Guys I'm really worried we won't see a EO6 after Atlus is done producing for the 3ds. Even if they abandoned the mapping entirely I'd still love a EO6 just for the combat and OST alone. What do you guys genuinely think the future of the franchise is? It seems to be selling pretty well.

金ソド confused enough boners that some people just went "fuck it, nothing explicitly says it's a dude so it can be a girl if I want". As a result, some artists started either being ambiguous or just outright drawing 金ソド子 instead, which suits me fine.

Those are Pixiv tags, by the way, because I guess they have their own nicknames for certain characters.

War Magus wants Hexer to get reliable access to ailments.
And Dark Hunter really, really wants Hexer to get all binds up.

War Magus' Ailing Slash and Dark Hunter's Ecstasy are among the strongest skills in the game.


Don't take a Ronin in EO2U - they are probably the weakest class.
Their damage is not all that high to begin with, they need to set up Stances to do anything (which takes a turn - and they fall off after a while) and they are the only damage class whose Force Boost does not increase their damage.

I get that this is something that came up with EOU. Haven't played it and it still wouldn't change much from how a character looks. They kept the design you can't call the whole "chibi artsyles" argument when there is a perfectly reasonable adult male standing next to what looks like three kids. I'm not even slamming the game. It's just that there are characters designed like children, that's just a facet of this series.

You have very little synergy and you won't be able to go past the second stratum because elemental negation is the key to many boss fights. You might need to pick up Grimoires for that and put them on the Sovereign.

I like the stories. I don't roleplay a whole guild because I usually just run two teams at most, but I do form impressions for what my guild members act like and how they interact with each other.

usually based on who synergizes with who like a Landsknect and Alchemist being bros because of the former's chaser abilities.

the story is pretty nice first go round yea

I try to play out guild member personalities but it's kinda hard when there's nothing to go off of outside choosewhodoeswhat events for my uncreative brain

I wish that there was an in-day calendar with made-up holidays and you could note each day, like say so-and-so's birthday on Emperor 1. Or you could just write whatever, I'd still like to be able to view a calendar in-game beyond simply being told what month/day it is without the context of what part of the year that is barring a self-made thing that'd take I don't know how long to make.

So you want to remove a primary defense and healing? Just put points into bandage so you can heal out of combat and carry healing items into combat. You will be bleeding a lot of money early game because of this.

In EO does the Blazer and other chaser skills from Landsketch activate when you make an auto-attack inbuded with an element from Troubadour?

And are those attacks enough to trigger conditional drops like Insect Eyes from the butterflies?
>>
>>186647187
First thing, yes. Second one, I don't remember in the original, but in the remakes it had to be strictly a non-physical elemental move.
>>
>>186648615
I see, do they work with attacks made by the Landsketch himself?
Like Landsketch uses Blazer, Troubador imbues hi with fire, the Landsketch uses fire imbuded standard attack. Will that be followed by the Blazer hit or does it have to be another character doing it like the Protector (Survivalist feels like a waste cause of Multi-hit+Apolon)?
>>
>>186649056
Chasers aren't buffs, so they work only on the turn you use them, meaning that you can't activate them with your own Landsknecht.
>>
>>186643885
Try it out and document your results. 4katanas are highly delicate and need protection all the time.
Maybe give it only 3 or 2 swords and some armor. Mine has 3 and a breastplate and she can survive an attack, sometimes

>>186627390
Yes. The Charged Elementals are a big TP intensive for the beginning so maybe use the Rounds at first - but only bring them up to the level needed for the Charged ones.
A Point Blank into Burst Shot is a great move - just a bit risky since you have no tank.

Also your general lack of tank means you need to rely on control even more - ail and bind everything or else you will die. At least on Expert.
>>
>>186638639
At which difficulty?
Sovereign up front should have taken way too much damage from any physical source.
Their heavy armor and shield means very little in 2U, their low VIT is way more important.
>>
>>186643889
Princess/X might be enough for healing although you will have trouble cleansing stuff.

I would not recommend going without a Hoplite. The physical damage in the first stratum is enough to nearly kill unguarded Gladiators so every other frontliner will get turned into paste regularely.
And then elemental attacks start coming out which hurt even more.

