Damage dealer

A Damage Dealer is character (often an elementalist) whose main purpose is to cause huge amounts of damage to a monster or group of monsters. An elementalist (or other character) that can cause several hundred points of damage very quickly is considered a Damage Dealer. A Damage Dealer is usually unable to keep themselves alive due to the high energy cost of their spells and skills and their lack of healing skills. A Damage Dealer is not an essential part of a party but is sought-after because they generally make things move along much faster.
