Selection: “Let’s see how good you are.”
Job: Destroyer
Weapons: Fists
AI Behavior: When selected as DPS, Zaius will perform a standard monk single target rotation, attacking whichever enemy has the most damaging attacks. He will use an AoE rotation only if there are four or more enemies active at once. Zaius will prioritize staying in melee range even when marked with an AoE target unless the overlap would result in killing the player, and use a long duration Bloodbath as needed to heal himself. Zaius will not typically use the party’s Limit Break except on bosses, and then only during a tankbuster, but has no problem doing so before the player does.
Instead of a player’s selection of Fist stances, Zaius is perpetually in a stance called Fury of Halone. It gives him a moderate increase to damage done, as well as a reduction in damage received. He can stack up to three stacks of Greased Lightning until 80, at which point he (finally) gains his fourth.

Tagging: Whoever would like to, honestly. Also, if your character knows Zaius well at all, please feel free to send along the “My turn!” ask and I’ll see if I can come up with something for him joining your party. ...just remember, you’ll probably regret it. He’s a monster.
