oooh ok, cool!

random question: Does anyone know what Tressa says when she (sometimes) enters her level 4 boost? It sounds like "welcome back!" but I assume it's "don't come back!"

I started with Olberic. Then got Primrose and Therion. Kind of regretted going in that order. Didn't give me very good weakness coverage at all, since Therion overlaps with Primrose (daggers) and Olberic (swords).

I am currently starting Ophilia's chapter 1. I expect staves and light magic to help my versatility.

I spent most of last night getting the sub-classes because I had no idea it was a designated location thing, I just assumed they unlocked automatically after like unlocking your ultimate or whatever, but nah lol they've all got their own locations

I'll have to do some experimentation, since I just kinda slapped the sub jobs on in the order in which they were received (for example my main is Tressa and the first subclass I found was Thief, so now she's merchant/thief which seems underwhelming so far; I collect with her a LOT though so I guess Incidental Attack is alright).

Primrose as a cleric is working nicely.

Alfyn as a dancer is a dark horse that I didn't expect to work as well as it is.

Ophelia as a scholar is working nicely, gives her great elemental coverage and really isn't that much less powerful than Cyrus.

Cyrus as a merchant gives him wind coverage, but my goal with him is to get the Save SP passive. That'll be a game-changer for his expensive 22 SP spells.

Can't remember the rest of my setup atm, but it's quite the fun system to tinker around with.

EDIT: Oh yeah H'aanit as a warrior

Provoking that old woman and fighting her in Noblecourt was probably the hardest fight of the game for me so far but that War Hammer was worth it.

great game so far i am super into it. started with haani't and am pleased, she had been a really solid main character. roughly 15 hours in and am currently on my first chapter 2 but have grinded for levels and money a good bit. definitely my favorite switch game thus far

Sunk 6 hours in since last night, god damn I love this game but I'm playing handheld/tablet so my hands keep cramping up. Not to mention battery life... but that's what I signed up for I guess.

Maining Alfyn and so far got Primrose, Tressa and H'aanit in my party. Just finished Therion's chapter 1 and dammit, I dig his character so much! Thinking of replacing Tressa but not sure yet. Hopefully I'll decide by the time I unlock everyone

Dancer's third Support Skill.

After every action, restore SP. I don't know if it's a percentile or a flat amount, but my character with 103 SP restores 6 SP every turn. That suggests 5% maybe? Regardless, enough to mostly compensate for a single target attack spell.

I like how the sidequests in this game require you to actually pay attention to NPC's. Also, H'annit is the MVP of my squad. She evades everything that's not magic and can dish out insane amounts of damage.

Is Tressa useless?


I'm still doing ch1 stuff but I've found uses for her. Good to make money, and in combat I just have her donate BP, help break and hire help if Im missing a weakness. She's definitely not doing too much damage and she just uses items to heal, but she fits.

Plus Alfyn more than makes up for damage. Full boosted amputate is ridiculous and last stand wipes trash. Not to mention he recovers sp each attack.

Yeah I picked Therion, who's kind of in a similar place of "easily replaceable". He's got great single target damage, but he's not great against groups, I subbed him as merchant and he's my SP/BP battery. Tressa subbed as thief would probably work similarly

I don't quite have it unlocked but his final skill damages all targets and scales based on speed so could be really good

I only played one chapter in hand held. Love playing it on the tv.

Its just as awesome on hand held though. Im using a third party SNES dual shock controller with the game(had 2 for my pc with Bluetooth support). Really gives it that extra 16 bit feeling

Also, is there any way to improve Therion's success rate when stealing from townspeople? I'd like to steal more, but these odds aren't looking too good.

Level is really the main factor. Also in some towns (such as Grandport) there's an NPC you can scrutinize and Steal rates go up like crazy in that area

No, that's in a town. Wellspring, guard in front of the door that's 9* strong. Three NPCs in the house, bow is 15% steal rate. Inquire the guy on the far left to boost your theft chances, bow will then be 80%

I used H'aanit. I was having trouble with her in duels as well but I started paying more attention to monsters and capturing them. I try to go for the triple attack ones. At full burst they do around 2-2.5k x3.
