The official notes name no requirement other than the level. If the game asks for more, please send a correction with a screenshot.

Founder’s Access has first and second job only¹. Third job was open for testing at level 70 in Closed Online Test 2, and Nexon said test content may change². Nexon has not said when third job comes to the live game. Inkwell said content such as third job may arrive in stages³.

Stats

INT is the Magician’s main stat. It raises Magic Attack, raises Magician damage and Accuracy a little, and raises Magic Def a little. Nexon lists LUK as the secondary stat. LUK raises Evasion, raises Accuracy a little, and cuts the EXP you lose when you die (Character Stats guide⁴, Magician page⁵).

You get 5 AP each level. From level 10 you get 3 SP each level, plus 1 extra SP when you take first and second job⁴.

Announced fixes

The October 8, 2026 maintenance fixed two Cleric Heal bugs⁶:

• Heal reached farther than intended.
• Heal could be cast without enough MP.

Nexon’s notice for the October 15, 2026 maintenance lists these fixes⁷:

• The game could disconnect when Poison Breath hit a monster.
• The game could disconnect when you cast Heal on party members near Zombie Mushrooms in the Ant Tunnel.
• The Magic Armor afterimage drifted away from the character.

Nexon has not announced other Magician skill changes for Classic World.
