Psychic 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. The psychic's main elements are earth and water, though other psychic skills might use other elements too. Psychics have two skill paths, Soul Force and Chain of Souls, both have different varieties of abilities. As a part of a 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

Psychics generally use Arcane armor, the same as other spell-user classes. There are other paths you can choose too, but using Arcane armor is probably the best for now.

Psychic in PvP

Depending on the abilities they chose, they can be really powerful in PVP. Psychics not only have a fast casting rate, they're also a little packed with defense and HP (Adgain, depending on your stats). That helps them defeat enemies quickly. In early levels lack of AoEs can be a problem, but this isn't usually an issue for high level psychics. They kill very easily in PvP but they don't have high defense and HP, they die very easily to physical classes, especially the Assassin.

Psychic in PvE

Psychics level up quickly because of the fast-casting skills and high damage attacks. They do not die often like wizards, but are weak against multiple attackers at lower levels. Psychics are good to have in a squad like wizards, because of fast casting and good damage, even standing out doesn't even matter if you use Psychics properly. In addition enemies are punished just for attacking you if you stack the variety of barriers with their variety of effects. You also have skills that drastically decrease healing abilities of opponents as well as the infamous soul burn technique. This skill causes an attacker to suffer damage equal to your soul level every time they attack for a period of time. As you will discover, your soul level easily passes 5000 by the time you are only level 50, meaning an opponent is usually committing instant suicide should they choose to attack while this curse is in place.

Psychic in Territory Wars

Psychics are really good in Territory Wars, due to Soul Transfer that makes them invisible. Working along with Wizards, Venomancers, Archers and Clerics, you'd make an unstoppable teams of long range attackers! The main purpose of a psychic is repressing enemy skills and options with the variety of effects you can cast on players rendering even key opponents in a battle unable to act freely. Psychics also make good use of their AoE and might deals a huge amount of damage if the AoE is leveled up and used in the right moment, this make other classes wondering if Psychics are the best at PvP, but then again, they got low Psychical defense to keep them running, so if you just happens to come across a Tanker during Territory Wars, you might as well run away from him quick.
