= Sage = | |||
The '''Sage''' is a [[Second Classes|second class]] of the [[Mage]] line, the scholarly counterpart to the [[Wizard]]. Where Wizards focus on raw nuking, Sages are versatile battle-scholars who bend the elements, break enemy spells and empower the people fighting beside them. On Vortex Legends the Sage is built around '''two playstyles''': | |||
* '''Battle Sage''': a mobile caster who keeps channelling on the move, auto-casts bolts in melee and pressures single targets with Neutral magic. | |||
* '''Arcane Scholar''': an elemental support and anti-magic specialist who endows weapons, lays elemental fields and shuts enemy casters down. | |||
The two lines are a matter of priority, not a cage: skill points can be spent freely, so hybrid builds remain fully playable. Sages advance into the [[Professor]] after rebirth. | |||

The Battle Sage never stops casting. It leans on Free Cast and Auto Spell to hold its ground in melee, and builds a Neutral damage axis of its own through Magic Crasher, backed by the steadier output of Spell Enchanting and Maximize Magic. | |||

Sage
The Sage is a second class of the Mage line, the scholarly counterpart to the Wizard. Where Wizards focus on raw nuking, Sages are versatile battle-scholars who bend the elements, break enemy spells and empower the people fighting beside them. On Vortex Legends the Sage is built around two playstyles:
- Battle Sage: a mobile caster who keeps channelling on the move, auto-casts bolts in melee and pressures single targets with Neutral magic.
- Arcane Scholar: an elemental support and anti-magic specialist who endows weapons, lays elemental fields and shuts enemy casters down.
The two lines are a matter of priority, not a cage: skill points can be spent freely, so hybrid builds remain fully playable. Sages advance into the Professor after rebirth.
Specialization branches
Battle Sage
The Battle Sage never stops casting. It leans on Free Cast and Auto Spell to hold its ground in melee, and builds a Neutral damage axis of its own through Magic Crasher, backed by the steadier output of Spell Enchanting and Maximize Magic.
Auto Spell
| Job | Sage |
|---|---|
| Type | Active |
| Target | Self |
| Max level | 5 |
| SP cost | 35 |
| Cast time | 3 s |
| Duration | 2 / 4 / 6 / 8 / 10 min |
Picks one of the Sage's learned bolt spells to auto-fire on melee attacks at a discount, and grants a boost to Agility. The heart of the melee-caster "hybrid" build.
→ Auto Spell
Free Cast
| Job | Sage |
|---|---|
| Type | Passive |
| Max level | 5 |
A passive that frees the Sage from standing still to channel, letting them walk while casting. Higher mastery keeps them moving faster mid-cast, a defining piece of Sage mobility.
→ Free Cast
Cast Cancel
| Job | Sage |
|---|---|
| Type | Active |
| Target | Self |
| Max level | 1 |
| SP cost | 2 |
Instantly aborts the Sage's own spell mid-cast, refunding part of the spent SP. A quick way to bail out of a commitment when a fight turns.
→ Cast Cancel

|---|---|
| Type | Offensive (Magic) |

A reworked single-target Neutral magic nuke that scales with the Sage's magic power and lands almost instantly, giving the class a snappy, dependable strike.
