Magician Life Information
Magician Details
| Life Information | |

 Magician
|
Type: Combat |
| Weapon: Staff | |
| Master: Oz | |
| Imagine all your problems, solved by the power of magic! As long as you have your staff, the only limit is your imagination. | |
Unleash a Plethora of Magical Spells
The Magician is the most versatile Combat Life thanks to its access to a multitude of different spells. However, it is the squishiest one as well, meaning you'll need to properly utilize your dodges and spell casts to stay alive.
Magician Skill Tree
Skill Tree Overview
 ▶ Click Here to See the Full Image |
| Legend |
|---|
|
♥ = Prioritize Getting these Skills when available ★= Other Skills you can unlock, but no need to rush unlocking ! = "???" (Final Skill you'll unlock) Chevron = Stat Buffs (Used to unlock more panels) |
Skill Upgrade Priority
| Switch Magic Spells > Special Skills > Thaumaturgy |
You're Mostly Stuck With Your Three Spells Until the End
The Attack, Defense, and Healing spells are your only forms of attack until the end. Further Skill Panels will only improve the base skills which ends in AoE Spells.
Meditation is Good for SP Management but Quickly Wears Off
Mediation and Thaumaturgy can reduce the SP requirements for your Charged Skills, but leaves you an open target while casting. Make sure to time it well as you may end up losing more HP instead.
Your Special Skill can Stun Enemies
Unlike other classes, your only mode of stunning enemies is with your Special Skills. Time your casts well and you can open up a window for yourself for some potions or other buffs.
Stat Upgrade Priority
| Charge Up Time > SP Skills = Magic Attack > HP and Defense |
Get Charge-up time Panels As Soon as You Can!
While charging your spells, you will be vulnerable to attacks! Grab the Charge-up panels when they become available to prevent getting mobbed while charging up spells.
SP Management is Key
Make sure you invest in the SP Panels at the bottom as the Magician is pretty SP hungry. Being in the back thanks to your range means you can sacrifice a few HP and Denfense panels to focus on offense.
Magician Combat Strategy
| Magician Combat Strategy |
|---|
|
|
Stay Safe and Blast from a Distance
Magicians are the ultimate glass cannons and you deal big damage from a safe distance using Attack, Defense, and Healing spells. Since these are your only forms of offense until the very end, you’ll be relying heavily on your basic spell rotations.
Make sure to stay mobile, weaving in dodges while you charge up spells to avoid getting shredded.
Master Your Charge-Ups
Your strongest attacks come from Charged Skills. Problem is, you’re totally vulnerable while charging.
Prioritize unlocking Charge-Up Time reduction panels early in your Skill Tree so you can get those casts off without eating a faceful of damage.
Use Special Skills to Stun
Unlike other classes, Magicians rely on their Special Skills to stun enemies, which are super handy for interrupting dangerous foes or buying yourself a breather to chug a potion.
Time these carefully in tougher fights to create openings for yourself and your team.
Keep an Eye on Your SP
Magicians are SP abusers so investing in SP Skills and Meditation panels is crucial to keeping your spells flowing, especially in drawn-out battles.
While Meditation reduces SP consumption, it leaves you wide open, so only pop it when you’re sure it’s safe.
Swap Modes Depending on the Situation
| All Modes | |
|---|---|
| Attack Mode | Max damage output |
| Defense Mode | Tankier stats and reduced incoming damage |
| Recovery Mode | Heal yourself and your party |
As soon as you unlock Switch Magic Spells, you’ll gain access to Attack, Defense, and Recovery Modes.
Rotate between these based on the battle situation.Stay in Attack Mode for mobs, switch to Defense when bosses start throwing AoEs, or hop into Recovery to patch yourself up.
