Dragon Quest IX
An armamentalist is a powerful proponents of the formidable Fource, they can can wield wands, bows and swords while also weakening enemies with a variety of status effects. However, they are not very good at directly damaging enemies and have subpar defenses. Their Coup-de-Grace is "Voice of Experience," which increases the EXP payout after battle by a random rate.
The Armamentalist's class-unique skill is Fource. The Fource skill tree provides many bonuses to health, defense, strength, and attack. You will also unlock different Fources, (i.e., Fire Fource) that the Armamentalist can imbue other party members with elemental attributes, raising their attack and defense as well as allowing them to deal damage based on the corresponding element of the used. Multiple fource's can be used on a character at the same time (or on all of the party if you finished the lvl 40 class quest and keep the rewarded scroll in the Armamentalist's inventory).