If you really want it... maybe a mixture of Princess defence buff and Zodiac Prophecies might keep you alive?
>>
>>186652612
Kind of telling that Gunner needs a Jack Frost ball so you recognize her.
But only because no artist ever draws her eyes like they are in the game. They always use normal eyes instead of her baggy ones that make her look like she is constantly crying.

Still running a
>Land/Dancer/Night
>Fortress/Medic
party in Eo4. First fight against the Berserker King got my party pasted.

I probably need to upgrade the armor, but is there a better party to be running for the game in general, or is it doable with just these?

Everyone has Proficiency.
>Land: A point in Vanguard and Power Boost, 4 points in Freeze Link, 1 in Blaze Link
>Dancer: 3 points in Attack Tango, 3 in Counter Samba, 3 in Fan Dance, 2 in Chase Samba
>Night: 4 Ice Knife, 4 Sand Throw, 2 Blade Flurry, 2 Shadow Cloak
>Fort: 1 Ally Shield, 4 Strike Guard, 1 Element Guard, 2 Taunt, 2 Auto-Taunt, 2 Iron Wall
>Medic: 4 Healing, 4 Line Heal, 2 Refresh, 2 Patch Up

have to admit, seeing Bloodbears as the normal FOE on B3 after the boss fight was quite a scare. Especially when the first one I saw was a rare breed. Fastest I've ever noped the fuck out of a dungeon so far.
>>
>>186689996
Did you engage the Berzerker King from behind?

As for a Party suggestion: EOIV rewards going rather offensively - Fortress and Medic is often overkill.
And since you have so many frontliners, Fortress is not that strong in the long run...

My advice would be to push on with your party to the end of the second maze.
There you will get the first unlockable class as well as two scrolls that each let you instantly level a character to 25.
Then kick both your Medic and your Fortress out and take a Runemaster and the first unlockable class who can both get one of these scrolls.
At this point you can also rest your Dancer to be focussed more on Waltzes and Tangos as Sambas fall off pretty hard as the game goes on (but they are fine for now).

The unlockable class is a control class with some support capabilites - so you defence would be lockdown and passive healing with options to active healing in both Dancer and the new class.


Or you could swap the Landy for a Runemaster right now and swap Medic for the first unlockable class later for a more traditional approach.
>>
>>186689996
Did you like the boss theme against the red bear?

Oh right, what level are you? Level is actually pretty significant in EO so grinding a few more levels usually helps a ton.
>>
>>186690983
>Did you engage the Berzerker King from behind?
Yeah, as soon as I saw the 2 Bloodbears, I had a feeling they'd probably charge at me as soon as the fight started(I read EO2 's first major boss had a similar gimmick a while back). So I ran from one Bloodbear until I found another route.

My current strategy is typically
>Land: Vanguard and spam Freezing Link
>Dancer: Attack Tango and Counter Samba, then attack until one is about to run out
>Night: Spam Sand Attack until it blinds, then punch the enemy in question to death. Has 2 3-rank Poison Swords equipped.
>Fortress: Strike Guard and Taunt, Ally Guard low health allies so the Medic can heal them, auto attack if there's nothing else to be done.
>Medic: Just spam heals

When Burst comes up, if the enemy has an ailment, I'll have the Nightseeker use Double Strike. If not, the the Land does it, though for this fight I save it for the defensive buff when the BK starts charging.

>>186691038
>Oh right, what level are you?
Entire party just hit level 12 while I was fighting some FOEs I hadn't gotten around to taking out, most notably the Cutters.
>>
>>186691548
Should be closer to 15 for an easier time.
>>
>>186691548
Your strategy is sound.

Have you done all quests? You are a bit underleveled.
>>
>>186692461
Yep, at least I don't have any new quests in either the bar or the count's office. I haven't been grinding all that much however, which might be part of the issue, and I tend to run away from most fights when I'm just exploring. I'll grind up a bit, I can at the very least fight every FOE pretty easily up to the Cutters. I could probably take on the Kangaroos outside, but my first fight had one punch my Land for 150+ damage and that was that. The poison from the ebony carrots only helped so much there.

