Magic Gladiator Build in MU Online
Magic Gladiator build for MU Online: how to create an MG, strength or energy stat points, the skills for each stage and how to farm with Idle.
The Magic Gladiator (MG) fights with both sword and magic. It gets 7 points per level, against 5 for the Dark Knight, Dark Wizard and Fairy Elf. It has no 2nd class: it goes straight to Duel Master at level 400. The path is in class evolution.
How to create one
On Idle MU the Magic Gladiator is available from the first character on the account. On the character selection screen, click Create and pick the class.
It starts with 26 Strength, Agility, Vitality and Energy, 110 life and 60 mana.
What it does well
- Levels fast. The 7 points per level feed the attack and still leave some for life and mana.
- Has both skill lists. It uses the Dark Wizard's spells (Evil Spirit, Hellfire, Inferno), the Dark Knight's Twisting Slash and its own: Power Slash, Fire Slash, Flame Strike and Gigantic Storm.
- Picks its path. The same MG can go strength or energy, and switch later with
/resetstats.
Points and resets
Each level gives 7 points. On a reset your points are cleared and replaced by 1,500 × the number of resets, and the 7 per level add up again as you level back up.
To avoid assigning points by hand every level, queue them: /auto str 400 agi 100 places your next points automatically, in that order. See keys and commands.
Strength MG
Sword skill damage comes from Strength. Energy also adds a little to the MG's physical damage, and each point of it gives 2 mana.
| Stat | Per level | What for |
|---|---|---|
| Strength | 4 | Damage and weapon requirements. The Orb of Fire Slash needs 320 Strength |
| Agility | 1 | Attack speed and defense |
| Vitality | 1 | 2 life per point |
| Energy | 1 | Mana for skills |
Skills by stage:
| When | Skill | How to learn it |
|---|---|---|
| Level 80 | Twisting Slash | Orb of Twisting Slash, sold by Pasi the Mage in Lorencia |
| With the weapon | Power Slash | Comes with the MG swords, such as Dark Reign Blade and Rune Blade |
| 320 Strength | Fire Slash | Orb of Fire Slash, drops from monsters |
| Level 220 | Flame Strike | Crystal of Flame Strike, drops from high-level monsters |
Twisting Slash hits all around you and carries the early game. From level 220 on, Flame Strike is the main skill.
Energy MG
Magic damage comes from Energy, which also fills your mana. This is the variant for players who prefer to attack from range.
| Stat | Per level | What for |
|---|---|---|
| Energy | 4 | Magic damage and mana |
| Agility | 1 | Attack speed and defense |
| Vitality | 1 | 2 life per point |
| Strength | 1 | Only up to the weapon requirement |
Skills by stage:
| When | Skill | How to learn it |
|---|---|---|
| Start | Fire Ball, Lightning, Meteorite, Ice, Poison | Scrolls sold by Pasi the Mage in Lorencia |
| Next | Flame and Twister | Scrolls sold by Izabel the Wizard in Devias |
| Mid game | Evil Spirit, Hellfire, Aqua Beam, Cometfall, Inferno | The Scroll of Evil Spirit and the other scrolls drop from monsters |
| Level 220 | Gigantic Storm | Scroll of Gigantic Storm, drops from high-level monsters |
Evil Spirit is the area skill that takes an energy MG to level 220. After that, Gigantic Storm.
Each scroll requires a minimum Energy, shown on the item itself. The full list is in skills.
With Idle
Idle uses one attack skill. Pick an area one:
- Strength: Twisting Slash early, Flame Strike after 220.
- Energy: Evil Spirit early, Gigantic Storm after 220.
Without VIP, Idle only drinks life potions. Your mana has to last on its own: keep enough points in Energy or pick a cheaper skill. With VIP, turn on the mana potion too.
Where to leave your MG at each level range is in where to farm.
