Melia is without a doubt, one of the best Attackers in the game, and should be added to any party that has trouble dealing damage. Not only are her attacks very powerful, but many inflict powerful debuffs, such as Bind.
Melia's strength relies on her constantly summoning and discharging Elements. While this increases her attack power to exceptionally high levels, this process requires time to be effective. As such, Melia is better suited to longer, more difficult battles.
After recruiting Melia, they and their class will be capped at Rank 10. To break the class limit and rank them up to Rank 20, you must first complete their Ascension Quest: From Atop Her Throne.
