In this stage of gear progression, you are in the beginning stages of gearing. With the gears you have, they are good enough to get you through as you start to do the Episodic Quests starting from Episode 17.2. To start Episode 17.2, you first need to clear Episode 17.1, and if you don't care for the lore of the game you can skip 17.1 and buy its skip ticket. You can purchase {{#item:1000285}}from '''NPC''' '''Temporal Tina''' {{#navi:main_office|94|59}} in the Main Office ('''@go main''') for 2,000,000 zeny. | In this stage of gear progression, you are in the beginning stages of gearing.

With the Advanced Paradise Eden gears you obtained during the leveling phase, you can still use them to farm {{#item:25669}}and {{#item:25723}} from mobs in '''Rudus Flr. 2''' {{#navi:sp_rudus2|185|258}}. If you don't like farming for them, you also have the option to buy them from vendors since they aren't too costly to begin with anyway. After getting the required materials to buy your Grace set, you can use {{#item:100130}}to upgrade them to +9. Afterwards, you can start doing the [[Thanatos_Tower|Thanatos Tower]] quest so you can start farming for zeny in Flr. 12 to get you ready for the next upgrade in your gears. For more information regarding areas where you can farm zeny, you can check [[Choi%27s_Prerenewbie_Guide_to_Renewal#Zeny_Farming|Choi's Prerenewal Guide to Renewal (Zeny Farming)]]. | With the Advanced Paradise Eden gears you obtained during the leveling phase, you can still use them to farm {{#item:25669}}and {{#item:25723}} from mobs in '''Rudus Flr. 2''' {{#navi:sp_rudus2|185|258}}.

At this stage, you ought to purchase the {{#item:450178}}after doing Episode 18 or if you are impatient you may use the {{#item:1000288}} even if you haven't cleared the questline once. By finishing the Episode 18 quests, you are given a generous amount of {{#item: 1000405}}for you to get one. To farm more of these fragments, you can go to [[Oz_Labyrinth#Floor_2|Oz Dungeon Flr. 2]] so you can determinedly enchant your Robe with {{#item:310532}}, {{#item:310515}}, and {{#item:310507}}. ACD is preferably chosen over {{#item: 310510}} since EM is a rotation-heavy class and having more '''ACD''' would help you cycle your skills fluidly (about '''60% ACD''' is needed in total if you want to optimize it). However if you value damage over comfortable rotation then you may freely choose '''Wolf Orb (Mage) Lv. 3''' instead. Additional pieces of information on how to enchant the robe are provided [[Gray Wolf Equipment#Gray Wolf Armor Enchantments|here]]. | At this stage, you ought to purchase the {{#item:450178}}after doing [[18 Direction of Prayer|Episode 18]] or if you are impatient you may use the {{#item:1000288}} even if you haven't cleared the questline once.

The boots {{#item:470023}} is obtained from Episode 17.2 and will be enchanted with {{#item:310122}}, {{#item:310126}}, and {{#item:310111}}. You would need Automatic modules for it so you can enchant the boots. For more details on [[Automatic_Equipment_(17.2)|how to obtain the boots]] and [[Automatic_Enchantment_(17.2)|how to enchant them]], check the given links. | The boots {{#item:470023}} is obtained from Episode 17.2 and will be enchanted with {{#item:310122}}, {{#item:310126}}, and {{#item:310111}}.

When module supplies for Automatic Leg are scarce, another option you have for your boots is the {{#item:470088}} from Episode 18. This boots like your Gray Wolf Robe can be determinedly enchanted at the cost of more Amethyst Fragments.

Another good improvement for your damage is the weapon {{#item:540049}}. The recommended enchants {{#item:311353}}, {{#item:311351}}, {{#item:311349}}, and {{#item:311349}}work best when enchanted on a {{#item:640033}}, but then you will lose {{#item:460018}}in your shield slot which helps you reach instant cast and fast casting is important for every magical class so I don't recommend enchanting on a Two-Hand Staff. Keep in mind you would need to clear [[19 Isgard Land of Snow Flowers|Episode 19]] first if you will be manually enchanting your book and when nobody is selling one in the market.

