Etrian Odyssey looks like an interesting series, and seeing as there's a fifth game coming soon, I thought I'd get into it quickly.

Which game is a good starting point? I was initially going to start from the first DS games, but found out that the first two were remade.

How about you play through all of the games and form your own opinion instead of just playing through everything that /v/ approves?

Same basic gameplay throughout the whole series. Explore, draw maps, die by everything. Every new game adds quality-of-life features.

You can give EO3 on the DS a try. It's often the most interesting and liked EO by the fans. EOIV is a very good starting game with a more manageable difficulty curve if EO3 fails to pull you in.

>get into it quickly
Not sure about you, but I personally take forever on these games.
>>
>>383971964
The Untold versions (remade) are pretty good. 4 is the easiest game since the dungeons aren't as deep and 3 is my personal favorite. Pick your poison.

Untold on 3DS is a lot of fun.

>>383972507
Playing 3 for the first time, about what level should I be when I fight Narmer? I can only get him down 20% before we run out of TP and get wiped.
>>
3 and 4 have subclassing, 4 is the easier of the two. Start there and make sure to start with a Nightseeker.
>>
>>383972661
I don't remember EO3 very much at all. Remember to use items to supplement your party's weaknesses

Thank you friends, I will start from 4 since it sounds like the easiest, then go through the whole series from there.
>>
>>383972842
Ignore this anon, Nightseekers are mediocre as hell until endgame. If know nothing about the games a safe team for starting EO4 is Fortress, Medic, Landsknecht, Runemaster, and Sniper. That should cover your bases as far as binds, healing, and damage
>>
>>383972661
15-18 is where I usually end up at the end of any first stratum.

Also, use the tent area on the 4th floor between phases.
>>
>>383972661
The first time I played my team was 14-15, every playthrough afterwards was 12. As long as you have a good party composition and an aoe to deal with his submerging move you should be fine.

>>383972661
>I can only get him down 20% before we run out of TP and get wiped.

After the 1st phase, head back and rest at the camp close by. Good luck

Each of the games are not explicitly connected to one another so you can honestly start off from anywhere. Though my suggestion would be

EO4 > Untold > Untold 2

Correct. Classic exists and in Untold 2 it's the same content as story minus the story characters.

I already played that one, its a forgotten masterpiece but not really a dungeon crawler. Also anyone reading this, play Theresia, it is such an underrated videogame. Its is sad, beautiful, even twisted but all of it is amazing.

The 3DS has a spooky eShop game called The Starship Damrey. It's simple and short without RPG elements, but the first person dungeon crawler gameplay makes you fear turning the camera around with each step you make.

I don't remember such a thing, anon. Maybe it was just the robot you start with? I dunno, you switch between bots in the intro.

>>383971964
1 is a good starting point, either the original or the remake. I say this because every other game is so hilariously ABOVE it in quality that 1 seems bad by comparison. If, like me, you learn to love 1 for what it is without the pomp and glitter, than the rest of the series will be fantastic.

Personally, I played it in release order. 1, 2, 3, 4, 1 Le Millenom Gorl, 2 Fafnir, and will play 5 soon enough. I think that's the best way to play it.

Le millinom gorl has a really dumb Grimoire system tho, and I wont blame you for playing on normal.
>>
>>383975530
Revenge is nerfed within the understanding that the rest of the game is balanced around much more realistic numbers. Better, more reachable combos exist, and as such 1/999 revenges are not the single best source of dps anymore. It went the way of Etrian Odyssey 3 and 4, where team based synergy is borderline required.

When EO1 originally came out I thought it was the best game ever.

Hard to go back now, but that magic was real.
>>
>>383976396
Princess was an HP and MP battery. It was basically slightly more passive version of the Trabodour from Etrian Odyssey 1 and 2, with the ability to use heavy armor and shields. It was a faceroll class.
>>
>>383976552
Uh yeah I know...
Did you misread my post?
>>
>>383976545
Exactly my same experience. Claret Hollows had me cumming from every orifice once I figured out how to not hate everything about it. Easily one of the best dungeons in RPG history.
>>
>>383971964
these games are only interesting for the first 2 or so hours. then they become tedious slogs where the only real challenge are FOEs.
>>
>>383976636
I'm saying git gud, it was an unbalanced meme class. Infinite MP is bad design as it gives the player 0 reason to ever return to town for anything but selling items. There should be SOME threat underground.

As it stands, keeping your Princess at full health, constantly buffing everyone would return everyone to full hp and mp like, every fucking turn. It was broken, and they nerfed it in Untold 2 by limiting their TP recovery to their ultimate.

The highlander class is one that blows a serious amount of ass for the first half of the game, and is based off of team attacks.

If you're not playing on hard mode, then you should be fine, all things considered. Don't blow your TP load on anything but foes or bosses, normal enemies usually aren't worth your time. Auto attack them to death, and be kay.

A good thing to remember is that an enemy with a bound head will take 50% additional damage from pure elemental attacks. Using head snipe with Ricky and following up with an elemental attack from the kid will usually be enough to 2 shot most foes.

