Hey, Da Blitz here to explain the Magicians path in the Game.
Ok, to become a Magician in this game, you need to be LV 8 and 20 INT(Intelligence) and then head to Ellina and talk to Grendel the Really Old to get the job Magician. Once you advance, you'll get the LV 1 Skill Book and 1 SP(Skill Point). You'll get 3 SP every time you LV up. Use these to advance and master your new skills.
Extras for advancing to Mage: Your MP WILL double+ and get a little HP.
Passive Moves = Abilities that activate on their own.
