Their racial ability, 'Magic Attack', allows them to charge a potent magical blast, making them formidable ranged attackers. Yukes are essential for any party, providing powerful elemental damage, healing, and crucial status effects.

Yukes primarily use staves, which are two-handed. They wear light robes for armor, which offer minimal physical defense but often boost magic stats. Their low HP and Defense mean they need to stay out of harm's way, relying on their powerful magic to contribute. In multiplayer, a Yuke is often the backbone of the party, providing essential magical support and damage.
