General Thoughts

Fencer is an insanely powerful melee DPS focused unit, but like all melee units their strength lies in having good gear. Right now with having the best gear (money free) and a Rank 40 Ifrit, Fencer has 373 Atk!

Fencer also comes with an assortment of Debuffs in the form of Swarmstrike (Physical damage (1.6x) and poison (30%) to one enemy), Shadowstick (Physical damage (1.6x) and blind (30%) to one enemy), and Manastrike (Physical damage (1.5x) and reduce DEF (30%) for 3 turns to one enemy) which is on par with Fullbreak for armor reduction.

Fencer also has some good Buffs such as Darkness Veil (Increase dark resistance (40%) for 3 turns to all allies) and Concentrate (Negate 1 damage taken for 3 turns and increase ATK (40%) for 3 turns to caster).

Fencer’s Limit Burst becomes stronger than Barrage at high levels and also becomes the strongest defense reducing ability in the game!

Fencer’s downside is that she can’t use Greatswords (Excalibur) at least without Garland’s Trust Master Reward and isn’t the best at taking hits. Though anything Fencer goes against won’t last long anyways.

Verdict: Best overall DPS unit, will outclass Chizuru with the right Trust Master Rewards equipped, one of which IS Fencer’s.

Lore

A warrior known to have fought many beasts, who appears in the tales of a distant world where crystals bring peace and prosperity to the people. A beautiful and slender viera with the trademark long ears of her kind. the Fencer specializes in close combat.

Her svelte frame betrays no hint of her brutal talent with the rapier, fiercely cutting through opponents whenever the opportunity presents itself. The contrast between Fencer’s beauty and ferocity calls to mind the old saying, “Even the most beautiful roses have thorns.”
