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. Really now? I tend to get her killed too quickly.

I saw the Golem and I forgot to ask... Should I have defeated him before or should I wait until I get subclassing? Golem should be doable during or after the 3rd Labyrinth depending on your party. It's much easier if you're using the Hero class and have access to Spark Blade . Well now I feel espec...

Wait. What?

Anyway, I may need a map of the Southern Shrine. Specifically on the Second Floor, because I feel like I am running in circles.

So update. I made it to the Waterfall Woods without using REAPER-02. Yay! Now in all seriousness, I like how we are introduced to a new NPC or two and a simple character arc for them as well as getting to meet the NPCs of previous games. Seeing now I am in Waterfall Woods, I am greeted by Charis and...

Looking back at this, I can see why I stopped writing as often. I hope someday to not disappoint my future self.

This game is reaaaaaaally long... Reached the 12th labyrinth, at level 75 (this feels extremely weird, as at this stage I'm usually in post-game stuff, killing dragons). Spoilers below (and some 11th labyrinth boss rant): So yeah, the forest folk are definitely back, but are actually a bit friendli...

Hi hi! I just recently defeated Cerrunos and just now traversing through the Primitive Jungle and the Giant Ruins. I used a Harbinger instead of my Shogun. They have a Yggdroid portrait so I named them 'REAPER-02'. REAPER-02 saved me so much time, but I quickly switched back to my Shogun because the...

Giant's Ruins is a terrible place. Insane encounter rate makes navigating the place a chore even if it helps out with the FOE mechanic. The encounters themselves are pretty horrible too with Sloths that appear seemingly in every battle and are relatively bulky. Its good thing they don't do much...

Which level are you? This boss is not too hard as long as you do not attack him on turns that are a multiple of 5, that's when he uses his counter move (or bind his arms first). Make sure to kill/disable the adds he summons so they stop healing him. In Basic, outside of his counter move, he barely ...

So I finally started playing this game and I am stuck on that goddamn Cerrunos surprise . I may need to swap out my party but I don't know who needs to leave yet. Roster so far: Hero - Highlander - Imperial Sovereign - Shogun As for storytelling so far, it really feels busier compared to EOV (in a g...

Finally got passed that blasted 23rd floor!

It has been a while but I want to be honest. I kind of wished we had ALL of the Etrian Odyssey classes in this game. I understand why we can't do that and such but Etrian Odyssey X sounds like the dream game where my main EO3 team and my EO4 team (as well as my EO5 team) get to team up and tackle a ...

Speaking of mapping, the Southeast section is starting to bother me for a bit. Hopefully it'll stop.

Hmmm...

Shield Focused Dragoon + Single-Bladed Masurao + Hound focused Rover + Divine Herald + Elemancer = ????? Couldn't tell from the main game since thanks to that experience DLC quest, I managed to get to lvl. 70. How would this fair in post game however?

I keep feeling dumber and dumber as more people are able to get passed 23F. Could someone give me a good path to get to the next gravity switch on the southwest section of the floor? You mean the switch in the large room in the south-west corner of F23? From the east side door: left, up. From the n...
