Shaman: Difference between revisions

The '''Shaman''' (Japanese: {{hover|シャーマン|Shāman}} ''Shaman'') is a [[Magic (element)|magical]] [[class]] which was introduced in {{FE6}}. They appear as an offensive magical class available to any gender which only wields [[Dark (magic)|dark magic]]. These Shamans are a precursor to the modern [[Dark Mage]] class and, like Dark Mages, are a stark contrast to the nimble [[Mage]]s: they have fearsome magical offense further enhanced by the raw power of dark tomes, but in exchange they have low base [[speed]] and are weighed down even more by their heavy tomes. Their defenses are also slightly better than those of ordinary Mages, but are still mediocre which, combined with how easy it is to double-attack Shamans, leaves them better equipped to attack at range from behind the front lines. Shamans promote to the [[Druid]] class, and in {{title|The Sacred Stones}}, they also have the option to promote to [[Summoner]] instead.
