Magician

Description

File:C magician.gif

Magicians are master summoners, able to call elemental pets to do their bidding and to conjure useful items from thin air. Magicians are primarily a magic-using class, with the ability to wear cloth armor and wield blunt weapons and daggers.

Elemental pets are at the heart of a magician's offensive strategy, and typically accompany a magician in all his adventures. This pet provides protection for its master, along with powerful attacks and special abilities. Magicians have a large selection of fire and magic-based damage spells, allowing them to mount a damaging magical assault in support of their elemental pet.

Magicians have a wide range of summoning spells, allowing them to conjure such diverse items as food, weapons, armor, and magical jewelry. In battle, the magician can encase his entire group in a shield of fire, damaging any opponent that strikes them. Magicians also have spells that lower a monster's resistance to magic, allowing spells to damage them more easily.

Magicians are a very focused class, sacrificing some diversity for power in their area of expertise. Magicians are able to adventure solo, but also provide value in a group situation. The magician is a good choice for players who enjoy managing a powerful pet and using a tightly focused spell selection.

Creation Guide

Picking the Right Race

Magicians must take into account a number of things. None of the pure caster class races have any experience penalties associated with them. A lot of Magicians choose the Erudite race since it has the highest base intelligence. Humans are popular for their rounded stats, and Dark Elves for their high agility and racial ability to Hide, though they are often killed on sight in many places. Conversely, Gnomes are generally well liked in most places.

Suggested Starting Statistics

It is very easy to assign yourself the wrong statistics and regret it for the rest of you characters career. Magicians are primarily about mana, and our suggested allocation of bonus points reflects this:

• For Dark Elves add 25 Intelligence and 5 Stamina.
• For Erudites add 25 Intelligence and 5 Agility. This will keep you from taking the <75 AGI massive AC hit.
• For Gnomes add 25 Intelligence and 5 Stamina.
• For High Elves add 25 Intelligence and 5 Stamina.
• For Humans add 25 Intelligence and 5 Stamina.

(This section needs a realistic/modern update for p1999.)

Experience Statistics

As of the January 2001 timeline patch, the class penalty was removed (September 21, 2015).

What does it mean?

Certain races and classes require differing amounts of experience points to attain the same level. For example, a Human Magician requires 110% of the experience that a Human Cleric would require to be the same level.

Religion

Generally speaking being agnostic is a fairly safe bet in Everquest. Follower of Tunare can quest for Chord of Vines.
