DEX-type swordsman usually delivers skills that can flinch or cancel its opponent's attack. INT-type swordsman has various skills which can bolster his and his party members' defense. POW-type swordsman are the "killers" in the party because of his awesome attack power. Usually, swordsmen are the ones who always "lures" enemies for their party due to their high defense compared to the other classes.
Brawler

are masters of many kinds of martial arts. DEX-type brawlers usually uses his fists and hands to attack his enemies. INT-type brawlers uses his body parts instead of the hands

ies with its high kicks. Brawlers are like swordsmen, they are essential for their party to survive.

gical skills like healing chants and buffs. POW-type shamans uses "spears" instead of wand and gives her opponents some piercing and heavy attack damage.
