Yeah, I don't mean spell fencers. They add extra magic damage to the melee attack regardless if the enemy is weak against it or not. Most bosses are human, and the only humans who have a weakness are the ones wearing armor, then it's Thunder, making magic users even worse because you can't even hit a weakness.
Using brave x 4 when you can for your attacking characters is worse than default x3 and then brave x 4. You'll defend three times and then do four attacks. Doing it the other way you have no extra defense while waiting for your BP to regain.
On random battles though, there's no reason not to do brave x 4 unless you know you can't kill the enemies in a single turn, and most of the time you'll be able to.
