With Runes of Magic’s unique ability to dual class and take on properties of two different character types, the role of the secondary class does many things.

Characters are able to use their general and their class specific skills as their primary, and also able to use their secondary classes general skills. Those that choose Mage for their primary are able to use these class specific skills plus will be wearing cloth armor and have specialized magical abilities. These are the descriptions of the Runes of Magic, or RoM, mage primary character’s skills.
