Description
Lancers are a highly trained breed of physical combatant who wield as their primary weapon any variety of two-handed polearms. Through skillful manipulation of the pronounced length of these hafted weapons, lancers are often able to outrange their opponents, showering them with a maelstrom of lethal pokes and thrusts from positions of relative safety. They are also adept at a wide array of other offensive maneuvers by virtue of their facility with myriad other polearms designed for slashing or bludgeoning.
Due to the influence of the highly esteemed lancer sentries of Ala Mhigo, the long pike once saw widespread usage throughout Eorzea. Subsequently, a dramatic proliferation of weaponry and advances in metallurgy led to the variegated forms which can be found today.
Impressions: Seems like they can attack from a distance without receiving any damage from monsters. Also, because they have many different types of attacks other than just slashing. They may also be good with polearms like the halberd."
