We will now look at some builds to level 30

Scarfac’s Mage Build

http://community.codemasters.com/fo...ad.php?t=215958

Blaze Wall: 2/5
Hell Typhoon: 3/5
Mass Snare: 3/5
Power Staff: 2/5
Wind Quake: 1/5
Stunner: 2/5
Reflection: 1/5
Endurance: 5/5
Intellect: 5/5
Mana Effect: 2/5
Physical Gain: 2/5

(according to the database Wind Quake cannot be added to level 2 until level 32. Thus I have corrected it accordingly for level 30)

Advantages
-Very good build. Basically grind up to level 22. Get Blaze wall at level 10 and pull mob trains.
-Very efficient. no return orb used.
-Physical gain gives a good HP increase allowing Mage to tank more at later levels.

Disadvantage
-May get boring pulling mob trains all the time in the beginning.
-Some early quests at early levels hard to complete due to lack of damage from spells. This gets better after level 22 of course
-no early PvP capabilities

Therefore it is a better strategy to go grinding as opposed to trying to complete all quests.
