Final Fantasy TacticsEdit

Cidolfus Orlandeau is by default a Sword Saint, and it's implied Balbanes Beoulve was one as well. Sword Saint is arguably the best class in the game. If equipped with swords or Knight Swords, he can use every Swordskill in the game -- that is, the powerful spells cast by Holy Knights, Dark Knights, and Divine Knights. Aside from dealing heavy area-of-effect damage, these skills inflict status such as Silence, restore HP and MP to the caster, or break the victim's equipment.

Final Fantasy Airborne BrigadeEdit
