Info

Mage is one of the three main classes in TMW. It's the most powerful class out of all three. Mage is easier to train at higher level, preferable starting at level 70 as it needs lots of items and status points. At level 70 you obtain either Wooden Staff or Wizard Hat along with Fine Dress will make make good mage equip for starters. It is recomended to have an alternate character to hunt for various items like Iron Ore which mages need in huge quantity. It's very important that mages focus on Classic:Astral Soul Skill which increases your magic attack.

Note The Mana World doesn't define any class. Classes are defined by players according to the stats and equipment.
