Overview

Sages are a PvP-oriented class with the role of caster/anti-Mage. They do not have the offensive abilities of a Wizard, but are a slightly buffed version of Mage with their Free Casting. Sages shine in their defensive abilities, with many builds centered around Land Protector. Dispell is also a popular and sought-after spell which is useful for removing buffs from the enemy. Many of their skills can only realistically be used in PvP, making PvM quite difficult, particularly for VIT/DEX builds that have difficulty solo leveling. Battle sages are a 'for fun' build which can become a powerful leveling build with the recent buffs to Auto Spell and the right gear.

Job Change Guide

See Sage Job Change Guide for detailed information.

Changing into a Sage from a Mage requires the player to complete a number of tasks:

Item Collection
Written Test
Battle Test
Thesis Composition

After completing these tests, the player will be transformed into a Sage. This takes place in Geffen.

Endow Skill Elemental Points

A Sage's endow skills use Points. For example, Lightning Loader uses a Yellow Wish Point. Points can be purchased from the Elemental Points NPC in Geffen that is found in two different locations: to the right of the fountain geffen12749, and also on one of the lower floors of the Geffen Tower gef_tower40105.

-== Equipment ==
-{{Outdated}}
-=== General Equipment Recommendations ===
-:''Main article: [[Equipment]]''
-The Equipment article lists some general all purpose equipment that is useful through the PVM phase and also for endgame use as well.
-=== Weapons ===
-After considering what requirement skills have (some skills can only be used with certain weapon types), the Weapon Search tool within the iRO Wiki DB site is very helpful. Generally, for physical classes (both melee and ranged), something with high [[ATK]] is best. For magic classes, something with high [[MATK]] is best.
-==== Book ====
-{{Item List |id=1564 |item=Encyclopedia |slots=2}}
-==== Knife ====
-{{Item List |id=1223 |item=Fortune Sword}}
-{{Item List |id=1237 |item=Grimtooth}}
-{{Item List |id=1228 |item=Combat Knife}}
-{{Item List |id=1242 |item=Dagger of Counter}}
-:[[VIT]]/[[DEX]] Sages can use Fortune Swords, Grimtooths, or Combat Knives for defensive purposes.
-:Battlesages can use Dagger of Counter for crits.
-==== Rod ====
-{{Item List |id=1611 |item=Arc Wand }}
-This easy to get item is the best weapon a Sage has access to until rebirth. It offers the highest mAtk of all non-trans staffs and is only 1-handed so the Sage can also wear a shield with it for damage reduction.
-=== Headgear ===
-==== Top ====
-{{Item List |id=5027 |item=Mage Hat}}
-:All around useful headgear for mage classes. Gives 2 INT and increases SP by 150.
-==== Bottom ====
-* {{item |id=2267 Cigarette}} or {{item |id=2268 Pipe }}<br/>3% damage from [[Insect]] race monsters.
-=== Shield ===
-Don't bother with the Mage-class Card combo (Parasite), just go for a racial card.
-* {{item |id=2102 Guard}}/{{item |id=2121 Memory Book}} <br/> Slotted memory book is very useful for caster sages, it has the same function as a guard with an additional +1 INT. Memory Book is also part of the Pocket Watch set.
-=== Accessory ===
-* {{item |id=2607 Clip}} <br/>Clips are good for utility cards, for example Creamy, Phen and Vitata. It is almost essential to get these cards, otherwise it will be significantly harder to level. Once the player reaches level 90 alternatively they can be slotted into Gloves/Rosaries for a small boost in stats and to make switching easier.
