At age 14 I was told I would end up as street sweeper if I didn ' t study hard . Now a street sweeper job seems really nice government job means it ' s unlikely you ' ll get fired , you get to walk a bit , you don ' t have to lift heavy stuff , pay is not that bad , etc . <| sep |> You can get more Beast Balls from Looker even after you finish the quest . He ' ll be at the Melemele Motel . The process of getting new balls is the same too . <| sep |> To answer in simple words since the other replies are just dancing around the facts . Just a launcher . <| sep |> Sorcerer isn ' t very interesting for a first playthrough , I ' d just swap between MA and MK a few times to see which you like best . Mystic Knights are all about preparation they can enchant stuff , cast spells that last only a minute but will end the battle before that minute is over provided that you can actually cast it , hence preparation and not midbattle and when really outclassed , you can attack by defending . Block well and it launches a fucking fireball into the offender ' s face . Magic Archers are more adaptable . Your skills charge relatively fast and while most of them deal little damage , each has its special effects . You can bind enemies , heal yourself , inflict any elemental debuff , floor enemies , stun them , set yourself on fire to burn your enemies yes you read that right . And it ' s the greatest skill in the game I tell you and if all else fails you can pierce someone with an explosive bolt and watch as the guts go flying all over the place . So . varied . Yeah . Anyway , Magic Archers are jack of all trades but masters of none . Their stat gains are very heavy on the defense , though , so while a fight may take a little longer if you don ' t know how to abuse enemy weaknesses , your character will easily be able to tank its way through the fight .
