Sorcerers embrace the natural and spiritual essence of magic, calling upon elemental spirits and ancient forces. They are conduits of balance, harmonizing the seen and unseen worlds.

A Scholar needs to be 99/70 in order to job change into a Sorcerer.

At Base Level 170, you can change your Job Sprite to the alternative jRO version by following the instructions found here.

Unlike their predecessors, Sorcerers have the ability to do area of effect damage. Psychic Wave will be your most used area spell due to its major damage, large AoE, and Neutral element (you can "endow" your Psychic Wave via summons).

• Diamond Dust (Water element) has an average AoE, damage, and cast time.
• Earth Grave (Earth element) has an average AoE, lower damage, and a quick cast time (has the ability to knock units out of hide/cloak).
• Varetyr Spear (Wind element) has a smaller AoE, average damage, quick cast time, and has a short cast range (requires a target unit).

The three elemental spells are heavily based on the level of their corresponding endow.

• Killing Cloud (Poison element) has an average AoE, damage, and cast time (hits multiple times).

Sorcerers have the ability to summon elementals that have very powerful abilities to help the summoner. There are 3 levels for each element, each having a different summoning requirement (catalyst). A summons stats are directly based on that of the sorcerer (ie A high agi / flee sorcerer will create a summon with high flee). A summon has the elemental resistance of that elemental type (Agni is 100% fire). Summons each have the ability to change the element of Psychic Wave, change the Sorcerers elemental resistance (100% resistance to that element), and boost certain elemental spell's damage. On top of that, each element has a specialty.

• Fire - Used mostly for its ability to boost the Atk of the sorcerer and increase the recovery amount of Warmer (+10%).
• Water - Used mostly for its ability to boost the Matk of the Sorcerer.
• Wind - Used mostly for its ability to boost ASPD, reduce total cast time, and create a defensive barrier.
• Earth - Raises max HP and defense of the Sorcerer, and can cause stun with its attacks. It is somewhat less desirable than other summons.

At first, Insignias can be a little confusing and hard to use, but they can be extremely powerful. Insignias require a bit of setup and coordination and also have high skill requirements.

• Insignias can be created of the 4 basic elements.
• Only one of each elemental insignia can be placed at a time (insignias do not share the same cooldown).
• Insignias are 3x3 ground enchants.
• Each cast cost 1/2/3 Point (depending on level used), which can be bought in Geffen tower (200z ea).
• Points are Etc item, each having a different element corresponding to that insignia (Scarlet Point/Indigo Point/Lime Green Point/Yellow Wish Point).

Each insignia has 3 levels.

• Level 1 - Boosts the ability / HP and SP regen of that corresponding elemental summon.
• Level 2 - Changes weapons element to the insignia element (this excludes monster skills).

Any unit, friend, or monster that stands INSIDE the insignias 3x3 AoE attack will change. For example, if you are wearing fire armor, and a monster hits you while THEY are standing in a level 2 fire insignia, you will take reduced damage (Fire attack vs Fire Armor - 1/4 damage taken). If you have 100% immunity to that element, you will take 1 damage.

When stacking multiple level 2 insignias on the same target, the targets attack will turn to the most recent insignia you placed on that target.

• Level 3 - Increases that players elements magic damage when THEY are standing inside the insignia and additional bonuses to that element (faster cast time, more matk, etc).

Each insignia has the ability to boost the counter element no matter which level you use. For example, if you use Fire Insignia at any level, any unit INSIDE the insignias 3x3 AoE will take +50% damage to water elemental attacks. Each insignia also has the ability to heal or damage 1% hp every 5s depending on their element. It will heal the same element and damage opposite element (see insignia links below for more info). This is VERY important to understand when dealing with mvps. For example, fire insignia level 2 might seem like a good idea on Ifrit because it will turn his attack to fire (tank will take less damage if he is wearing fire armor / fire resistance) and will also boost water attacks on him, but he will also heal for 1% hp every 5s (~70k hp a sec). This can be countered by also placing a water insignia (-1% hp every 5s).

Additional examples

• Your tank comes back with a few more monsters than he is able to handle. If you know what armor they are using, placing a level 2 insignia on top of the monsters will reduce the damage they take by 1/4.
• Precasting magic while standing in level 3 insignias.
• A person, with 100% water resistance, tanking an MVP (ie Drake). Water insignia level 2 on the MVP will reduces its damage considerably and increase all incoming wind attacks by +50%.
• Summons will take 1 damage if you place the corresponding level 2 insignia.

Psychic Wave is the most powerful spell in the Sorcerer's arsenal. The skill hits enemies in waves for a total number of (Skill Lv. + 2) times and if a weapon of type Staff or Book is equipped the skill will damage twice in each wave. There are many equipment that can be used for this build and their prices vary depending on the demand which is always high considering this is one of the best damage dealers.

This is not a very good F2P starter build and needs some / considerable level of investment. But once built properly this build can be used to farm and hunt pretty much all of the content in game with ease.

