Melee units usually rely on 1-2 range melee weapons for damage. Short range abilities like Southern/Grand Cross still count as melee.

Units with ranged weapons or abilities. Crossbows, Bows, Guns are ranged weapons. Wave Fist, Earth Slash, Ninjitsu, Shuriken count as physical ranged abilities.

17 PA Earth Slash Build

Really powerful unit. Has Heal and Stigma Magic to cancel a lot of status effects. Has Ranged with Either Wave Fist or Earth Slash. Really great with Casters using Defense Ring and Magic Ring.

You an add in two tons and Yell if you want. I wouldn't recommend yell due to the AI going for Yell over accumulate when he has the space.

18 PA = 287-205 Damage vs 40-70 Faith Units
16 PA = 257-184 (Absorb)
15 PA = 238-170 (Katar + Absorb)

18 PA Shuriken = 48 x 4 Damage
16 PA = 42 x 4
15 PA = 40 x 4

Definitely my favorite squire build so far. 10/10 8 SP unit.

There's a berserk mime bug where they can equip armor and their primary attack becomes an ability.

8-9 SP. The unit can always build PA so 9 SP 15 > 8 SP 16 PA.
Against Fire Absorb only has Lionheart attacks.
Very versatile in equipment. Go with PA accessory to brevent losing elemental strengthen to steal. Steal Accessory is more common than Break Armor.
Will only Accumulate if a friendly unit isn't around unhasted. Otherwise he'll use Masamune.

Asura Damage
15 PA = 168
16 PA = 182

Malroth

If I may nominate one of mine take a look at the Summon Magic Mediator on my 10 speed team for a magic damage dealer.

Shintroy

Who's the first one to make a Healing Staff, Hawk's Eye/Break Squire? I want to add it to the thread, but don't know who to give credit to for the build.

It's a pretty sick Hybrid unit I can't wait to add to the thread and want to see more of.
Some day my people will be free.

Kurosabes

The only build I see that resembles what you describe are from Otabo's teams (P.P.S. to be specific), but he doesn't have breaks (maybe he removed them after an update). Barren also has something similar in his Mostly Maxed Out Team but he's not a Squire.
  • Modding version: PSX
  • Discord username: Kurosabes#0312

Shintroy

That's probably the unit I was thinking about. I remember there being another Two Swords, Healing staff squire in the past, but with Kagesougi over Snipe. Thanks for the help WKW.
