Max this skill only if you want to deal High Damage.
Fire Sorcerer : 1/10 or 7/10 for highest damage
Ice Sorcerer : 1/10


Frostbite [Attainable at Level 1]
This skill is very useful. It freezes the monster on the spot for X seconds. The number of seconds the monster is frozen on the spot increases as you level up the skill. When you use it on field monsters, they are usually dead before they can even reach you. This skill can also be used during boss fight to keep it away from you.
Fire Sorcerer : 0/10 or 1/10 for freeze
Ice Sorcerer : 1/10 for cheap MP cost or 7/10 for maximum freeze time


Flame Strike [Attainable at Level 12]
This skill is so-so. It is the most damaging Area of Effect skill with Damage over Time. It all hits the targets in its linear range.
Fire Sorcerer : 1/10 or 6/10
Ice Sorcerer : 0/10


Meteor Strike [Attainable at Level 12]
This skill is good. It has the largest Area of Effect range. This skill is usually spammed with Blizzard.
Fire Sorcerer : 1/10 or 6/10 for maximum damage from skill

Blizzard [Attainable at Level 20, Requires 1 point in Frostbite]
This skill is good. It has the largest Area of Effect range. This skill is usually spammed with Meteor Strike. It also does a Slow debuff which decreases the target movement speed. Commonly used during boss fight to slow the boss so that you will receive lesser physical damage.
Fire Sorcerer : 0/10 or 1/10 for decreasing movement speed
Ice Sorcerer : 1/10 due to low increase in damage per skill level or 5/10 for maximum movement speed decrease

Breath of Life [Attainable at Level 5]
A must have skill for Sorcerer. Your teammate won’t lose a single EXP if you revive them when they die at field. You don’t have to level up this skill, because in this CBT every player gets 1,000 Mall Point. If they don’t have money to buy potion, they should just buy Item mall potions. They are expected to use potion the moment they are revived.
All : 1/5

Chapter 3: Levelling from 1 to 40

3.1: Levelling Tips

1) Buy Telefeather from the Item Mall and use them.
2) Get a couple for Couple EXP Bonus.
3) Get a party to complete quests faster.
4) Do all Main Quest and Dailies, except for Dungeon Quests.
5) Skip ALL Dungeon Quests until you reach Lv40
6) For Level 1-35, enter a party where you got at least one member doing main quests that you did before. This is so that when you do your Dailies, it might ask you to kill the same monster that party member is killing for his or her Main Quest.
7) Kill Invasion Bosses for a chance to get area tokens to trade in for EXP boost.
8) Buff up before fighting bosses and kite to reduce chances of dying.
9) Buy NPC Robes and Weapons before Lv40 if you cannot get any good one from monster drops. This will reduce chance of dying and increase killing speed.
10) Always buy and open a Clan Quest when you reach a new area. It will sync with your Main Quest.
11) Do Chance Quests while doing other quests.
12) Use your EXP Charm from Level 35 Mystic Jade.

3.2 : Levelling from 1 to 10

Just keep doing Main Quests and Dailies. At Level 6 you will unlock Crafting, but ignore it. At around Level 10 you will attain your first pet from quest. Pick Lil Bird, then open Pet Screen by pressing “F” and click “Merge”.

3.3 : Levelling from 11 to 20

Just keep doing Main Quests and Dailies. At Level 20 you can create clan, make one for Clan Quests if you don’t want to join one. Starting a Clan require 1 Gold, but don’t worry you should have around 2g by then.

3.4 : Levelling from 21 to 35

From now on every time you travel to a new map buy and open a Clan Quest first. Continue doing Main Quests and Dailies. Starting from Level 30, Main Quests will not give you enough EXP to level up, but no worries just keep doing Dailies like you did before.

3.5 : Levelling from 36 to 40

You have to do Clan Quests to level up fast from Level 35 onwards. It is recommended to do Clan Quests in a party of five. You’re also recommended to do Chance Quests, which can be received from right clicking Dumping Scrolls dropped by monsters at the area.

Shortest Time Taken For Level 1 – 40 : 983 Minutes (16 Hours)
