[header=1]Introduction[/header]

This is still, in my opinion, the best ever description of the I/L Magician, quoted from abakre2 's guide.

[i]"Bam. With the first cast, blizzard showers on the monsters. A skele is left soon to be totaled with a quick shock of chain lightning. Repeat. With pure elegance the I/L Arch Mage grinds showing off his flashy skills. One by one the attacks resemble mighty speed. Not the feel of power but the feel of accomplishment. The glowing timeless staff waving around, the technique is what we make of an Ice Lightning Magician. [b]A staff is at times similar to a sword. Not a weapon but an extension and to master the skills one must learn.[/b][/i]

[i][b]The art of Magic is not a gift but a talent."[/b][/i]

[b]Luk Magician[/b]
Luk Magicians begin in the game as weaker than their Lukless and LowLuk counterparts. However, by level 200, a Luk Magician is slightly stronger than a Lukless or LowLuk Magician with no party buffs or Magic Attack potions.
Luk Magicians always keep their Luk 3 points higher than their level. This is required to wear Magician equips. The rest of their AP goes into Int.

[b]Lukless Magician[/b]
Lukless Magicians begin in the game as stronger than their Luk and LowLuk counterparts. However, by around level 70, LowLuk Magicianswill begin to overtake them. At level 200, Lukless Magicians are stronger than Luk Magicians with several party buffs and a Magic Attack potion.
Lukless Magicians keep their Luk at the base of 5. They put ALL of their AP into Int. Some Lukless Magicians choose to get Luk equips, so that they may wear Magician equips that require Luk.

[b]LowLuk Magician[/b]
LowLuk, arguably the best way to go, begins the game with medium damage. They overtake Lukless by around level 70, and by level 200, they have the potential to be the strongest Magician out of all 3 AP Distributions.
LowLuk Magicians add Luk like Luk Magicians until their Luk reaches a certain point, at which they cap it. The rest of their points the rest of the game go into Int. It is the choice of the Magician on where to cap Luk, but commonly, it is capped at 50.
