Switch instantly between a wide variety of jobs, like the Fighter, who unleashes quick sword techniques, the Shadow Walker, who deals lethal blows with twin swords, or the “Mage,” who specializes in magic attacks, to be victorious. Take on strong enemies by targeting their weak points and then eliminate them with a powerful Double Break attack.
