Salazar's Guide to the Perfect Mage
Hello. I am only level 34 but who cares? I play on MapleGlobal at Bera. Anyways, to get on to the guide. This guide will tell you how to be a great magician while gaining fast exp.
Introduction
I hope this guide will help you learn a lot about magicians and their skills. Although they have pros, they have cons.
Pros
Mages do great damage in the beginning.
Have a lot of MP(if you get the right stats)
Recovers a lot of MP.
Can use defending and attacking skills.
Gets a lot of mesos.
Cons
Mages have little health.
Need to buy a lot of Blue Potions even though they get a lot of MP.
Damage stays very low compared to others in the later stages.
Getting Started
To be a great mage, you need great stats. You should start out like this:
STR: 4 or 5 (I recommened the 4)
DEX: 4 or 5 (Same thing as STR)
INT: * (Can be anything)
LUK: * (Can be anything)
Both INT and LUK must be used for equipments, armor, etc. INT raises your magic attack and magic defense. INT is essential(necessary)!!! LUK is just used only to meet the requirements of the weapons and armor.
Stat Distribution
If you don't know the stat distribution, you should read this becuase this is important.
You can do it 2 different ways. They both meet the requirments for the weapons and armor.
Recommended Way: You should have 3 more LUK than your level, and everything else on INT. NEVER PUT ANYTHING ON DEX STR HP OR MP!!! Ex:If you are level 14, you should have 17 LUK.
Other Way: You can put 5 INT for 4 levels, and 5 LUK for 1 level. You should use the top, recommended way, but its your choice.
Training on Maple Island
In Maple Island, magicians train so slow that you might want to quit. If you want to make a perfect mage, you need a lot of patience. Anyways, you only to to be level 8 to become a magician. NEVER BECOME A MAGICIAN AT LEVEL 10!!! You shouldn't because you are wasting SP points (we will get to that later). Check your quests and do every quest that is in Maple Island except Bigg's quest. Train on Blue Snails or Green Snails. Every time you level, check your SP book by click K. Put 3 on Recovery and 3 on Three Snails. Note: This is only for beginning purposes.
