Due to the battle encounters players face in Eiyuden Chronicle, a party composition needs to be ready for all possible situations. The party needs a front liner to absorb damage, a dedicated physical damage dealer, and a mage with elemental damage to deal with the tougher enemies.
Some of these mage type party members outshine the others thanks to their unique advantages. These perks range from a high number of Magic stats, to dishing out physical damage when running out of magic points after a long fight. When building a team in Eiyuden Chronicle, these mages are some of the best options.

When first starting Eiyuden Chronicle, players may find themselves at a loss. Here's what they should prioritize in the early game.

6 Marin
Able To Heal With SP
- Max Magic: 451
- Max MP: 548
- Max Magic Rune Slot: 1
As a dedicated mage of the party, conserving MP is sometimes crucial, especially before boss fights.

This enables her to heal with her SP instead of MP.

5 Milana
Necromancer Capable Of Handling Multiple Runes
- Max Magic: 495
- Max MP: 667
- Max Magic Rune Slot: 3
Sometimes, mages are limited to only certain elements before a fight. Going back and forth to a runemaster in between fights is impractical, especially during a dungeon dive. However, Milana, the unique necromancer, can subvert this with her three rune slots. This makes her quite flexible in magical damage elements as needed.
Moreover, her high MP allows Milana to last quite long both in difficult fights and random encounters on the map. The flexibility and reliability of her strength as a mage makes her a perfect candidate for the party's mainstay mage.

Elf Archer Capable Who Can Be A Mage As Well

Lakian also has the privilege of having multiple magic rune slots, making him quite flexible in terms of rune choices before going into battle. As long as his weapon is sufficiently upgraded, Lakian will be able to dish out both physical and magic types of damage.
3 Falward
A Quick, Foul-Mouthed Mage
- Max Magic: 452
- Max MP: 548
- Max Magic Rune Slot: 1
It is sometimes frustrating to mages them act after everyone else in a battle due to their low speed attribute. However, Falward's high Speed stat avoids this problem. He's one of the fastest mages available relatively early in the game.
When paired with Francesca, they are able to execute a powerful Hero Combo attack, "Light and Dark Heal Combo." This will restore HP and boost the attack power of all party members for three turns, making them very powerful when put together in a party.
2 Mellore
A Magical Girl Capable Of Deadly SP Rune Lenses

The title of the best mage of Eiyuden Chronicle falls on Momo Gardenstein. This magical girl's high Magic, MP, and available magic rune slots are some of the benchmarks he passed to be the best mage in the game. His recruitment can be somewhat tricky, but he's worth it.
Momo's magical power is boosted the further a battle goes on, thanks to his Rune of Magical Font. This Rune increases his magic and magic defense by 6% depending on his remaining SP. This allows him to shine the most during boss fights, as long as he conserves his SP to make use of his Rune of Magical Font.
