Bishop
Characters: Sharon, Tatiana, Primm
Valor Skill: Heal - Restore 50% HP to allies in range.
Bishops are premier healing units, offering a versatile range of restorative abilities. They can heal allies, purge ailments, and even resurrect fallen comrades. While lacking in raw offensive power, their unparalleled ability to keep the party alive makes them a highly recommended addition to almost any lineup.

Druid
Characters: Selvie
Valor Skill: Clairvoyance - Improve visibility in an area, detecting hidden enemies.
Druids specialize in debilitating enemies, reducing their effectiveness in nearly every aspect. They can lower offensive and defensive power, drain enemy PP, and prevent critical hits. Druids are excellent classes, and having multiple in a unit allows for specialization in various forms of enemy debuffing.

- Offensive Curse (Level 10): 1 AP. Inflicts -50% Physical and Magical Attack on a row of enemies.

Elven Archer
Characters: Lhinalagos, Ridiel, Galadmir
Valor Skill: Merciful Rain - Conjure rain that restores 10% HP to all allies every second within range.
Elven Archers excel at debuff removal, with passive skills designed to counter debilitating effects. They also offer strong support with abilities like Mystic Conferral and Icicle Arrow, which can freeze back-row enemies. Selfless Heal, when paired with a First Aid Kit, can provide a guaranteed full party heal at the end of combat, making them a viable alternative to Bishops in some team compositions.

- Pure Field (Level 25): 1 PP. Negates a single debuff for all allies. (LIMITED use).
Featherbow
Characters: Raenys
Valor Skill: Delay - Increase the wait time of an enemy unit by 5 seconds.
Featherbows are primarily debilitation specialists rather than damage dealers. Skills like Saint’s Shot and Photon Arrow can weaken enemy formations, while Shining Light is particularly effective, inflicting blind on a target and their row before they attack, nullifying incoming damage. Their Valor skill can also paralyze enemy units by adding wait time, even to those with no current wait time.
Skills:
- Saint’s Shot: Inflicts debuffs on enemies.
- Photon Arrow: Inflicts debuffs on enemies.
- Shining Light: Triggers before a target attacks, inflicting blind on them and their row, nullifying the attack and potentially stopping subsequent attacks.
