Elemental Master is the 4th class of the Sage/Professor/Sorcerer line-up. It's a pretty versatile class that could be played as DPS, tank, or support whichever your preference is or whenever the situations calls for it, but as a DPS class it is arguably the strongest magical class right now in the current patch. | '''Elemental Master''' (abbrev. as EM) is the 4th class of the Sage/Professor/Sorcerer line-up.

Unlike our cousins the Arch Mages, the Elemental Master class also got a lot of utility skills (i.e. Land Protector, Dispel, Blinding Mist, Insignias, etc.) in its arsenal which makes it possible for the class to leave behind defensive gears and still run full DPS while surviving most of the monsters' and bosses' skills and attacks. That being said, the class could also be played as either a full tank or support class and excel in those roles when built in that manner. | Unlike our cousins the Arch Mages, the Elemental Master class also got a lot of utility skills (i.e. Land Protector, Dispel, Blinding Mist, Insignias, etc.) in its arsenal which makes it possible for the class to leave behind defensive gears and still run full DPS while surviving most of the monsters' and bosses' skills and attacks.

** 4 of their skills, if you'll count Psychic Wave, are lingering and counts as DoT (Damage over Time) skills. This will prove to be useful and efficient when you're farming for zeny or loots, as it is as simple as placing any of your DoT skills on the ground and then teleport away. Yes even when you're offscreen you'll still be killing the monsters, and yes you'll still get their drops (thanks to the '''<u>@autoloot</u>''' feature). The only scenario I could think of where this won't be applicable is when you're finishing a Kill Count quest which in that case you'll need to be onscreen to get the count. | |||
