All Magic Gladiator / Duel Master Skills in MU Online
Complete guide to Magic Gladiator and Duel Master skills in MU Online S6: full list, requirements, damage formulas, builds, and wing progression.
What is the Magic Gladiator?
The Magic Gladiator (MG) is one of the most versatile classes in MU Online Season 6, blending the physical combat of the Dark Knight with the spellcasting of the Dark Wizard into a single character. It requires no quests to be created — the MG is unlocked when any character on the account reaches level 220, and can then be created directly on the Character Selection screen.
Upon reaching level 400, the MG evolves into the Duel Master, unlocking the Master Skill Tree.

Damage Formulas
The MG uses different damage calculations depending on skill type:
Physical Damage
Damage = (STR / 7) + (AGI / 4) + Weapon Damage + Option Bonuses
Magical Damage
Damage = (ENE / 9) + Skill Base Damage + Set Option Bonuses
Soul Barrier — Absorption Formula
Absorption (%) = (ENE / 10) + (VIT / 40) [cap ~50% in S6]
Duration = (ENE / 10) + 2 seconds
Build Comparison: Physical vs. Magic vs. Hybrid
| Criteria | Physical Build (STR) | Magic Build (ENE) | Hybrid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary Stat | STR + AGI | ENE + VIT | STR + ENE balanced |
| Ideal Weapon | Excellent Sword/Lance | Sword/Staff with ENE options | Dual-option sword |
| Primary Skill | Death Slash / Combo | Gigantic Storm / El. Spark | Flame Strike + Death Slash |
| Soul Barrier Strength | Weak (low ENE) | Strong | Moderate |
| PvE Farming | Excellent at melee range | Good with magical AoE | Versatile |
| PvP (Castle Siege) | High physical burst | Range control + damage | Unpredictable |
| Best Wing (L3) | Wing of Storm | Wing of Storm | Wing of Storm |
Progression to Duel Master
The MG evolves into the Duel Master automatically upon reaching the required level (typically 400 on the S6 official server; may vary on custom servers).
Magic Gladiator (level 1–399)

Magic Gladiator Wing Progression
The MG has a unique wing progression that differs from all other classes:
| Level | Item | How to Obtain |
|---|---|---|
| L1 | Not available | MG cannot equip Wing L1 |
| L2 | Cape of Fighter | Chaos Goblin combination with specific materials |
| L3 | Wing of Storm | Cape of Fighter + 3x Loch's Feather + Jewel of Creation |
To craft Wing of Storm (L3):
Cape of Fighter (L2) at +5 or higher
+ 3x Loch's Feather (exclusive drop from Balgass when Crywolf FAILS)
+ Jewel of Creation (drops from Kundun, Nightmare, or Selupan)
→ Combine in Chaos Goblin = Wing of Storm
Gameplay Tips for MG in S6
- Teleport is essential in PvP — use it to escape surroundings and reposition. The MG is one of the few physical classes with a native teleport.
- Activate Soul Barrier before entering Castle Siege — always buff before mass combat.
- Death Slash in Blood Castle and Devil Square — exceptional for clearing mobs rapidly during events.
- Combo into Death Slash is the standard physical DPS rotation in single-target PvP.
- Gigantic Storm for ranged pressure when opponents attempt to flee in PvP.
- Cape of Fighter provides defense and damage bonuses superior to most L2 wings at the same acquisition difficulty.
