Role

Support Classes

Support is the party-facing role — Bard, Magistrate and Priest all trade personal damage output for keeping allies alive and buffed. Bard's Battle Song and Sonic Wave hit the whole group, Magistrate's Shield Aura and Binding Verdict absorb incoming hits, and Priest's Healing Zone and Holy Grounds restore health over an area rather than to a single target. All three are ranged Magic classes, which matters in practice: a support class needs to stay out of melee range to keep its cooldowns up for whoever is actually tanking the hit.
