    Hell yeah!

    Also to those complaining about accuracy: Put some points in DEX and get a better weapon! I know very well that initially LNC seems to have terrible accuracy, but trust me by rank 35-40 with the right stats you won't be missing nearly as much. Feint is a great skill but don't rely on it completely because doing that will reduce your overall DPS, and that's not something you want to do with lancer!

    Try talking to experts of other classes and you'll realize lancer is actually one of the most balanced classes in the game, fairly high accuracy, decent hp pool (although pretty terrible compared to other melee classes) and amazingly high DPS, second only to archer! (which is really the broken class at the moment).

    It also gets a fairly decent MP pool too. My Lancer is 10 levels behind my Marauder and has nearly double the mana, it's definately the best class for solo grinding in my opinion.

    Indeed I forgot to mention the awesome MP pool, I think it's either equal or very close to Archer which is quite a lot for a melee class.

    Cavalier - Gets a horse that can be ridden.

    Give bonuses to the party's combat while the * Knight is mounted. Granted this would make them stronger outside of dungeons than in, but this is an idea in progress.
    I want!
