While my hours are numerous, it feels as though I’m not even halfway through this saga.
However, let us start at the beginning of this tale with theMage.

Heal the world
The flip side is that you’re now the one responsible for keeping everyone else alive!
At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter, as you could swap to anotherVocationquickly enough.
It’s a flawless supportVocationthat players gain access to from the start.

Heal the world
TheMagecan be played in different positions depending on party makeup from one quest to the next.
The builds can be so different that often, twoMagescan work in a group together.
It’s time to glide around as the Grand Master of the battlefield.

you’re able to unlock more abilities by increasing the rank of your chosenVocation.
It takes over 27,000Disciplineto reach level 9, the max level for allVocations.

Where to find the Mage Maister
TheMage Maisteris located just northwest ofMelve.

Is this the power of holy magick, or the sun?
Your brain is wrong.
We’ve got some dilemmas to get through.
You’ll want to save the forgeries for “The Sorcerer’s Appraisal” later.

Aim for everything, it doesn’t matter, it’s fire.
Trysha needs the real books, and she requires all five of them to obtain the Mage Maister skill.
The last two books are in the same chest, and they’re not far fromTrysha.
Head east to a place called “Waterfall Cave.”

This girl has Matilda energy.
If you came in runningHigh Empyrean, this fight will be easy.
Without it, you’ll struggle a bit.
I went and stayed at a campsite for a couple of days.

Follow the red path!
Afterward, come back at night, and a fireworks display will greet you.
Trysharuns mad after reading the tomes as her magickal power bursts from her body.
Your job is to avoid her spells and expend her mana pool.

The cave is full of mobs that are weak to fire, and two bosses that are weak to holy.
I rushed the fight by constantly chasing her until I got close enough to grab her.
This ended the fight prematurely.
She’ll need rest after this ordeal.

Most of her spells are telegraphed through a circle on the ground. Avoid these.Trysha runs mad after reading the tomes as her magickal power bursts from her body. Your job is to avoid her spells and expend her mana pool. I rushed the fight by constantly chasing her until I got close enough to grab her. This ended the fight prematurely. She’ll need rest after this ordeal. Go back to the campsite and wait another two days before returning. When she’s awake, the quest will update. So don’t go peaking beforehand; there’s no point.

The Fire and the Flames, they carry on!
Like in Bakbattahl, there isn’t a reason to run fire-based spells.
Too many enemies are strong against them, while plenty are weak to fire inVernworth.
Overall, there are two main builds I suggest players use as a base for early-game and endgame content.

Throwing the kitchen sink at him to see what worked, holy-based magic in the beginning areas is useless.
These builds will be changed slightly here and there, but they’ll be your must-have in many situations.
Even in later content,High Flagarationwill stick around.
Levin/High Levinwill be your secondary damage skill.

One that you’ll dump rather quickly once you’ve obtained better spells.
For now, it does decent knockdown damage for flying enemies early in the game.
It also provides stuns on ogres, trolls, and cyclops.

Kill. All. Dragons.
Fire Boon/Fire Affinitywill increase your entire party’s DPS in the forest areas of the game.
Everything except some of the lizardfolk are fragile to fire-based attacks.
Secondly, depending on the situation, we’ll be swapping outFire Boon/AffinityforHigh HalidomorHigh Palladium.

This is my BOOM stick!
If it’s not, takeHigh Palladiumto grant shields to your party.
Best Mage Augments
Magehas a healthy amount ofAugmentsthey’ll be taking from everywhere.
Here are the bestAugmentsforMage:
Best team composition
First, I recommend a proper tank, aFighter.

What pawns do we want?
While you’re able to takeWarriors, you’ll spend more time healing them than you would aFighter.
The shield makes a difference when it comes to staying alive.
Second, I suggest aThief.

For the last role, my pick has to beSorcerer.
They’ll balance any elemental weakness of the party while providing tremendous damage potential.
Assess, deploy, reassess.

That wraps up our guide onMage.
I hope this helps keep you and your party members alive through even the worst fights.
Plenty of unknown elements are waiting behind every corner of the world, and theMagecan stop them all!

Until next time, Arisen, slay the Dragon!
