In the last issue, we introduced the Warrior section, and next we will introduce the Mage section of the MapleStory N, Leaf of Maple series!
The most comprehensive introduction to the five major professions: Warrior, Mage, Archer, (Thief) Assassin, and Pirate, so you won't be lost on your gold farming journey!
Now to the main topic, there are three roles to choose from in the Mage series (Archmage, Fire Poison, Ice Lightning), currently, these are the only three roles officially announced!
The Mage profession is synonymous with explosive power in any game, and it's the same in MapleStory. However, the common issue with Mages is their glass cannon nature, high damage but low health. During team dungeons, pay attention to positioning and direct cooperation with teammates; Mages are the main damage dealers. However, popular profession equipment may be relatively expensive; rich players can choose them, but common players must improve their grind significantly!
Display of the Three Major Mage Professions
Next, we will introduce the three professions of the Warrior series.
One: The Fire Poison Mage
A magician who covers the battlefield with powerful explosions and deadly poison.
The Archmage (Fire/Poison) uses fire magic to burn and poison all enemies in its path. The intense magic covers a large area and deals continuous damage to enemies within range. As the continuous damage accumulates on enemies, the devastating blow will reach an explosive climax.
Main Attribute: INT (Intelligence)
Weapon Used: Staff, Wand
Fire Attribute Full-screen Explosion
Poison Gas Fills the Entire Field
Two: The Ice Lightning Mage
A magician who subdues enemies with cold and sharp electric currents.
The Archmage (Ice/Lightning) uses ice magic colder than glaciers and instantaneously traverses between enemies, mercilessly shocking them with lightning magic. If you use lightning magic to shock frozen enemies, the damage will be higher, allowing you to deliver devastating blows.
Main Attribute: INT (Intelligence)
Weapon Used: Staff, Wand
Ice Spike Arrival
Area Electric Shock
Three: The Archmage
A magician with the dual powers of mercy and vengeance.
The Archmage is a magician who can summon either a merciful angel or a vengeful angel depending on the situation. The merciful angel's blessings protect and support allies, while the vengeful angel's wrath destroys evil and mercilessly judges enemies.
Main Attribute: INT (Intelligence)
Weapon Used: Staff, Wand

Below are the Mage profession rebirth paths, all first rebirths are Magicians, and the second war begins to determine the career path!
Next, let's summarize the three professions of the Mage branch:
Priest:
Strong Team Support: The Priest possesses skills like group healing and Holy Arrow, which are very important in team tasks or boss fights, making them an indispensable role in the team.
Healing Skills: The Priest can heal, allowing players to focus more on the overall survivability of the team without worrying about whether to use a certain magic skill.
Experience Bonus: The Holy Prayer skill can provide an experience bonus, although it only adds 20 points, it helps to some extent with leveling efficiency.
Ice Lightning Mage:
Fast Leveling in the Early Stages: The Ice Lightning Mage levels up quickly in the early stages, possessing area attack skills that can swiftly clear large numbers of monsters.
Control Skills: When using lightning skills to kill monsters, there is a certain percentage that causes monsters to be pushed back, which increases the player's survivability and battlefield control to some extent.
Fire Poison Mage:
High Attack Power: The Fire Poison Mage has high attack power, especially effective against ice attribute monsters.
Advantage on Specific Maps: In maps with concentrations of ice attribute monsters, such as the Ice City Snowfield in the sky, Fire Poison Mages have a significant advantage.
Attribute Points: Magic Attack: As the main output attribute, it should be prioritized for improvement.
Penetration: Increases the damage penetration effect against enemies, which is equally important.
