Kaiser Overview

Kaiser was released in patch as part of the Nova class group, which also includes Cadena and Angelic Buster. Kaiser can use combo attacks to defeat mobs and raising the Morph Gauge to max allows them to transform into Kaiser's Final Form for 60 seconds. Kaiser allows you to use key-combos to activate some of his skills, and when doing so you get a damage boost. In Kaiser's beginner tab, they also get some useful skills like a Rope Lift skill (most classes have to wait until 5th job to get a skill like this), an attacking toggle skill and a passive transform skill that increases attack speed.

Kaiser has both decent mobbing and bossing skills. Training Kaiser is a fun job to play; by the time you hit 4th job you'll have some great mobbing skills that can hit multiple platforms and help you gain levels in no time. Kaiser's final form lasts up to 60 seconds, but it can be extended with various Buff Duration stats. Whilst Final Form is really good- you don't need to rely on it to have an enjoyable time playing Kaiser.

Kaiser as a bossing class is all about timing your Final Form for bursting bosses down. In Final Form, Kaiser also gets 100% Knockback resistance and is unaffected by attack reflection, allowing them to take down bosses without hassle. If you main Kaiser, you'll be wanting to maximize your Final Form up-time to get the most potential out of the class. You will be mostly using your Giga Wave attacking skill, throwing in Wing Beat and using your Tempest Blades to help get your Morph Gauge filled faster.

Kaiser First Job Skill Build

You can max all of your skills in first job. Follow this build:

• Dragon Slash (+1), Air Lift (+2)
• Air Lift (10)
• Dragon Slash (MAX)
• Air Lift (MAX)
• Flame Surge (MAX)
• Scale Skin (MAX)

In first job you'll get your main attacking skill called Dragon Slash. It has three different attacks that you can spam and is really good at mobbing in early levels. You should max Air Lift early on for mobility and the Flame Surge isn't too useful. Don't forget to take a look in your beginner tab skills for your Vertical Grapple, Realign:Attacker toggle skill and Dragon Link for performing combos.

Skill Description & Overview

Kaiser Second Job Skill Build

You can max all of your skills in second job. Follow this build:

• Dragon Slash I (MAX), Attacker Mode I (MAX)
• Sword Mastery (MAX)
• Blaze On (MAX)
• Tempest Blades (MAX)
• Inner Blaze (MAX)
• Impact Wave (MAX)
• Piercing Blaze (MAX)
• Defender Mode I (MAX)

In second job, you don't have to put too many SP into your main attacking skill to max it and you can also get an upgrade to your togglable skill Attacker Mode I. The two secondary attacking skills aren't very useful, so you might prefer to max those last and continue using your Dragon Slash skill for mobbing. You get your first buff skill called Blaze On, which adds a small damage boost. Tempest Blade is a good skill to use with Dragon Slash at you can use it attack mobs all around you.

Skill Description & Overview

Kaiser Third Job Skill Build

You can max all of your skills in third job. Follow this build:

• Dragon Slash II (MAX), Attacker Mode II (MAX)
• Final Form (MAX)
• Wing Beat (MAX)
• Catalyze (MAX)
• Stone Dragon (MAX)
• Advanced Inner Blaze (MAX)
• Self Recovery (MAX)
• Cursebite (MAX)
• Pressure Chain (MAX)
• Defender Mode II (MAX)

In 3rd job, you finally get access to Final Form. When your Morph Gauge is full, you can transform into Final Form, where you can use any of your current skills, with some of them buffed to give extra hits and damage. Your main attacking skill gets boosted again and you also get a simple summon called Stone Dragon, which attacks and pulls enemies towards it. Wing Beat is a good mobbing skill to utilize too, as you can use it multiple times to keep attacking mobs.

Skill Description & Overview

Kaiser Fourth Job Skill Build

You can max all of your skills in fourth job. Follow this build:

• Blade Burst (+1), Attacker Mode III (MAX)
• Blade Burst (MAX)
• Dragon Slash III (MAX)
• Expert Sword Mastery (MAX)
• Advanced Tempest Blades (MAX)
• Unbreakable Will (MAX)
• Nova Warrior (MAX)
• Dragon Barrrage (MAX)
• Inferno Breath (MAX)
• Grand Armor (MAX)
• Gigas Wave (MAX)
• Nova Temperance (MAX)
• Defender Mode III (MAX)

Your main mobbing skill is Blade Burst in fourth job. This skill has a huge hitbox, allowing you to attack multiple platforms at once. It's a good idea to max this as soon as possible to help with training. Your Dragon Slash and Attacker Mode all get their final upgrades too. Gigas Wave is your main bossing skill, and it's amazing. You won't be doing much bossing in early levels, so you might be best leaving that skill until later on. Inferno Breath is an okay skill as it gives some Damage Over Time damage to mobs, but most likely you'll be happy just using Blade Burst.
