FAQ
When can you become a Fire/Poison Wizard in Classic World?
At level 30. Grendel the Really Old in Ellinia starts the 2nd job chain; you collect 30 Dark Marbles in the Magician Job Instructor's test (The Forest North of Ellinia), bring The Proof of a Hero back and choose Fire/Poison Wizard.
What weapons does a Fire/Poison Wizard use?
Wands and staves. Spell speed ignores weapon speed, so the class guides say to take the highest Magic Attack you can equip.
How many SP does it take to max every Fire/Poison Wizard skill?
140 SP across 6 skills (MP Eater 20, Meditation 20, Teleport 20, Slow 20, Fire Arrow 30, Poison Breath 30). Our class guides count 121 SP from the advancement to level 70, so something is still unfinished at 70.
Is there a 3rd job after Fire/Poison Wizard?
Not yet. Classic World launched with 1st and 2nd job only, so Fire/Poison Wizard is your job for now. Nexon hasn't given a date for 3rd job.
Can I plan a Fire/Poison Wizard build before spending SP?
Yes. Our skill planner has the Fire/Poison Wizard skill tree with every level's stats and prerequisites, and you can share the build as a link.
