* One of the most useful skills you'll learn as a Mage. Put 10 skill points on this one as this will help you replenish your SP passively when standing in one spot as you do DPS, and also improves the potency of SP regenerating potions.

* Place 10 skill points on this one and max it out. A good skill to defend yourself and your party members against normal melee attacks. When supporting, you can just spam this underneath your party's tank. Be sure to bring a lot of Blue Gemstones not only for spamming Safety Wall but for your subsequent skills in the Sage branch.

* For early leveling, you can max it out then just take away some skill points afterwards as it will be only used for that purpose. Reset your skill points by talking to the '''Build Manager NPC Lotus''' {{#navi:main_office|122|169}} when you're done leveling with this skill, and put them on other important skills. It'll only cost 5,000 zeny to reset skill trees, so don't be afraid if you allocated points on a leveling skill such as Fire Ball.

* Just like Fire Ball, it is also needed for the early leveling phase. You can also do the old but still useful tactic vertical Fire Wall like in this [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LteV05kLPg video].

* Always an available skill to have as a Mage, but you may need to talk to the '''Platinum Skill NPC''' {{#navi:main_office|84|59}} first to unlock this one. The most useful skill to have in the Mage tree in my opinion as this will decrease the incoming damage you receive be it physical or magical so long as you have enough SP. The damage reduction scales with your current SP so make sure to keep your SP healthy and full at all times.
