General Description: Ah, this takes us back to FFIV. The Dark Knight is the essence of a kamikaze class: for the cost of sacrificing one’s HP, they can deal out massive damage; a number of the best skills in the game are in the Dark Knight’s repertoire, so long as you have the HP to compensate. You can also add in the fact that it has the Darkness skill automatically; this hits everyone and ignores their Defense, making it one of the most easily abused skills in the whole game, especially because it is neither physical nor magical. You will find yourself using it a lot for boss and hard battles. By the time you get this, you can replace your Warrior immediately, for this job is far superior. This is furthered by the Ragnarok in Chapter 5, which, when equipped, removes the HP cost of the Dark Knight’s abilities. Come, join the dark side.
