Assessment

The Nekomancer is a hybrid class with two distinct playstyles depending on whether or not  Cat's MeowGain Cat's MeowUsing MP to gain buffs
. Sharp boost to allies' stats (Consumes 3 MPMagic power is amplified
every turn / Hit to caster's stats for 3 turns when Cat's Meow ends on recast or when MPMagic power is amplified
is 0). is active. When the skill is active, the class becomes a team buffer, offering a wide set of virtually undispellable stats to the entire party. When the skill is inactive, the class becomes a selfish attacker, with the ability to hit all enemies with bonus damage and dishes out strong charge attacks. Regardless of the playstyle, however, the Nekomancer is a fairly micro-intensive unit as it relies on proper management of the charge bar and its unique status, the MPMagic power is amplified
.

More mundanely, the Nekomancer can also be seen as direct upgrade of the Mystic, and can be used similar to the class for farming content on auto, such as Angel Halo.
