Magic & grimoires

Unlocking your first grimoire

The community Magics reference lists level 15 as the requirement to begin the magic quest at Wisdom Peak. Follow the quest there to obtain a grimoire; the magic element is rolled from the obtainable pool above.

A recent unlock guide explicitly corrects an initial level-10 assumption to level 15 at 2:28, matching the written reference. Use the current quest log if a later update changes the gate.

Rerolling your magic

The community FAQ describes three routes: a paid magic reroll, spending earned Essence on a grimoire reroll in the shop, or wiping a character after reaching level 15 and choosing whether to retain the grimoire.

A wipe affects character progression. Read the confirmation screen carefully and check the current requirements and price before committing. This page does not provide a verified current shop price.

The FAQ lists Bestiary progress, profession progress, Gladiator victories, and boss battles as Essence sources. The release-day livestream also opens the Bestiary and Professions rewards and discusses Locked Essence at 1:55:40. Check reward eligibility and the current shop item before spending; no permanent price or farming rate is established here.

Learning abilities and developing a grimoire

Obtaining a magic, learning its active abilities and purchasing its passives are separate steps. Recent beginner footage places the Grimoire Echo and Meditation interfaces in the Inner Realm. Inspect mastery and purchase requirements there rather than expecting a new spell simply because you rolled a grimoire.

Later progression also separates grimoire augment slots from grimoire evolution. The former walkthrough involves a raid puzzle and Poneglyph markers; the latter follows Inner Connection and an Inner Spirit challenge. Neither should be described as another name for a cosmetic reroll.

Cosmetic variants

The listed variants change a magic’s appearance. The community reference describes them as cosmetic, with no gameplay advantage. A magic reroll and a cosmetic variant reroll serve different purposes; check the option selected in the Ability menu.

What about Spatial magic?

The reference mentions Spatial in configuration data with a 0% obtainment weight. It is excluded from the seven obtainable magic types here. A configuration entry is not evidence that players can roll it.

Rarity and strength

Time has the lowest listed roll chance, but that does not demonstrate that it is best for every fight. A useful comparison also needs the game version, target, equipment, mastery, and whether the test concerns PvE or PvP. Read our magic comparison notes before making a reroll decision.
