Cyclic Warrior Tips & How to Use

Max Out Your MP

The Cyclic Warrior has the offensive powers of Berserker and the magic capabilities of the Black Mage; however, its true potential can only be unlocked when you max out your MP. With that in mind, you want to pair the Cyclic Warrior with a job that is good at refilling MP.

Soul Burst, Not Kill

You don't want to kill your enemies from the get-go. You'll still kill them in the end, but it is highly recommended to Soul Burst enemies as much as possible to fill up your max MP to use the Cyclic Warrior's abilities.
