Sages are a particularly powerful class: they have the high MP and intelligence of the [[#Wizard|Wizard]], the strength and defense of a [[#Pilgrim|Pilgrim]], plus they can cast almost every spell in the game. There are a few high level weapons and armor that the Sage can equip that the Pilgrim cannot, but for the most part they are Pilgrims that know offensive magic. The only disadvantage of a Sage is that they require ''much'' more experience to level up than any other class; often 1.5 times as much. While you can often use the extra power of the Sage to push through dungeons earlier than you could without one, it will often catch up to you suddenly (usually when you reach a boss). | Sages are a particularly powerful class: they have the high MP and intelligence of the [[#Wizard|Wizard]], the strength and defense of a [[#Pilgrim|Pilgrim]], plus they can cast almost every spell in the game.

The actual attributes of a Sage are hard to state since it carries over much of its attributes from the original class. If you turn a Wizard into a Sage he/she will have more MP but less Strength than if you turned a Soldier into a Sage. That said, for the most part, no matter who you turn into a Sage, you're better off. | The actual attributes of a Sage are hard to state since it carries over much of its attributes from the original class.

In the remakes, a fitting [[../Personality/]] for a Sage should improve Intelligence. | |||

The Thief class is a new class that was introduced in the Super Famicom remake of ''Dragon Quest III''. Thieves have high agility, and have the ability to steal during battle. Their few spells are all very helpful, from ''Smell'', which tells you how many treasures are left in the area, to ''TipToe'', which lowers your random encounter rate. They are also the only character class that can use some of the powerful whips in the game, which attack not only a single monster, but an entire enemy group. | The Thief class is a new class that was introduced in the Super Famicom remake of ''Dragon Quest III''.
