- Isn't this class an additional subclass of the Magician "branch?" Notice how the equips are all labeled "Magician Only" like any other "branch" of equips. Adding to the evidence the fact that the class uses INT/LUK AP stats, I believe this class will be a fourth subclass of the Magician branch.
- If everything I theorized above is true, then it's been a good game F/Ps and I/Ls, because if Nexon finally came around to making a "BattleMage" class that is the Magician representative on the single-target DPS field, ArchMages honestly have nothing left to offer. Of course, until mobbing becomes an integral part of some aspect of the game other than training.
All of the equipment is labeled "Magician Only" because they're of class type "2" in the files, signifying a magician. Those equips being of class type 2 means that any magician can equip them and does not necessarily make them part of the Explorer Magician class or subclasses in the same way that Dawn Warrior or Aran have nothing to do with Heroes or Paladins.
Class type in the files applies to all mages of any superclass (Explorer, Cygnus). Your theory doesn't hold.
If I am correct, the new folder in Skill.wz will be 2200 or 3200. If you are correct, the new folder will be 240. We'll see in due time.
One more thing. The swords that the other guy was talking about are 1H swords as classified by the ID numbers for the strings in the data. This means that this magician can wield both a sword and shield, assuming, of course, that the addition of these strings are in any way related to the new magician class.
