Assessment
This section contains subjective remarks about this class. Relevancy of information and recommended weapons can quickly change over time. Use substantial discretion before heavily investing resources. |
Overview
Nekomancer is one of a few classes that possesses a unique resource that is managed and used through its class skills. Nekomancer and its predecessor Mystic are able to hit all foes on normal attacks so they are often used to farm battles with multiple foes such as Angel Halo, but outside of these situations, the class can be somewhat clunky to use before Ultimate Mastery. With it however, the class provides a mixture of offensive and defensive buffs, greatly benefiting Full Auto and Burst setups.