Most random encounters aren't too bad, though the Deathstalkers are still a bit dicey.
>>
Do either IV or V have classes with "command" skill like the Shogun from III? Stuff like Fusillade and Blitz Command
>>
>>186692745
>I tend to run away from most fights when I'm just exploring.
That is your problem.
You should only run if you are about to die. XP balancing is usually pretty tight in EO games and personally I don't feel like you run into too many encounters but that might just be preference.

As opposed to many other RPGs you really need the XP, material and gold for selling said material in EO.

You could go a bit FOE hunting now but you might need some normal grinding as well since you ran away too often.
>>
>>186692746
Dancer im EOIV has Trick Samba that causes allies in their line to attack whenever they do.
They also have Beat Dance which causes the entire group to attack one enemy.

In EOV Necros command their ghosts and Rovers their pets.
And Dodge Fencers have Pile On that causes the entire party to counter once when the Fencer evades this turn.

I'm lost on how to build my party in EOU Classic. It's Landshark/Ronin/Hexer/Troubadour/Survivalist.

I sort of understand that the Landshark is supposed to be a guy who just shreds through normal encounters by abusing chasers, but besides that I'm lost in what skills to actually spec into.

I don't understand the point in specializing in more than one stance for Ronin. Shouldn't I just do one (I'm currently using the evade stance in order to synergize with the Land's ability that reduces DEF im exchange for attack) and then just put the rest of my points into attack skills?

Hexer is really fucking good, but I don't understand why I'd bother with anything that isn't Evil Eye and the skill that makes bosses hit themselves. And binds, of course.

Troubadour is just giving me trouble because he's entirely about buffs, which is cool, but then at best I'm using two of the buffs in order not to cancel out my Ronin's stances.

Survivalist just seems like she has too many useless skills. What the fuck am I ever going to do with three gathering skills?
>>
>>186696671
Survivalist is pretty mediocre yeah. Might want to swap em for an Alchemist. I'm surprised your doing fine without a protector or medic, expert difficulty right?
>>
>>186697324
Expert, yeah. This is actually my second run through, I did Story Mode first. I told myself I wouldn't use any of the classes I already used in that run though, so no Medic/Alchemist/Protector.
>>
>>186696671
Landy:
You do not have a Chaser party. Your only source of elemental damage is Ronin or normal attacks of people buffed by your Troub.
Using normal attacks is baaaad.
My advice: Go sword. Raging Edge is a solid skill all game through and Falcon slash is a good encounter clear.
If you keep your Troub you will run out of things to put points into since War Cry is less useful with a dedicated buff character.

Ronin:
Specialize in one Stance until later in the game when you go for Peerless Stance.
Drawing Stance is ok but you will rarely if ever actually evade.
Personally I am in favor of Upper Stance just because Ronin is all about damage anyways.

Hexer:
Whenever you inflict an ailment or bind on an enemy they become more resistant to it for yeveral turns (between 8 and 10 is what I heard). So if you inflict fear and it falls off it will be harder to get it to stick again.
The infliction rate for panic or blind will not be changed however - that's why you have multiple ailments at your disposal.

Troub:
Use two party wide buffs and any Prelude for your Landy (and any other attacking party member).
Preludes change the element of the normal attack while also applying a generic damage buff. The elemental change does not work on skills, the damage buff does.
Taboo Rondo can increase buff duration - including Ronin Stances.
If you still have some Front Guard or Wall Grimoires from Raquna lying around your Troub could use them when they have nothing else to do.

Survivalist:
Efficiency. Survivalist is a healer that uses items. Their damage skills are... there but really nothing great. More a bonus to their true calling of throwing Medicas at people.
They also have some support skills but with a Troub you will likely not want to use any Survivalist buffs. Maybe debuffing enemy accuracy is enough for your Ronin to actually evade if you stay with Drawing Stance?

>shreds through normal encounters by abusing chasers
Not really, chasers are single target and your party isn't very good at feeding chases. For random encoutners you'll want multi-target/multi-hit skils.