One other core gear you need to [[Equipment_Crafting#Pirate_Captain's_Coat,_Moan_of_Corruption,_Crown_of_Beelzebub,_Fish_Head_Hat|craft]] is the {{#item:470204}}. MoC gets stronger as you grade it, but at this stage of the progression you must grade it to at least Grade C so you get 1 second FCT redux. With more FCT redux, you can ditch {{#item:25067}} and use the {{#item:1001420}} instead for more damage improvement. | One other core gear you need to [[Equipment_Crafting#Pirate_Captain's_Coat,_Moan_of_Corruption,_Crown_of_Beelzebub,_Fish_Head_Hat|craft]] is the {{#item:470204}}.

Now, if up to this point you still haven't crafted yourself a Convertible Wing because you find it too hard to make, you may use {{#item:450267}} instead ''but'' you really have to be sure you have finished Episodes [[19 Isgard Land of Snow Flowers|19]]-[[20 The Immortal|20]] already since the | Now, if up to this point you still haven't crafted yourself a Convertible Wing because you find it too hard to make, you may use {{#item:450267}} instead ''but'' you really have to be sure you have finished Episodes [[19 Isgard Land of Snow Flowers|19]]-[[20 The Immortal|20]] already since the NPC that enchants it for you is located in '''Ice Castle''' ('''@go 53'''); if not, find a good soul who has access to enchant it for you. The muffler will be enchanted with {{#item:312073}}, {{#item:312070}}, and {{#item:312057}}. For more information regarding the enchanting process of the muffler, kindly check this [[20 The Immortal#Glacier Garments|page]]. The muffler won't perform as strong as the Convertible Wing but it is passable as a transitory garment until your next upgrade to {{#item:480233}} soon or you finally find the means and the motivation to craft the Convertible Wing. | ||
{{#item:400111}} is another piece of equipment you will need to craft. I don't recommend committing too much on this headgear as this will not be your endgame headgear but it is for other classes such as our cousins the Arch Mages. While this headgear only acts as a placeholder, it still imparts a strong increase in damage. Having on Grade D is okay to have but better if you can get Grade C. You can always resell it later don't worry. | {{#item:400111}} is another piece of equipment you will need to craft.

Mid Game is the start where you can finally farm comfortably and considerably well on popular farming maps. You should also be finished with Episode 19 or 20 by this point and you ought to get better gears now such as {{#item:460040}}. While this shield takes less priority than your other gears, it is fairly cheap to get and enchant. It only costs 100 {{#item:1001217}} to buy one. The same with the enchanting process, it is also affordable. To know more about the enchanting costs, check this [[20_The_Immortal#Glacier_Shield|page]]. | Mid Game is the start where you can finally farm comfortably and considerably well on popular farming maps.

Technically, it's not supposed to be your first exposure to Varmundt and its Biospheres since you can access it as early as you gain access to Episode 17.2 but at the current state of your gears at the time you can't farm in those areas just yet. But now that you do, you can now start upgrading your accessories to {{#item:490307}} and {{#item:490304}}. You would need to [[Varmundt's Biosphere#Varmundt Rune Equipment / Rings|reform]] two (2) copies of {{#item:490301}}first. They give good increase in damage so farm for them as soon as you are able to. For more info on their enchants, check this [[Varmundt%27s_Biosphere#Varmundt_Ring_Enchants|page]]. As stated on the table, you need not to aim for the {{#item:311943}} and {{#item:311942}} as it's purely RNG to get them so for now you can just settle for the different racial enchants and focus more on upgrading the 3rd and 4th slot enchants. Now if you're looking for an upgrade for your Convertible Magical Wing, you can start making your own {{#item:480233}} as you farm for your two Varmundt rings as well.
