Psychics are the fastest spell-casters, apart from Clerics. They make a good ally in your squad if used properly. Psychics also use buff and self-buff spells that have an extremely fast casting rate and use a very small amount of MP at the beginning. All the psychic's skill elements are earth and water, bar Soulburn, which is unique in PWI due to it's lack of element or orientation (it is neither physical or magical and can damage even with damage immunity). Psychics have two skill paths, Soul Force and Chain of Souls, both have different varieties of abilities. As a member of the tideborn, psychics do the duty of stun, hex, and paralyze. Using these unique techniques they enter the battlefield, slaying enemies one by one.

Psychic Armor[edit]
Psychics generally use Arcane armor, the same as other spell-user classes. Though Heavy armor and Light armor psychics exist, they are rare and require more money to keep competitive. Additionally, rank armor for psychics is Arcane and is unchangeable.
Psychic in PvP[edit]
Depending on the abilities they chose, they can be really powerful in PvP. Psychics not only have a fast casting rate, but can use White Voodoo for defense and Bubble of Life for healing, and vit builds can have plenty of HP. Their "soul" skills give them some nice defensive buffs as well. That helps them defeat enemies quickly and survive well when prepared. In early levels lack of AoEs can be a problem, but this isn't usually an issue for high level psychics. While they can kill very easily in PvP when prepared, they don't have high defense when using Black Voodoo, and HP can be very low for full mag builds, so they can die quite easily to physical classes.

Psychics are good to have in a squad like wizards, because of fast casting and can do good damage, even standing out doesn't even matter if you use psychics properly.
