Part 1 - Magician Build, Job Advancement
You need to know how to use the Ability Points properly in the MapleStory game to add to the stat of your Magician character at the very start of the game. This is to ensure that your Magician character will be at his full power.
Click on the "F" on the keyboard to bring up your stat screen whenever you level up. This is where you will be able to allocate your points into the stats of your choice.
The main stat for a Magician is Intelligence (INT) and most of your points should be put into that.
The other stat that a Magician needs is LUK. LUK (Luck) is only used for the Magician as a requirement to wear most Mage equipment.
In this case, you just need to keep LUK at 3 points above your existing level. So, if you are level 15 now, your LUK should be 18.
All other Ability Points should be put right into INT.
To advance to a Magician once you have hit level 8, head over to Perry and find your way to Magic Library at Ellina. Talk to Grendel the Really Old and he will then make you a Magician.
Once you become a Magician , you will have a whole new array of skills to destroy your enemies with. You will also be able to start using Skill Points in your Magician skills to become more powerful!
There are different ways to build/spec your Magician. It will all depend on your playing style and what you think will work best for you.
There are 2 Magician Builds that we would recommend:
Standard Build
Offensive Build
If you are tired of playing with the other Maple Story characters such as Warriors, you may want to have a change of character class and try your hand at being a Magician!
My MapleStory Magician training guide has all the details for training your Magician character.
Part 2 - Train your account
After you have an idea of how you will build/spec your Magician character in MapleStory, it is now time to actually go out and start leveling. The key is to find areas that do not have a lot of competition with other players, and that you are able to kill the monsters in 2-3 hits. Any thing higher than that is too powerful and anything lower than that will not give you enough EXP.
You also want to find a place where the monsters have a fast re-spawn rate so that there will be as little downtime as possible.
As you level up in the MapleStory game and explore zones, you will get the feel for which areas are good for your leveling and give good EXP while training your Magician character.
Let us give you some examples of the areas for training:
At levels 10 to 15, kill the Red Snail monster at Field, Forest. And the Slime at Field, Forest, Dungeon.
You can start off killing snails for quick EXP.
The first zone to the east of Hersheys is a great place to fight.
Each level has a higher monster that you can kill as you level up to level 15.
Our Magician character Training Guide provide all the details of the areas to train your Magician from levels 15 onwards.
If you are tired of playing with the other Maple Story characters such as Bowman, you may want to have a change of character class and try your hand at being a Magician!
