Professor: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 21:20, 24 July 2026

Professor is the transcendent class of the Sage, gained after rebirth. Professors keep the Sage's entire toolkit and gain powerful support and disruption skills: Soul Burn to destroy an enemy's SP, Mind Breaker to amplify the magic damage a target takes, Memorize to slash cast time, and the Wall of Fog and Spider Web battlefield-control fields. They remain the Mage line's premier utility and anti-caster class.

Skills

Soul Burn

Soul Burn
Job	Professor
Type	Active
Target	Enemy
Max level	5
SP cost	80 / 90 / 100 / 110 / 120
Range	9 cells
Cooldown	10s (Lv 1–4), 15s (Lv 5)

A premier anti-caster strike that attempts to wipe out an enemy's entire SP pool in an instant. The gamble cuts both ways: a failed cast backfires and burns the Professor's own SP instead. At its highest mastery the spell also blasts the target with magic damage tied to the SP destroyed. → Soul Burn

Mind Breaker

Mind Breaker
Job	Professor
Type	Active
Target	Enemy
Max level	5
SP cost	12 / 15 / 18 / 21 / 24
Range	9 cells
Duration	30 seconds

A double-edged debuff that whips a single enemy into a heightened magical state, sharply raising the magic damage it deals but leaving its magic defenses badly exposed. Casting it also interrupts the target's current spell and yanks monster aggression onto the Professor. A staple setup tool for partnering with allied nukers. → Mind Breaker

Memorize

Memorize
Job	Professor
Type	Supportive
Target	Self
Max level	1
SP cost	1

A self-buff with a lengthy channel that primes the Professor for a flurry of rapid spellcasting, sharply cutting the variable cast time of the next several learned-skill casts. Spells granted by items are unaffected, and the buff lasts until all its charges are spent. → Memorize

Wall of Fog

Wall of Fog
Job	Professor
Type	Active
Target	Ground
Max level	1
SP cost	25
Range	9 cells
Element	Earth
Duration	20 seconds

Conjures an Earth-element fog cloud on the ground that reliably Blinds anyone standing inside it, crippling their accuracy. The blind refreshes while a unit lingers in the fog and clings to them for a while after they leave; standing on a Deluge tile grants immunity. → Wall of Fog

Spider Web

Spider Web
Job	Professor
Type	Active
Target	Enemy
Max level	1
SP cost	50
Range	9 cells
Duration	16 seconds
Catalyst	1 Spider Web

Ensnares an enemy in sticky webbing, rooting it in place and gutting its evasion. While caught, the target is doubly vulnerable to Fire — the first Fire hit lands amplified and tears the web apart. A potent combo setup that consumes a Spider Web item. → Spider Web

-Soul Burn attempts to instantly destroy 100% of an enemy's SP, with a success chance of 40% to 70% by level. A failed cast backfires and drains the Professor's own SP instead. At level 5 only, the cast also deals magic damage equal to twice the SP burned (to the target on success, or to the caster on failure).

-Mind Breaker debuffs a single enemy for 30 seconds, raising its magic attack by 20 × SkillLv percent while reducing its magic defense by 12 × SkillLv percent (up to +100%/−60% at level 5). It also cancels the target's current cast and forces monsters to aggro the Professor. Success chance is 55 + 5 × SkillLv percent.
