Magicians are the spell casters which use their magic power to send destruction upon their enemies. Their attacks are able to be casted at range on a monster or even if it is standing right next to them.
   Magicians are hands down the strongest characters during earlier level. However, they tend to weaken a little during later levels but they remain versatile with teleport and again with long and short ranged attacks.
   As a Magician, you are able to become rich very fast because Magicians have the ability to destroy large groups of enemies very fast and efficiently.
Magicians use MP to cast their spells and defensive shields. They receive skills such as MP Recovery and MP eater, which help them with the re-generation of their MP. It should be said that Magicians are arguably the richest class in the game, due to monster drops and in no small part to their expeditious MP recovery though wealth does differ from play to player. With the ability to heal while dealing damage simultaneously to undead monsters, all Mages and Clerics tend to be the richest of all. Like all classes, however, Magicians still have to spend lots of money on MP potions.
   It should be noted that because Magicians are believed to be rich, other players tend to raise prices on higher-leveled Magician equipment. Magicians are also one of the most common classes, which create a much larger demand for equipments than other classes, thus increasing the prices even more.
   In addition, Magicians have the highest MP of all the classes. Magicians also have the highest magic defense in the game. This is because of the primary attribute which is intelligence. Each intelligence point increases both magic and magic defense by 1. Also they have element-based attacks in second job, which makes them able to have attack bonuses (like a 100% critical on monsters weak to their element), that does 150% damage, but cuts their damage by half, i.e. 50%, against monsters with the same element as them. The good thing of a mage is that their attacks in third job are Area of Effect like ice Mage's ice strike or fire mage's explosion, making them easier to level up.
   Low HP and low weapon defense are the Magician's main weakness. While a Warrior can easily have 2500 HP by level 40, a Magician barely has 550 HP at that time. Their skill "Magic Guard" covers this weakness by diverting up to 80% of taken damage to MP instead of HP. Take for granted that MP potions cost two times more than HP potions, but mages recover MP quickly. This causes a problem for MP as the Magician reaches levels 30-40. During this time their HP is high enough to sustain attacks but Magic Guard constantly "drains" MP, making many mages turn to SP Reset or abandoning the skill completely. It all comes down to proper skill management and usage. It is the fact that Magician armor has the lowest weapon defense means that a melee attack will drain more of their HP and MP than first thought.
