1st Job Advancement
Go to the Magic Library which is located at Ellinia, where the player meets up with Grendel the Really Old. Talk to him and he'll advance one as a Magician.

Fire and Poison Wizard
Fire/Poison Wizard, commonly referred to as F/P Mage or simply Fire Mage is a 2nd Job Advancement for the Magician. They can, however, do some of the best damage in the second job, due to the elemental advantage they get when training on monsters who are weak to the fire property, such as the majority of monsters in the El Nath region.

Lightning and Ice Wizard
Ice/Lightning Wizard, often called I/L Mage or Ice Mage, are one of the 2nd Job Advancements for the Magicians. They are a more popular choice at second job due to their mob attack, Thunder Bolt. However, excessive use of Lightning can be costly, as an I/L Mage would use more MP than a F/P Mage or Cleric, and more potions would need to be purchased to counteract this.



Cleric
Cleric is the type of Magician who use buffs and holy magic to help their teammates and destroy their enemies as well. They have a skill known as Heal, which heals all 6 party members and even attacks undead monsters. Due to this skill, Clerics have absolutely no need for HP potions. They also have MP Eater, which at a certain success rate, allows them to drain some of the monster's MP to fuel their own. With this, Clerics need fewer MP potions to sustain them. When a Cleric advance to a Priest, they gain a skill known as Holy Symbol, which helps the player on training as it adds 150% more exp from the monsters' exp.