• STR: 1-100
• AGI: 1-100
• VIT: 95-120
• INT: 40-90 (INT is now necessary due to it being in the cast time formula and Soul Exhale only giving half your current SP.)
• DEX: 100-120
• LUK: 30-100

The Support type is going to differ from how the Scholar class was in pre-renewal. Soul Exhale now has a 3 second fixed cast time and only gives your target half of your current SP. Gone are the days that Champions (now Suras) can be filled instantly and quickly for fast leveling. Magnetic Earth has lost some of its usefulness as many 3rd class skills bypass it. Dispell has also been given a large fixed cast time. Due to this and the lack of many new support skills, the niche that Scholars used to have has been diminished. The role has not been lost! Due to the advent of status inflicting spells such as Diamond Dust and Arrullo, the AoE healing abilities of Warmer with no catalyst cost (especially with fire summon), and the supporting skill that can be achieved through Summon skills, the Sorcerer can be a very powerful support. Striking is a great buff to ATK classes (both physical and ranged ones). Note that a support oriented Sorcerer can still opt for the AoE Sorcerer skills to provide some damage when needed, at least in the leveling phase. Stats-wise, a support Sorcerer does not necessarily differ too much from an offensive caster Sorcerer. Some players may choose to go with a complete full support build for their Sorcerers who have reached 150/50 however.

Spell Fist Sorcerers is the evolution of the Hindisight/Bolt Scholar. By combining bolt damage into their auto attacks, they can increase their damage output. With the latest October 22 skill update, Spell Fist became a buff that lasts 3 minutes instead of powering a specific number of auto attacks. Thanks to this buff and the new Elemental Summons from Elemental Masters, there isn't a need for Hindisight to finish or complete your dps. However, Sorcerers can use this skill until they reach Elemental Masters to increase their damage further. This build is still single-target focused but very flexible as you can combine spell fist with other auto-cast skills and gears or be a battle sorcerer. Spell Fist Sorcerers can kill MVPs by combining the Insignias, Elemental Summons, and terrain skills(Whirlwind, Diluvio or Volcano); however, they struggle to kill Holy 4 and Dark 4 MVPs as they are immune to elemental damage.

A spell fist build is dedicated to boosting either Fire/Cold/Thunder bolt using gears such as Magical Rings, Magician's Night Cap and Juu cards, and other gear that improve magical damage. Leeching gear, cards and pets also help as Spell Fist is a melee magical skill, meaning that it takes advantage of effects that are triggered by doing auto attacks. However, physical damage modifiers do not increase the skill damage. It's recommended that Sorcerers choose a primary element to focus on, as gears tend to increase only one element type.

Primary Skills Used
Spell Fist	Hindsight	Double Bolt	Fire Bolt	Cold Bolt	Lightning Bolt
Fire Insignia	Water Insignia	Wind Insignia	Earth Insignia	Call Agni	Call Aqua	Call Ventus

What sets sorcerer apart from their warlock counterpart is the ability to achieve instacast, this applies to some offensive skills (like Psychic Wave, Diamond Dust) and some support skills (like Soul Exhale)

There are 2 things that you need to have in order to achieve instacast :

• Skills (particularly Call Ventus and Spirit Control)
• Equipment (particularly stacking variable cast time reductions stuff)

The 2 main skills that you need to have are :

Skill	Skill Level	Usage
Call Ventus	1-3	The Ventus summon allows the sorcerer to reduce their fixed cast time by 1 sec. This is a huge boost considering most of sorcerers skills has a 1 sec fixed cast time on them, so using ventus means you can get rid of the fixed cast time part on some of your skills. Note that level 1 to 3 Ventus gives the same amount of fixed cast time reduction
Spirit Control	1	In order for the summon ventus to reduce your fixed cast time, it needs to be put in passive mode, and Spirit Control level 1 puts your summoned spirit in passive mode, so dont forget to cast it before you go into a fight

Other skills that you can consider getting :

Skill	Skill Level	Usage
Spirit Cure	1	This skills allows you to cure your summoned spirit using your hp and sp. To achieve instacast you need Ventus alive and in passive mode, so making sure that Ventus last as long as possible is very helpful
Spirit Sympathy	1	This skill increases your summoned spirit max hp and sp. This skill helps in giving ventus a little bit more survivability, though not necessary

Another part of achieving instacast is the equipments you're using. Stacking variable cast time reductions is a must because your fixed cast time reductions has been taken care of by Ventus, which means you need to get some equipments enchanted, particularly with the spell enchants (please refer to the Malangdo Enchants, Fallen Angel Wing Enchants, RWC Accessory Enchants, and Temporal Boots Enchants page on how to get spell enchants). With the amount of equipments available, there are a lot of choices that you can use to reduce your variable cast time, it just amounts to whatever funds you may have and what situations you are using them for

Here are a list of equipments setups that you can use to reduce your variable cast time (note that these are just examples and not the only combinations available, you can mix and match them to suit your own needs) :
