Braver

The Braver is a subclass to the Warrior class that uses Blade Magic skills. It is a unique subclass for Ric and is unlocked through the main story at the end of Chapter 2.

Overview
The Braver uses magical skills to deal damage. They have good coverage of fire, ice and lightning elements and also light and dark skills. They have plenty of skills that deal with magic, both offensive and defensive. Thus, they are useful as a very offensive battler to counter magical enemies, something that other Warrior subclasses cannot do. Many of their skills rely on both ATK and MAT to calculate damage. As Bravers use mostly MP, they have an extra resource to use and can stay attacking enemies much longer. For example, they can switch back to regular Warrior skills that use TP when their MP runs out, while a supporting party member tops them back up.

Their support skills include magical defense skills and MP-restoring skills. They are proficient at combating enemies that uses elemental attacks.

Stat Growth
Bravers have massive MAT growth and high MP growth. Coupled with Ric's innate high MAT growth, it further helps him deal high amounts of magical damage.

Skills
Many of the Braver's skills use MP, so managing MP resources is important. This can be a little confusing for players who are used to dealing with only TP (and HP) for other Warrior subclasses.
