Magicians have the highest magic defense in the game, and have the most MP, however many magician skills sap away a lot of MP. At the 3rd Job, Magicians can acquire elemental resistance, rendering them more resistant to element based attacks. | Magicians have the highest magic defense in the game, and have the most MP, however many magician skills sap away a lot of MP.

On the other hand, Magicians have the lowest weapon defence and HP in the entire game, making them prone to dying without their skill Magic Guard, which diverts 80% of damage taken from monsters to MP. However, MP pots cost twice the cost of HP pots. | On the other hand, Magicians have the lowest weapon defence and HP in the entire game, making them prone to dying without their skill Magic Guard, which diverts 80% of damage taken from monsters to MP.

Many magicians depend on luck to don equipment and improve their accuracy (0.3 accuracy per LUK), but luck also decreases the amount of experience lost per death (minimum 5% experience lost upon death when luck is above 75, maximum 10% exp loss when luck is below 10. In some versions, the requirement is lower, 4 luck means 10% exp loss, 10 luck will grant the player 5% exp loss). However, adding luck reduces the number of points you can place in intelligence, which improves your attack (intelligence increases the damage output of spells, as each attack is primarily based off of a combination of Int and your wand's magic attack. Also note that 1 INT = 1 MA and 1 MD.). However, unlike the other classes, magicians rely on hands to hit monsters. Every AP added into Dexterity, Intelligence, and Luck earns you 1 Hand, so AP added in Luck has some benefits. | Many magicians depend on luck to don equipment and improve their accuracy (0.3 accuracy per LUK), but luck also decreases the amount of experience lost per death (minimum 5% experience lost upon death when luck is above 75, maximum 10% exp loss when luck is below 10.
