Sage advice
I have my Priest and Mage at around level 28. Should I keep levelling them to unlock more spells? I got the required book, which one should I make into a Sage?

sage will learn all the mage and priest spells either way, but i would say turning the mage into sage is the better choice, that way you have more options for healing if needed and alsol the mage gets more robust with hp then before

Then Mage to Sage it is. Thanks.

I turned my priest because I already have plenty of healing and wanted more damaging spells., but either is a fine choice.

Bit late, but for anyone reading this.

I recommend leveling thief to 25 to unlock Hypnowhip

Then gadabout to 20 for easy sage, or use the words of wisdom.

Then Sage, Sage can equip Somatic Staff, which gives them a huge physical boost, and hypnowhip does great damage to monster groups.

Pretty much puts the game on easy mode for grinding, also with theif you get assassin's stab, does 1 damage to a target but high chance to instantly kill. Great for metal slime farming.

At 40, you can switch the sage back to Thief or Martial Artist for end game. I prefer Thief so I can farm seeds.

I have a thief at level 18. I'll consider levelling her.

Make the mage into a sage so she can learn healing spells. That will be more important for late game bosses and post game than giving your priest access to mage spells via sage.

Will do. Thanks.

One of the best things about a Sage is they gain all the spells of a Mage and a Priest. Lots of the time I will either swap my 3rd into a sage, and then shift my Mage to Priest or start it learning other jobs and shift my Priest to a Martial Artist. Priest to Martial Artist gives the ability to act very quickly and use heals early in the turn order.

While I personally favor Priest to Sage over Mage to Sage, one big advantage to keeping Priest is that you get certain important Priest spells earlier. Insulatle is the big one for me (I hope they still give it in this game). At the levels you're at, exiting Mage is much better than exiting Priest. Mage has many defensible exit points. Priest not really.

Just call me a heathen, I just swapped level 26 Martial Artist to my Sage, my Mage is going to explore Monster Master, and my Priest will be exploring some of the other classes for unlocking abilities. This will give all 4 of my characters at least some healing ability
