This is a solo character single class challenge run of Final Fantasy. Only using the "Mystic Knight"-class to complete the entirety of the game, as a solo character.

Mystic Knights are what I think of when I hear the term "Battle Mage". They infuse their weapons with elemental- or status-effects and then start whacking their foes with impressive power. If there is one weakness to this class, it is, that the Mystic Knight requires one turn to set up their elemental attacks, and also lose these enchants whenever they switch weapons or even shields in combat. However, aside from that, a class that has access to elemental attacks and on top of that, status effects, is one of the most powerful ones in FF5.

Final Fantasy 5 main strength as a game is the ability to freely switch your characters between a variety of different classes at any time you please. Normally this used to mix and match abilties and enhance the characters strengths through using interesting synergies.

However, Final Fantasy 5 is also a fairly unique game in the sense, that it allows for many varied strategies to get through the various bossfights in the game. Many classes have many tools available. Some more, others less. Some classes are just outright powerful by themselves, others... Not so much. -- Watch live at https://www.twitch.tv/yagamoth
