Long time no post! Been gone for about a few days. Anyways, I know I am just lvl 21 magician, but I wanna find what Class I am going to be. Fire/Poison mage Well I heard for a amount of person there not that fun. Ice/lighting Mage look Nice, But it looks a bit confusing. Finally Cleric, Most people are these, but for a good time ( lvl 30-38?) They still use magic claw and I am a slow lvl'er. So Help me Decide?

This is just what I've learned from reading what others have said, but...

I/L - Good for mobbing, quite expensive

F/P - Higher damage than I/L

Cleric - Usually quite rich because of the combination of Heal and MP eater

Personally, I love my I/L.

I have a Cleric and F/P just waiting to be made on other servers though..... >.>

Personally, I adore Fizards.
Simply because they do a lot of damage early on.
Howeverrr.
You have to wait until like..
Level 39-ish before Fire Arrow becomes stronger than Magic Claw.
:/

If you like dealing damage, Cleric is probably not the best choice for you.

I like I/L because having freeze and a mob skill comes in handy a LOT. With ice, you can fight things that have ranged attacks like Lioners and Red Drakes without having to worry much about their ranged attack. And mob skills are nice, well... when you come upon a mob. sweatdrop

I was about to scream Cleric, thinking this was only for F/P and I/L.

Honestly though, I would say Cleric, but that is my preference.

I like healing myself using MP instead of pots which cost Mesos.

I have tried my wifes F/P, and well...its ok.
It's practically the same as anything else to me.
Rather boring, but she only has the Fire Attack, and Magic Claw.
But then again, I don't think the Poison skill is any fun either.

I/L, I haven't tried, though, I could probably play my friends.
I love as an element, Lightning, in every game, so I/L is a good choice for me.
The Lightning skill hits mob enemies, which is nice, but I don't think it sustains sufficient damage until a higher level of the skill.
As for the Ice, the Ice skill can freeze some enemies, which is always helpful...especially for a Bandit who attacks close up.
No enemies running into your party members. ~_~

Clerics...everyone loves them.
Everyone wants one in their party.
Especially PQ.
Clerics are nice, but rather boring, as most tend to work on Heal as their first skill.
So yeah, you use Magic Claw for a long time.
Healing yourself is a plus, as you don't need to waste money on potions.
The support/buff skills a Cleric can learn are also a plus, though I don't really interest myself in such skills.
Invincible decreases the WEAPON Damage you receive, which is nice.
Bless increases WEP and MAG Def, which is nice also. :]
The only Attack Skill (besides Heal on undead) is Holy Arrow, which is also nice on Undead monsters, but I don't know how great the skill really is.
I think most builds tend to have it at a lower level compared to other things.
If anything, I'm sure its probably similar to Fire Arrow of a F/P, so you can't imagine it to be anything special or fun.

My Choice: I/L or Cleric.
I/L to mob monsters.
Cleric for the support skills and healing ability.

I'm a 48 cleric and I'm STILL using magic claw. And heal. Holy Arrow is the last skill I'm getting, and I'm not going to max it. xD
I get pwn'd all the time, being a solo cleric is NOT the way to go. thankgod for warrior friend <3

It's just your choice and preference.
I became a f/p just because i thought fire arrow looks cool. xD

I/L and F/P have to solo too much when they're higher lvl. You can tell at me all you want, but lets face it ><
In a big party, mages(I'm talking about 3rd job) are too weak and if they're higher lvl than most of the party, they will suck too much of the EXP so it isn't the best idea to invite a mage to your party. I personally like clerics/priests more because I like partying smile

i like..clerics..and fizards.. =^=
but....
not sure about ice mage...

cleric..they heal ;P yes everyone wants a cleric for partehs
but..fizards and lizards are like..higher damage in parteh...;P so..everyone wants strong mages in that parteh
(i got no clue to what i said) XDDD  
PostPosted: Mon Nov 12, 2007 10:10 pm
Oh yeah, I thought of another reason to be I/L instead of F/P. 2nd job ice and lightning attacks can go through walls, but 2nd job fire and poison attacks can't. 3nodding
