If survival is a concern you could run Evoker on your Necromancer instead for Tombstone Vice. A lot things in the game are very vulnerable to petrify plus it adds an extra Chain Killer proc for your Fencer, provided you are rotating the ailment priority. You also still have the Golem Coffin for exce...

I just unlocked Vampire yesterday. I'm actually disappointed. I thought there would be more to them. Those requirements, though, like whaaaaaaat. I thought I had to beat the final bosses of the game or something. Thanks for providing guild cards with the mystery teaser, guys! Laying the groundwork ...

Usually I just pick based on what skill sets my team are missing and need covered. Highlander usually is a top pick if I'm not running one as Blood Fortune and Bloody Offense are way too important to pass up. Zodiac is often another one for elemental damage mitigation, which becomes increasingly mor...

However, I do have a Harbinger there now, to combine with Magus, so what I'm lacking is probably more defense than ailments. Guess Protector would take the place of Hero. Those element walls are needed. Hero actually offers a lot defence. Physical Shield and Elemental Shield are good sources of mit...

I just realized that Gunner has lost all three cheap elemental attacks...that throws in a major stick in my thought wheel. Damn you, Atlus, damn you and your nerfing... Okay, so no Gunner then, I guess. *goes back to filling in my extensive Excel sheet of skills and stats* To make up for it, their ...

Stats-wise, this could be a very solid team, really good balance in the stats: Hero Landsknecht Harbinger War Magus Sovereign Personally I would swap out the War Magus since they're more suitable for a lock down focused team with a Ninja or Nightseeker. Its a bit hard to make them work outside of t...

I haven't jumped back into the game yet, since I'm still trying to decide over what my next team will probably be. Probably will try and involve Ninja at least; I love my ailments. My first run ended as Hero/Imperial, Nightseeker/Landsknect, Sovereign/Zodiac, Harbinger/Highlander and Gunner/Ronin. I...

Shogun is actually one of the better early game classes; but you really need a Sovereign for them to actually shine since they really want the elemental arms.

For early game Front Command, Echoing Slash and Great Warrior get the job done quite nicely.

Updated for finishing post-game.



I'll probably post the rest of my characters at some point.

Yeah I'm noticing a trend with both her and the other superboss. For some reason their physical attacks are basically impossible to survive unmitigated. Though Abyssal Princess is much worse. Worth noting she always opens up with her fire elemental attack during the day. Just like with Ur-Child, do ...

Finally reached the Abyssal Princess . She's quite annoying, her ailment resistance is pretty high and she can freely use a move that removes all buffs and debuffs at the end of each of her turns. Her HP and damage output is also ridiculous, though that might her level modifier at play, I'm still ar...

I petted the squirrel , because who wouldn't? Forgot that I only had one Ariadne Thread left... Dreadest backtracking ever XD Ah right, that menace. I completely forgot to mention him, our most despised and feared enemy. I also lost my thread to him, I couldn't help it either~ But that's why he's s...

Finished the Illusory Woods . Absolutely terrible place to explore thanks to the Hexgourds , which have reverted back to their original EO2 counterparts. This means they're immune to basically everything but almighty or untyped damage. They're pretty annoying to avoid too since they hound you throug...

14th labyrinth is pretty easy so far. The FOEs seem to have an inflated level since their damage is sky high even with mitigation but are pretty easy to avoid so far. The random encounters seem to borrow EO4's gimmick where they damage each other for additional effects. Though its much less dangerou...
