I then quickly took him down with link and my wand attacks. And of course, I used pixie a few times to heal. So basically, hit him hard, heal when you know you need it, and after the big attack use low-pip spells to defeat him. If it still does t work, try bringing a friend.

You guys are not seeing whats in front of you. You see, the people you are facing are also students, so you have to remember that they can heal, just like you! But the only thing that Randolf will cheat at is either one of these.
-skipping your turn, to break your shield, or waste a "-25%"
-Skipping your turn to heal himself
-and using a trap, and then using a strong spell in one turn.
But what I meant was, the only way you can defeat him is to use shields, which is what he'll say about every time he uses a spell. His most usage spell is the Vampire, so now you know to use a death shield. I hope this advice helped! Remember, you can get a death shield from either school, or school.

liar. it is impossible to beat him at level twenty, because you do not get access to wysteria until 25. if you ported to a friend, it does not count.

i fought him with 2 different wizards, with my fire wizard i had trouble. but with my myth wizard, it was very easy! (makes no sense)

I was able to defeat him easily with stormzilla. (my myth's secondary school is storm) just shield yourself heavily and when you have gained enough pips, hit him.

His cheat is if you don't have any shields, he will vamp you. If you do have shields, he will remove them every two rounds. (then depending on if he goes before you get shields, he still vamps you. so pray you get to go first)

if you don't have stormzilla or any spells that can get him in one hit, go to the bazaar. they have plenty of cool spells no one else wants.

Also, make sure you have healing, it helps.
