When to Martial Artist Class Change
Learn All the Spells from the Gadabout and Sage Classes
To change to the best Martial Artist class, it is recommended you start off as a Gadabout then become a Sage. Learn all of the possible spells from these two classes before changing to a Martial Artist. With this method, you have a Martial Artist that not only will deal high critical attacks, but can also cast spells!

Martial Artist Explained
Increased Strength and Speed
Once you level up your Martial Artist, it can attack quicker and stronger than any of the classes in your party. It's an excellent damage-dealing class that you would want for your battles!
Best Party: Best Starting Party Members
Increased Critical Hit Rate
The Martial Artist has an inherent high critical hit rate, which makes it easy to deal high damage attacks. However, keep in mind that Martial Artists are not that strong during the early stages, so only use it when you have enough in-game experience.
When Choosing the Martial Artist Class, Select Female
The Martial Artist class works best on the Female gender. Aside from the Vamp personality that's exclusive to females, the equipment. Dress of Light, is also a female-only equipment. This can enhance the Martial Artist's defense greatly.
