Witches manipulate the secrets of alchemy and make a living by concocting mysterious potions. They are also rich in magical knowledge, making them quite troublesome adversaries with their penchant for throwing poisons, casting curses, and using magical artifacts. They lead carefree lives with their black cats, selling potions to the townsfolk and travelling the world on their brooms.

Overview

While fully capable of spellcasting, witches prefer to resort to a variety of tools to get them out of sticky situations. With an array of potions, rods, wands, scrolls and other magical knick-knacks at their disposal, witches harness the power and versatility of a full backpack, always having just the right item for the job. If a warmage is a split between a wizard and a warrior, a witch is a split between a wizard and a crafting-focused class.

Strategy

Witches are a specialized type of Wizard who utilize items like magical tools and alchemy skills. By actively honing these skills and maximizing their effects, they can achieve astonishing power rivaling that of pure magic.

Among the most potent are the short-term buffs provided by the Blessed Potion of Body and Mind Revival (its Charm is invaluable for recruitment and cannot be replaced by any other buff) and the Blessed Rod's Holy Shield, Speed, and Earthquake.

Witches can create twice as many potions thanks to their unique feat, and standard potions are inexpensive to produce, making them easy to mass-produce and duplicate. More importantly, the ability to double-craft extremely valuable potions like Genetic Potion and Spawn Potion is crucial. This proves invaluable for party building and securing skilled residents. If materials are abundant, they can also be sold for profit.

The Throwing skill is more flavor-based; if you want to fight primarily by throwing, the Executioner is a better choice. A minor benefit is that Throwing skill still increases when throwing potions.

Another defining feature of the Witch is her high aptitude for riding. Not only does she possess excellent Riding skill, but when mounted on a character under the effect of Broom Transfiguration, she gains a significant Riding bonus (skill multiplied by 1.25 and +25). To maximize this, choose mounts with high speed.

The Broom Transformation spellbook is sold exclusively at Rodwin's Bakery in Mysilia. Since transformation turns aren't consumed while mounted, you'll rarely need to use stock, and purchasing it once or twice should suffice. Note that while the riding bonus isn't available, the Broom Transformation spellbook itself isn't exclusive to witches and can be used by other classes.

Witches possess the distinctive domains of Fire and Poison, Chaos, and can select one additional domain. Among these, Chaos is an exceptionally powerful attribute; if uncertain, focus your strategy around it. Both Fire and Poison inflict status ailments that deal slip damage, but these are too weak to be considered a viable tactic beyond the early game.

For the additional domain, choosing Cold or Darkness—attributes that rely on magic power and include arrow spells—offers greater flexibility.

Suggested Races

Eulderna has the highest magic device skill.
Mifu can enjoy a playstyle focused on buffs and debuffs more than other races.

Additionally, races that have magical potential do well as witches.

Suggested Gods

Itzpalt is a strong recommendation for any magic-focused class.
Ehekatol reduces the MP and SP consumption frequently used in spellcasting and potion brewing as a bonus. The Apostle Black Cat is perfect for players who prioritize witch role-playing.
Kumiromi is great to start out on even if you switch away later, because he boosts crafting skills like alchemy, literacy, boosts Ler for crafting and MP, boosts Dex and Per for throwing and evasion, and farming gets those all-important bonuses to your potion ingredients, covering nearly everything you'll do early-game besides actual spellcasting.
Jure provides bonuses to meditation, magic capacity and magic device, all of which are useful to witches.
Kizuami's artifact prohibits players from inflicting damage, but does not cover damage over time caused by state abnormalities. This makes it a good match for witches who have fire and poison as their domain and fight mainly against interference by potions.

Starting Equipment

 ==Overview==
-While capable of spellcasting, witches prefer to resort to a variety of tools to get them out of sticky situations. With an array of potions, rods, wands, scrolls and other magical knick-knacks at their disposal, witches harness the power and versatility of a full backpack, always having just the right item for the job.

