Greetings Mabinogians!

A Fantasy Life means different things to different people. When you first joined Mabinogi, was it to play music? Or did you join it to be a great and fearsome warrior? This week, we're taking a moment to celebrate the vast variety of players in Mabinogi. Take a moment to celebrate your individuality and learn more about other players in this installment of the Erinn Weekly. Who knows? You may even find a whole new way to enjoy Mabinogi!

Question of the Week

It's back to school time! In our world, school is important for learning many valuable life skills. Tir Chonail's school, however, is where Lassar teaches magic! What's your favorite magic spell and why?


Magic has many different uses in Erinn. Some people use it to heal, while others use it to fight and defend the world that they love. Judging by the over seven hundred answers we received, it's obvious that our players and their views are even more varied! The response was far greater than we expected and showed one thing in particular: No two Mabinogians are alike!

"I don't want realism. I want magic!" ~ Blanche DuBois, A Streetcar Named Desire

Let’s see what some of your fellow Mabinogians had to say:

"Healing magic because it's nice to help out friends and other random people. It's always needed and never gets annoying to receive!" ~Savvi F.

"Ice Bolt is my favorite because it was my first magic spell, the easiest to train, and my friends helped me to get it. For these reasons, I choose Ice Bolt."~ Nicholas M.
 
"Thunder is one of the most versatile spells in the game. It's a powerful spell that hits multiple targets. At higher ranks, it stalls your opponent so that you can charge another Thunder. On top of that, it ignores Protection, so your Crit Rate will always be left undisturbed. It deals more damage than Ice Spear and takes less time to charge than Fireball. What's not to love?"~ Darryl Lee

Community Spotlight

What's your favorite title and why?

Titles are a great way to show off your progress in Mabinogi. Some are simple to attain, while others take weeks. At the end of the day, though, each Title reflects a unique type of person. So which title is your favorite?
