Im playing the 3DS version. It was such a nice feature in DQ11 and I miss it. I dont know if Im going to bone myself by going down the wrong path so I did the first waterfall dungeon and have barely spent any (got 8 in Courage for Hero and 10 in Humanity for Yangus).

That's why "build guides" exist, likely even on this very website.

It's kinda hard to botch the skill trees though. Just pick one weapon and focus that to max, if you'd like some suggestions check the spoiler
Hero = Sword (get Omnislash from his Courage tree tho)
Yangus = Axe or Club
3rd party member = Staff
4th party member = Bow

I see people discuss builds, but the answers vary wildly. Idk how difficult this game is so I dont want to screw up my build and have to start over.

Your "builds" don't matter anyway. I don't think it's actually possible to make the game unwinnable by being really bad at picking skills.

You can make life more difficult for yourself, certainly, but there are guides for that. You can't make it unwinnable, but I can see particularly bad builds demanding excessive lategame grind.

You can farm skill seeds so you can't really screw up, just waste time.

Last I checked, it's not worth it going all in on a single skill.

That said, I've not played DQVIII in at least 10 years.

If you want a fun run go full Fisticuffs for everyone. It's pretty intense.

If you like hating yourself, sure, hah.

I ran fisticuffs Angelo because he had some unique skills, but it was still a waste. Although he still ends up the weakest, what with the new character slots.
