Notes
Due to the robe lowering MP cost by 20%, it is more valuable alongside abilities with high MP costs and pairs very well with MP boosting rings. It also coordinates well with abilities that function as spammable damage bursts, which allows the user to unload all of its mana on the enemy with greater efficiency. Notably, it increases ability usage more than all robes except for Tlatoani’s Shroud.

However for classes with a Wisdom modifier, the Ritual Robe is a more viable option, and because this robe entirely lacks Attack, lategame robes are significantly better for raw damage. Early on though, if you want to have more magic sustain as well as a little bit of extra health regeneration, this robe is an excellent pick, for how early and commonly it can be obtained.