Also if damage taken isn't an issue, beeline for Raquna's Smite and Shield Storm abilities, they are surprisingly powerful and is one of your team's only accesses to blunt damage.
>>
>>383977278
Good luck. Hope you get a real answer among all the meme replies.
>>
>>383977312
The best way to learn is to play at least one of the games. If you have a 3DS, get EO4 to get the gist of it. But yeah, for me I make it so that at least each class is contributing one point to the gathering skills.
>>
>>383977808
I'm guessing you have control over your party class. Any tips on what classes I should and shouldn't take?

Here I am, still learning shit. Also by the way, how does the highlander's elemental chasing spear skill work? Sorry I forgot the name but I know the highlander have that skill of sort.
>>
>>383977902
You basically have 3 major builds you can go for.

Status Effect and Support Team (My favorite) Consisting of Snipers, Nightstalkers, and Arcanists.

Pure Damage, fuck you team, consisting of spellcasters, Imperials, and Nightstalkers.

Chain attack teams, consisting of Spellcasters, Landsharks, and Arcanists.

Build around a theme, and just charge forward. Etrian Odyssey 4 is an easy game. So long as you dont go FULL retard, you should be fine with any half-logical build. Stack what seems like it goes together.
>>
>>383977984
Chasing works in one of two ways. I forget which one the spear is.

Either you use it on the same turn as an elemental attack, and it will activate from an attack used that turn and attack the same targets multiple times-

Or it will activate based on what was used last turn, and adopt the damage and element used.

Once again, play at least one of the games Nigga. But yeah, anything that isn't the Untold version's story mode will allow you to pick any class you want for your characters.

But the general idea is still the same for all RPGs. Make it balanced. ESPECIALLY if you are new to the series. Tank, DPS, Healer, the works. Though really, that's just to get the idea going on how to gauge the difficulty of the game. Play around with different class builds for a quarter of the first run. After that restart the game if you want and focus on what party build you wish.

Though in this series the key is to at least have one class that can do status effects, and one class that can do elemental damage. Might wanna read up on the status effects in this game because they actually matter shit for a lot of enemies.

>>383978663
Adding to what that anon said, yeah status effects are super important in EO. It's pretty much the only JRPG I can think of where they're not only useful (they even work on bosses not explicitly immune to specific ones) but nearly required to keep some enemies from thrashing you around.

I feel something of an attachment to Himukai since i've been playing these games ever since the original EO1.
Watching his art evolve and come so far over the years has been a real treat.
But yeah his EO1 art kinda blows and I can only imagine what it was like before. Didn't Atlus just pick him up from pixiv when looking for a cheap artist for the game?

I like most of his early art, it reminds me of old promo pics for comedy manga.

Looks fine to me. I think that distinct EO style we know today started at EO3, though the earlier tittles still have some charm to them

His older work did have an "edge" that has softened up lately. But I think I prefer his newer style if only for the improvements on anatomy and coloring.
If he loses that hard black shading on class portraits any time soon though i'm gonna riot.

Do consider that is official media used for merch and the former pic was just a casual pic that looks like it was drawn quicker, with little detail compared to that.
Also sometimes pics aren't uploaded immediately after an artist draws them, especially when he wasn't as big as he is today and how few of his non-official drawings get uploaded compared to other artists (especially his doujin, which is sad).

The art in question is not consistent with any other of his art at the time, he already had a distinct style

Almost finished SJ, besides the dark rooms I really enjoy the dungeons. Guessing it's similar with drawing it in and different combat? I have IV but I kept busy with other games.

>>383984751
It's still not impossible that he had drawn the images, whether by whim or simply uploading them years after he drew them after he had forgotten them, which is not unheard of, or some other such circumstance. There's no other artist that any source can provide and he is consistently matched with it.

Sounds pretty boring tbqh, I play EO for the mapping and boss battles/late stratum wild encounters. Action RPGs are kind of meh, unless it had map making too, then count me in.

maybe you should kill yourself

The best Part: You getting payd for it when you are in Europe.
>>
>>383985567
>unless it had map making too
Once you arrive in France and settle in the Calais jungle the game becomes more of a map building/resource management sim where you have to gather resources by going in to the nearby city to rob people and commit burglaries so that you can rebuild the section of the Jungle that was destroyed before your arrival.
>>
>>383985412

I assume you're talking about whatever political vomit has recently graced the news, but a map building sim based on gathering resources via hostile incursion would be moderately entertaining if not generic.
But that's not what I mean anyway, I enjoy drawing out the maps of an area, not city building sims or resource management conquest sims, I've played way too many of those on PC when I was younger.

EO4 is structured a bit differently from the rest, but is the easiest and most balanced, so that's a good start. It's still a great game. Play it in parallel with EOU2 classic mode, in my opinion.

I can't even reclass/CC to make them human?

Actually you can reclass them, but each race has base stats that are suited to the classes available to them and don't change when you reclass. Alternatively, you can use nothing but DLC portraits
>>
>>383987872
Dunno if there's reclassing, I haven't been following this game very closely. I know the class-race combos are fixed, and subclassing is replaced by class specializations, and that you can select the generic race portrait for characters instead of their class portrait.

EO3 is arguably the best starting place overall, and allows you to enjoy the later QoL advancements in the series.
EO4 is if you're casual as fuck and need a really easy in for the series.
EOU2 is the best game overall that's currently released, but starting here makes going backwards nearly insufferable.
