Problem!!!!

[Cutey_Cloe]

My problem is that mages die to fast.
I always get yelled by others that I can't attack first but then I don't get much EXP (I mean in Kingdom Quest)
Can anybody give me some advice.:confused:

By the way i'm level 13

Well mages will die fast no matter what and how high your level is, the key to keep your mage alive is to know how to work in a party OR know how to kite, if u r not a kiting type of person than try fighter or cleric.

Gratz, you found out what a mage is! You have to be smart to keep alive or just Pew Pew stuff.

[Deedolith]

Ask your tank to push the taunt button :D.
And make sure you're only attacking tanked and taunted mobs. Assist your tank for that.

[Lloriath]

mages pretty much either kill the monster in like a few hits from far distances taking mayb 1 hit or none or they dont fight that monster theres nothing u can do for when ur in a kq because those monsters r stronger than normal ones so ur outa luck there if u dont like that b a fighter or archer

[SpeedBurner]

You know what you should do?

Hide.

Hide, hide, hide, hide, hide.

When other people start taking the beating, THEN you strut your stuff. EXP doesn't matter who hits first, it's who deals the most damage. And Mages excel at that.

Just keep yourself safe by putting others in danger, 'kay?

mages dont need more def .. that would just be unfair because they have such high dmg ... just do your part .. let the warriors do the tanking .. and you jus nuke the hell out of their targets, you dont like it? wanna go and be the first to atk stuff? maybe you should be a warrior... =/

[Lost_Sign]

well most jobs must have their disadvantges~ Archers lack Damage Mage Lacks Defend... what does warriors lack 0.o and what do clerics lack? Clerics are god like in Gulid wars they almost never die 0.o

[fundude93]

well, actually, thery could use just a teeny bit more endurance or health or something, they tend to get mobbed to death quickly when being attacked by multiple things

[magicrfren]

i agree. In KQs you just let the tank get the hits but soloing you die really fast or inhale your pots so i think they need more END

EXP doesn't matter who hits first, it's who deals the most damage.

You sure about that, bud? Seems like the exp is distributed according to level to everyone in the group whether or not they even touched the mob. That's how my godly level 50 friends can help level my lil 30-something cleric (miss...miss...OH! a crit for a total of SIXTY! Thank you crit gods! O: ...More missing). No matter how much she hits for (I rather just let her sit back and heal anyway, it's more useful and doesn't miss >.<), she still gets a chunk of the exp.

Mages in every MMORPG have the smallest amount of HP than any of the other classes. Join parties or just be strategic with the way you use your HP stones or potions. I just keep constant watch on my health bar and use my stones or pots when appropriate.

[Xanthros]

Mages are insane blasters who crumble like paper if touched. That said... your role in the party is NOT getting up close to the tank unless one of a -very- few situations exist where the whole party got in way over their heads, and you're wanting to go down fighting in hopes of keeping part of the party alive.

"very few situations" defined:

Tank is engaged with 3 or more things that are orange+, and you're sitting on a spawn point... tank is now engaged with 6. Most mages wouldn't do this, but as a mage I'd rush the tank and AOE like it's going out of style while the other ranged (hopefully archer for DoT) laid down the poison like it was going out of style.

In short... exploit the ranged to the best of your ability, it's a lifesaver and you won't be able to go toe to toe melee against anything semi-bigger than you without burning massive stones, and you may still die if they get a crit in.

That is correct, exp is distributed according to the levels of everyone in the group, with a group average modifier compared to the NPC level.

fighters lack SP and magic def, clerics lack high damage.
