Drain Attack

Benediction

Better Than Ever

Perhaps one of the best skills from the White Mage's support abilities. It gives squishy characters a way to become tough and can be a game changer during the mid-stages of the game.

Drain Attack

Who doesn't like being able to heal while damaging enemies? This is a great ability to learn from the White Mage that can be carried over to attacker classes.

Benediction

Consumes HP to increase Healing Power. By Braving and using this together with a curative spell, it can greatly amp your heal and restore the HP you spend to use it.
