Beneath the numerous sharp objects found on a wraith's person is a relatively fragile fighter. To maximize speed, their armor is lightweight and doesn't provide a lot of protection. This is probably for the better, though, since a wraith's speed will act as their armor. Faster characters have a better ability to dodge attacks.Unlike other physical classes, wraiths don't have immense strength or particularly deadly weapons. Because of this, they perform best as a support to your offensive front, using their poisoning, stunning, and incapacitating abilities to aid their allies. They also perform well in finishing off opponents that have already suffered a huge beating from your primary offense.
The one job a wraith should never have do, however, is guard. By guarding another character, they lose their speed-based defenses and intentionally take hits for others. To contrast this, a wraith will probably never need guarding, as they don't rely on support from other classes.
