Who is Palamena in Visions of Mana?
As the Queen of Illystana, Palamena has been keeping the royal city afloat since her father’s passing yet yearns for adventure outside the castle. With her crowning as the Alm of Water, she promises to make the world a better place for her brother, Prince Iain. On the battlefield, Palamena is a Magic fiend, utilizing multiple spells for various elements. While she keeps her distance, she can be very helpful with targeting weaknesses and getting in some good hits.
All classes were reset with base weapons, so stats like Attack and Magic Attack may vary depending on the weapon. Also, the comparisons were made from the Monarch class.
