Official Pawn Sharing Club #3

I'm looking for a sorcerer or mage around Lv. 20 - 40. I looked through the list but most of the pawns are way above my Arisen and I don't want to get a penalty on EXP.

This is just my $0.02, but IMHO low level players should not feel discouraged to rent high level pawns because of the exp penalty. You will more than make up for the loss by being able to progress through the game faster and kill stronger enemies that give even greater exp. So maybe you're only getting 80% of the normal exp amount with them but you will also be getting to the later parts of the game more quickly and killing enemies that drop more experience. I suspect that if your goal is to level as fast as possible, you should definitely get the strongest pawns you can hire to get you to offline Ur Dragon ASAP. Of course, if you value the challenge and don't want the game to be too easy that is a much more valid reason and you should get weaker pawns and have fun with the game.

And what should i look for in a good sorcerer? I usually hire 1 sorcerer and 1 mage from the rift for healing and attack but some have the strange habit of running up to the enemy and THEN they start to cast their magic. Great against one bigger foe but when fighting against a group they tend to get beat up. Anyone a good sorcerer or mage?

You generally want them to have scather inclination and not mitigator because their big spells will kill all the smaller enemies anyway, even if they target just the strongest enemy. You also want either challenger or utilitarian to go with it, depending on whether you prefer them to buff more or snipe ranged enemies more. For spells IMHO you want relatively fast spells with all elements covered. I generally avoid pawns who only have the big nuke spells. They tend to cancel spells constantly and wind up not doing anything. I've been told that my Sorc/Mage Melusine does not do that "run up and cast" thing very much. Send me a FR (PSN: ukyo_rulz) if you want to hire her. Note that she is level 200 though.

Yea see, that's the thing, I'm in post game now, but I also never knew this

You can get like 6-8 tufts of hair from the Ogre nest in the middle of the ancient quarry. I pick them up every time I pass that way specifically for that notice board quest.
