Warrior Tips & How to Use

Stranger of Paradise - Warrior Usable Weapons.jpg
The Warrior has the highest number of usable weapons in the Advanced Jobs, and the second highest number of usable weapons overall! This allows the Warrior access to a wide pool of abilities that are otherwise locked away for most advanced jobs.

Choose a Familiar Weapon

Warrior - Katana.gif
Go with a weapon you are already familiar with using. You can opt for slow but heavy hitting attacks with the Axe and Greatsword; or the rapidfire attacks of the Knuckles and the Daggers; or the more balanced Sword, Katana, and Lance. The Warrior will still provide buffs to the weapon of your choice.
