Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake - Mage Job Guide: Best Personality and Build

Mage Job Guide for Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake (DQ3 Remake)

Mage Job Overview

Spell Specialist

Mages are masters of a wide range of spells. They can use not only offensive spells but also support spells. It’s important to switch between offensive and support spells to cater to what your party needs.

Low on Physical Strength

Mages have balanced growth in all stats except for “Strength,” so physical attacks won’t be their strong suit.

Powerful offensive spells

Mages learn the core offensive spells of the Dragon Quest series: Frizz, Crack, Sizz, and Bang. Their multi-target and all-targeting spells enable them to end battles quickly, an ability that warriors and martial artists lack.

Excellent support spells

Mages learn “Buff” and “Kabuff” to raise allies’ defenses and “Oomph” to boost attack power. In addition to dealing damage, they can increase the party’s stats, ensuring a more favorable battle outcome.

Best Personality for Mage Job

Vamp (Female Only)

This personality is ideal for mages, who benefit from all stats growth other than strength. It provides a high bonus in agility and intelligence, which are essential for mages. If choosing a female mage, “Vamp” is a safe choice.

Stat Modifiers

This rare personality has no negative modifiers, with significant bonuses to agility and intelligence, which are beneficial for mages.

Genius

This personality is recommended for those seeking to maximize MP for spellcasting jobs. It offers vast MP reserves, enabling mages to cast spells repeatedly. Additionally, high agility ensures they can cast spells or buff allies before their turn, granting a significant advantage in battle.

Stat Modifiers

This personality offers the highest intelligence boost and a decent agility bonus. Its negative vitality modifier makes them very fragile, so placing them in the back of the party is highly recommended.
