Battle Skills (戦技) Reference

Here's a quick rundown of some key Battle Skills you'll see. Pay attention to what they do – some are for offense, some for defense, and some are just plain handy!

Now, let's talk about a specific Job that uses some of these skills: the Paladin. These guys are the definition of a tank – super defensive and great at protecting your squishier units. They've got solid growth in Weapon and Magic Defense, and skills like Nurture, Guard, and Cover make them invaluable for soaking up damage.

While they might not be the flashiest attackers, Paladins can wield some powerful Knight Swords. Plus, they've got two Holy-elemental attacks, Holy Cross and Saint Cross, which are pretty sweet. If you're dealing with tricky World Laws that limit damage, their Allowance skill is a lifesaver, especially for snapping units out of Confusion or Charm. And if you want to get rid of enemies for good, especially those likely to be revived, Surrender Advice is your go-to. For R-Abilities, Abandon is seriously top-tier – once it's equipped, most weapons won't even be able to touch you. Weapon Defense UP just solidifies their role as the ultimate protectors on the battlefield.
