The Mage, Warlock, and Magician are the only three classes that use the Mage system of Magik.
Mage spells offer a variety of damage and movement abilities. A wide range of damage types and homing projectiles can be used to great effect against the proper enemies, and Mages can cast strong Shields, Blink and Fly into otherwise inaccessible areas, and buff themselves in a variety of ways. Mages can even become temporarily invulnerable once they become powerful enough.
The range of Mage abilities offers a variety of playstyles. The Warlock is a fighter variant, and the Magician is a rogue variant of the Mage class. They both have +50% mana regeneration along with their extra melee damage and thief skills, respectively. The Mage class itself has +200% mana regeneration, for triple the normal rate. While the Warlock and Magician make good hybrids from the start, the Mage is extremely weak starting out, and many players can find themselves deterred by the long amounts of time spent regenerating mana. However, once the Mage can reliably cast Demon Pact and use mana regeneration items, or once he reaches a high enough level, he can become an unstoppable force. The combination of Fly, two speed buffs for +25 speed total, powerful shield spells, death ward, super magic maps, and brutally powerful attack spells turns high-level Mages into the strongest characters in the game.
Warlocks will want to focus on using Regenerate and several Elemental Attack spells to deal massive amounts of melee damage efficiently. They can use chain, so they don't really need to worry about Shields.
Magicians will want to use Silence to buff stealth, as well as Shadow Form (translucency) and later Gaseous Form (invisibility) to steal and sneak up on enemies reliably.
Mages need to focus on stacking Shields (Deflect 25%, Shield 40%, and Shield rings can reach the cap of 90% damage reduction!), as well as on gaining as much mana regeneration as possible (Demon Pact, amulets, weapons) and magic (Mantra) to employ spells like Death Cloud, which do enormous damage. Allowing Death Cloud's strong poison to work will increase its efficiency as well.
