JasminePlaying this class
Elephant Rider halves incoming attack damage while mounted, then uses Heavy Charge to hit multiple targets. Its 2×2 body occupies four tiles. Leave the team a path before charging.
Suitable characters
Tobias: follow Soldier → Armored Knight → Dreadnought on Theodora's route, then 
Castle Knight before the elephant in Part 3, continuing high-Strength, high-Defense tanking.
Ninae: improve both defenses across routes, master Castle Knight for Intercept, then mount an elephant and add the Promised One's damage reduction. This needs multiroute training and abilities; an improvised class change lacks that preparation.
Training requirements
Unlocks after Segment 1 of the Promised One's story, with exams from Segment 2. Recommended level 35 and Riding C, using a dedicated Elephant Rider exam pass. Prepare Riding early.
While mounted, it cannot evade and uses elephant-specific attacks instead of ordinary swords, axes, or bows. Half damage still costs HP, and low Resistance remains vulnerable to concentrated magic. Check the endpoint and rear/flanks before Heavy Charge so you do not block allies.
Base growth favors HP, Strength, Dexterity, and Defense, with Speed −10 and Magic/Resistance −5 each. Elephant Rider's Path improves growth with levels.
When to use it
Deploy for a large tank and area charge. Narrow routes restrict its four-tile body; start with one elephant, since space matters more than numbers. Learn Elephant Vanguard mastery only if staying: Hit +10 requires being mounted as Elephant Rider and stops after changing class. Do not detour solely to borrow it.
