Facing formidable foes
When fighting enemies who are stronger than you, simply attacking and healing alone won't cut it. This is when support skills really come in handy.
Strategy example
- If the enemy is mainly using physical attacks, lower their accuracy and agility.
- If the enemy is mainly using magic, lower their MP or seal their ability to use magic.
- If the enemy uses skills that buff their attack and defense power, disable the buff with WeaponBreak or ArmorBreak.
Skill acquisition or stat upgrades?
You're able to change jobs once you hit level 20 and up, but if you change jobs right away, your stats will remain low for a long time. Eventually, you'll find it very difficult to fight in quest locations with stronger enemies.
If you've learn some powerful skills early on, don't feel pressured to change jobs right away. If you change jobs after reaching a higher level, you can develop a high-stats character.
