Tips and Trivia

Genesis 30 is a very very meso heavy skill, with a FM price of 650-800million, it's the 2nd most expensive skill in the game behind Maple Hero 30.

Though Genesis 30 consumers less mana than Genesis 20, it's sheer lot more powerful, though most Bishops have Genesis 20, because of the price, and it's considered efficient enough(For leeching services), even if Genesis 20 requires 500 less mana than 30.

The 2 ways to get Genesis 30 is to either slay Horntail, or get it from the golden box during the Gachapon Key event.

Genesis is, by the stats, THE most powerful Mage attack there is, so that makes up COMPLETELY for the lack of attacking power that priests and clerics have, which also makes the 4th Job Advancement far more desirable for players that choose the Holy Path.

The opening animation, though different for each of the different Mage Classes, seems to have a similar "raining down" appearance. For example, when the shards of ice for Blizzard begin to rain down, you see a circle of something forming in the air, much like the yellow circles of light above each beam in Genesis. The same goes for Meteor Shower, when the meteors fall, the circle things form in the air.

Trivia

Genesis is the most powerful magic skill in the game at 670 basic attack when maxed. However Arch Mages can use Element Amplification to make their Blizzard/Meteor stronger than Genesis.

On the other hand, let's do the math:

Genesis on undead: 670 atk *2 (element bonus) = 1340 atk

Meteor on ice-based: [570 atk + 20 (meditation)] * 1.5 (element) * 1.4 (amp) * 1.25 (E.Staff/Wand 1/5) = 1548.75 atk

Chances are that it actually isn't. If this calculation is incorrect, please fix it.
