At the start of the game players no longer get to choose the stats for their characters by rolling dice. GlobalMS now allows you to add your stats anyway you want, and a 1st job instructor (i.e. Grendel the Really Old) will correct them. Spend your free Ability Points at each level by adding 1 to DEX and 4 to STR until you become a magician. '''Note''': as of the GlobalMS patch v0.66, beginners can only put stats into STR and DEX, to allow quick training while on Maple Island. Unfortunately, INT affects how much MP you gain every time you level up, so you will now end up with less MP than mages from other versions. In older versions you were able to gain 100+ MP from the first 10 levels by spending all of your AP on INT.

When training switch between meso training and exp training, as spamming genesis at skelegosaurus is not economical and sustainable. Utilize Heal and Shining Ray until you have earned 1 million, buy suitable MP pots, and start spamming Genesis once again, until your 1 million is used up. Then, start earning mesos again.
