## Overview

Beast Trainers can be good to have in any campaign as they are a good offensive class and can also support the party by summoning extra assistance in battle.

The Summon Animal skill is a Beast Trainer's trademark skill, as it allows them to summon an animal to help them during combat. The animal will depart after the battle ends.

The Feed Animal skill lets the Beast Trainer give an animal some food to get them to do something, like getting a wolf to track an enemy, get a squirrel to climb a tree to get an object, get a rabbit to dig a hole, etc. If the Beast Trainer uses this skill on an animal they summon, it will increase the summoned animal's stats and their max health as well.

The Stampede skill is an offensive skill that deals damage to enemies and may inflict Daze afterwards.

Flock Screen is great for lowering an enemy's accuracy and success rate; this is particularly useful for the Beast Trainer as it allows them to have a better chance of evading an enemy attack.

Tame is useful for ending battles quickly against territorial or angered animals; this is also useful outside of combat.

Animal Bond is only useful if the Summon Animal skill is already possessed, but it is useful when it can be employed.
