Rangers are unique in the fact that they are good in combat and have the ability to cast spells. Rangers are hybrids that are 3/4 Warrior and 1/4 Druid. Rangers recieve some of the same spells that Druids get but at later levels. Rangers first receive the ability to cast spells at the 9th season. When a young Ranger reaches the 9th season, he should go to their guild and train 1 point into each of the 5 magic areas : abjure, alter, conjure, divinate and evoke. If you do not train in these magic areas, your skills will never increase. The ability to channel, which affects how quickly you cast spells, is automatically given upon reaching the 9th season, so there is no need to train in that skill. At level 12 rangers get the ability to meditate, which allows them to regain mana much quickly. The amount of mana that you have is determined by how much wisdom you have. The higher your wisdom, they more mana you have. Keep in mind that because you have barely recieved your magic abilities, your mana will be very low, comparable to a druid of the first level. Rangers, for the most part, receive their spells comparable to the same rank Druids received their spells. In example a Ranger receives his first rank spells at level 9 and will get some of the same spells a Druid received at his first rank at level 1. In all, Rangers receive 6 ranks of spells starting at level 9 and contiuing until level 49.
