    You forgot to mention the passive traits that each traveler starts out with.
    For example, Therion the thief can pick the locks of rare treasure chests out in the wild. Tressa the merchant (currently my fav) can find money lying around anywhere and everywhere at random times (she's basically a cash flow injection).

    • @j.d.6915
      @j.d.6915 Před 6 lety +1

      I think that Olberic has a lower encounter rate in the wild.

      That is a special skill you get after having four regular skills

    • @XemnasKH
      @XemnasKH Před 6 lety +3

      Specifically its a passive skill from the scholar job

  • @WondersOfWonder
    @WondersOfWonder Před 6 lety +28

    For anyone wondering basically the difference between the noble actions and the rogue actions is the you have to be a certain level with a noble character to do their action. With rouge actions it does a percent chance, and you can be whatever level you want.

      You forgot to mention the Hunter can also "Challenge" or "Provoke", which is the name for hers. Also, the Merchant can do a sort of summoning as well. She can buy help in fights for a price, to do massive damage. The Warrior is also the only class able to boost while defending, to help out your team. All the Characters have something in and out of battle to be used. But other than that, it was a great video. keep it up! :D

      @Cloudiroth462 Před 6 lety

      David Traumann I chose the cleric, I like her Japanese voice more though. It's just really nice starting with a holy/healer that can summon strong people to make up for her weak defense. Her story is a little meh so far, but she's nice to have gameplay wise

    I like how they did the 3D environment and lighting/shading with SNES graphics & breath of fresh air gameplay. A battle system that isn't dependant on just fighting.

  • @BigDaddyMacc
    @BigDaddyMacc Před 6 lety +1

    i use merchant, warrior, cleric, scholar. but what is importan is to get the other jobs and unlock the support skills. combo them and you will get a super strong lineup. esp scholar, give him as much SP and unlock the double elm attack. so scholar with cleric as 2nd job is super strong. warrior with hunter as 2nd job.

    Question, will you only have access to the path skill of the first character you pick for the entire game? Or can you use each of them once you recruit the characters in game?

    • @magicmasterfan1
      @magicmasterfan1 Před 6 lety +1

      you can use all of them.

    • @continuallyblessed44
      @continuallyblessed44 Před 6 lety +1

      The only drawback is, whoever you choose at the beginning has to always be in your party. You will not be able to switch them out.

    • @BoomstickGaming
      @BoomstickGaming  Před 6 lety

      They have a set amount of uses and once gone, you will have to go recruit a new person. They pretty much act as free attack items.

  • @gavind1363
    @gavind1363 Před 6 lety +3

    Something I'm curious about is, can you change a character's class? Or are they there set classes?

    • @BoomstickGaming
      @BoomstickGaming  Před 6 lety +6

      The first class you pick will always be in your party the whole game but the others can be recruited and added to your party later in the game. The class is tied to the character because they have a hand crafted origins story.

    • @gavind1363
      @gavind1363 Před 6 lety

      Okay, that's what I thought. Thanks much! I just heard a bit of misleading info in the comments and I thought I missed something.

    • @silverlyons5049
      @silverlyons5049 Před 6 lety

      Eventually you'll be able to add a sub-job to your characters to extend their capabilities. I'm not sure if you can swap this around at will but that info might be out there somewhere, or I'm sure the game will explain it when you get access to it.

  • @HBlatz87
    @HBlatz87 Před 5 lety

    Good, informative vid for a great game. Honestly no matter who you start with you won't be disappointed, just keep in mind your starting character will be locked to your party until you finish out their story so make sure you pick someone who fits your play style!
    I started with H'aanit the Huntress. Her olde timey speech is a bit annoying but she's great in battle.
    Quick tip if you start with the Huntress: if you capture enough healing monsters with her (mosswine or those rams west of Noblecourt) you can get away with not having a healer for a while if you'd rather focus on offense characters first.
    TL:DR - Good game. Pick character you like. Down with plagiarism. Subscribe to Boomstick.

    • @SilentPsychopath
      @SilentPsychopath Před 6 lety +4

      kevisafan Olberic, Alfyn, Tressa, and Ophelia are Noble, and Therion, Cyrus, Primrose and H'aanit are Rogue. The one problem with this video is that it doesn't go into the advantages and cons so much, such as Ophelia's guide ability is dependant on her level, whereas Primrose' s can allure anyone, but at a risk.

    • @Atlessa
      @Atlessa Před 6 lety

      Pretty sure Primrose/Dancer is the only class that uses rouge as part of their skillset.

    • @SilentPsychopath
      @SilentPsychopath Před 6 lety

      Pyrrha Nikos If you are talking about the makeup, then yes (and great thinking there). If you're actually talking about the Rogue actions, both Therion and H'aanit were used as examples in the Noble/Rogue trailer, and I can confirm through playing the demo that Cyrus has a Rogue action.