With an array of potions, rods, wands, scrolls and other magical knick-knacks at their disposal, witches harness the power and versatility of a full backpack, always having just the right item for the job.  If a [[Elin:Warmage|warmage]] is a split between a [[Elin:Wizard|wizard]] and a warrior, a witch is a split between a wizard and a crafting-focused class.
 ==Strategy ==
-Witches are a class-centered about the magic device skill. They can perform in a support role, throwing potions to either heal and buff allies or damage and debuff enemies. Alternatively, they can choose to blast away with more offensive wands and rods, leveraging their magic device skill into damage. Witches are also capable of more conventional spellcasting, but are not as good at it as a dedicated wizard would be.Witches can brew bonus potions from alchemy to make up for the number they will be tossing around. Reliance on magic device makes witches resilient to statuses like silence and dim, at the expense of needing to carry around large quantities of items.
+Witches are a specialized type of Wizard who utilize items like magical tools and alchemy skills. By actively honing these skills and maximizing their effects, they can achieve astonishing power rivaling that of pure magic.
+Among the most potent are the short-term buffs provided by the Blessed Potion of Body and Mind Revival (its Charm is invaluable for recruitment and cannot be replaced by any other buff) and the Blessed Rod's Holy Shield, Speed, and Earthquake.
-While witches have access to the throwing skill, they do not have the strength growths required to deal good damage with throwing weapons alone, at least at the outset.
+Witches can create twice as many potions thanks to their unique feat, and standard potions are inexpensive to produce, making them easy to mass-produce and duplicate. More importantly, the ability to double-craft extremely valuable potions like Genetic Potion and Spawn Potion is crucial. This proves invaluable for party building and securing skilled residents. If materials are abundant, they can also be sold for profit.
-Broomification transforms any ally into a broom; while transformed, a creature will gain about 50 speed at the cost of a minor stat penalty. A witch can then ride the broomified creature for an extra speed boost above what a non-witch would receive. While being ridden, the buff timer on broomified creatures creatures will not run down. Spellbooks of broomification are only sold at Rodwyn's bakery in Mysilia; a witch should make it a priority to recruit her as soon as possible.
+The Throwing skill is more flavor-based; if you want to fight primarily by throwing, the [[Elin:Class/Executioner|Executioner]] is a better choice. A minor benefit is that Throwing skill still increases when throwing potions.
-The broom-riding feat will multiply a witch's riding skill by 1.25x, then add an additional 25 riding skill on top of that when riding a broomified mount.
+Another defining feature of the Witch is her high aptitude for riding. Not only does she possess excellent Riding skill, but when mounted on a character under the effect of Broom Transfiguration, she gains a significant Riding bonus (skill multiplied by 1.25 and +25). To maximize this, choose mounts with high speed.
-Chaos-element damage does randomly inflict statuses, while the fire and poison elements can afflict the enemy with slip damage.
+The Broom Transformation spellbook is sold exclusively at Rodwin's Bakery in Mysilia. Since transformation turns aren't consumed while mounted, you'll rarely need to use stock, and purchasing it once or twice should suffice. Note that while the riding bonus isn't available, the Broom Transformation spellbook itself isn't exclusive to witches and can be used by other classes.
+Witches possess the distinctive domains of Fire and Poison, Chaos, and can select one additional domain. Among these, Chaos is an exceptionally powerful attribute; if uncertain, focus your strategy around it. Both Fire and Poison inflict status ailments that deal slip damage, but these are too weak to be considered a viable tactic beyond the early game.
+For the additional domain, choosing Cold or Darkness—attributes that rely on magic power and include arrow spells—offers greater flexibility.
-The first thing early-game witches should do is craft a wand at the carpentry table, granting them a ranged attack based in magic device. The starting little girl can be transformed into a broom and ridden for a large speed boost. Since a witch has few defensive abilities at the outset, keeping distance and pelting enemies with wands is a strategy made easy by the speed from riding a broom. Witches can also opt to pursue the weightlifting skill and strength in order to increase their carrying capacity, given all the items they will be expected to carry around.
