Unlike the intricate schools of thought among Alchemists, traditional Combat Artisans are generally divided into four schools: Construct Lord, Immortal Knight, Supreme Choice, and Controller.
The Construct Lord faction, also known as the Oristh School, is the earliest and most traditional school of Combat Artisans, commanding multiple Flexible Constructs to achieve complementarity in battle. The school's theory posits that a single Combat Artisan can constitute an entire squad.
The Immortal Knight School originated from Colin-Ishurian. The philosophy is to determine the outcome of a battle with a few high-quality Flexible Constructs. Unlike traditional Combat Artisans, they typically operate a single, more powerful and complex Construct during combat. Those commonly referred to as Pseudo Dragon Knights are also broadly considered part of this school.
