Job Description

Knights are one of the most powerful classes in the game. They have high HP and AT, and can equip heavy armour. They can also equip robes and have decent MP and MA for a front-line unit, making magic an excellent early secondary ability set for the Knight. Later in the game Knight Swords, the most powerful weapons in the game, become available, and knights are the only standard class that can use them.

Job Ability Description

Battle Skill, the knight's ability set, is quite valuable. It is best to have it as a secondary ability for a class that has a greater range, like the archer or chemist. Weapon Break is the best, and Speed Break can prove very useful as well when trying to steal valuable items; when used en masse it renders even the biggest bosses virtually hapless. Weapon Guard is lackluster, but Equip Armour is definitely worth picking up.
