On top of all that has already been said, they also have a new combo system created just for them.

=== '''Pros:''' ===
* Due to having fewer active buffs than the other jobs, getting dispelled does not affect them as much.
* Can "Freeze" boss monsters.
* Due to having an HP draining buff in the second job, fewer HP potions are needed.
* Can KB enemies easier due to a third job buff which reduces the amount of damage required to KB.
* Less crowded training spots due to being good at small maps while most jobs are better in larger maps.
=== '''Cons:''' ===
* Due to how much of a part combos take up, enemies with stunning or seducing attacks are difficult.
** Examples: Papulatus, Zakum.
* To keep their combo counters up high they must train on slightly higher leveled monsters.
* One of the best party buffs yet, Aegis Shield, requires a 300 combo counter to activate.
* Repetitive. They really only have two main attacking skills that don't require some combo counter amount to use.