>ronin
One point into your stances of choice will suffice, yes. Later on you will want to level them as you can get them to last 5 turns. As for purely physical attacks, the only one I bother pumping is swallow strike

>I don't understand why I'd bother with anything that isn't Evil Eye and the skill that makes bosses hit themselves
1.different monsters have resistances to different ailments, so if it's immune to fear, you're fucked
2.resistances build up as you inflict them. Once you get fear to stick, the next time will be harder

>but then at best I'm using two of the buffs in order not to cancel out my Ronin's stances
Most buffs are useless anyway. You main buffs will be warrior song, fantasias and shelter song, in that order. Holy gift and restful tune will make your life easier (and so you can opt to learn frightful yawl) and endgame you'll want taboo rondo. Their healing skills are situational but useful too if you can predict turns light on monster offensive.
Of course this means they have a lot of free turns. For these, you could try to go with chip damage or ailment weapons (troubs have hexer-tier LUC), or get some grimoires either for attacking skills or healing (the latter is what I usually go with). If you can get a wolf pack grimoire from Fenrir, troub will be your guy to use it.

>What the fuck am I ever going to do with three gathering skills?
Make a gathering party or something. Survivalist is the worst class in th game. You can try to do some damage with multi-shot and sagittarius shot, but it's not great. Greatly specialized builds can make use of their AGI tree but that might be a bit above you (and me) for now.
In the end, the best use I got out of survivalist is as a healer with efficiency and somas.

Thank you for the advice as well.

I'll probably go grinding for a Fenrir Grimoire now, considering how stupidly good that skill sounds.
>>
>>186699057
Don't bother grinding king grimoires until late in the game, killing bosses around your level and adjusting guild card digits is too painful so early.
>>
>>186699276
Even if I've technically beaten it once before? Does that not carry over?
>>
>>186699470
Carry what over? King grimoires are purely chance based and the only way to increase your odds is by aligning numbers. Your only option is kill it again and again until it happens.

I had a little hard time in beginning of EO1 but easier late game and its the only one where I did post-game sanctum and defeated "true" last boss. I had little problems with beginning of EO2, harder mid-game and easy late-game. I had balanced difficulty in EO3 with finding Progenitor boss easy.

However, I was having problems with late-game of EO IV and found Heavenbringer really hard (on normal) until I switched from balanced to heavy dps party.

How is that possible, if everyone says that IV is easiest? Please explain.

I dont knowmate, I thought that Fort/Dancer, sword Shark/Bushi, NS/Arcanist, Medic/Arcanist and RM/Bushi was nice. But simply switching NS to Imp/Bushi and M/A to A/M and suddenly fight went smooth.

Main Medic is a bit underwhelming - and if NS has trouble with any fight it is probably that one. Especially if there is no Arcanist to reset resistances.
Other than that your initial party looked solid enough.

alright, thanks to many anons guidance in these threads I've gotten the hang of my party and such in Untold. I don't know if it was the right choice but this has been a blast as my first EO game. That said I'm getting a shit load of these grimoires but is there really no easy way to dispose of unneeded ones in untold 1? I may be misunderstanding the purpose here, but I'm getting a good number of 1 slot grimoires with abilities I just have no use for and all it lets me do is combine it with another one. seems inneficient unless there's another use for these things.
>>
>>186708119
Hmm there should be a way to permanently get rid of them as there is a limit to how many you can have.

The way it works is later on you'll get mroe stones with multiple skill slots and then you can combine those ones with the single skill ones to get 2 or more good skills on 1 stone.

And of course later on you start getting/seeing the use of certain skills on other members like healing grimoires on a dancer or a passive buff/debuff. You can ignore them as well though as a decent party will hold you over pretty wel regardless.
>>
>>186708803
fair, though I'm more talking about skills that party members I have can already get, but I've been told they are really best to ignore anyways. that said does a skill like tp up on a grimiore stack with tp on the character?

Some passives stack, other's don't.
I believe TP Up stacks but I'm not sure - you could it easily test yourself if you have a character with TP Up and a Grimoire.

As far as trash Grimoires go: When fusing Grimoires you need three to make one new one.
The first says how many slots the new one has.
The first and second give you the selection of skills that can be in those slots.
And the third gives you the ability to wield a weapon.

Since the third is the least important outside of really limited builds you can just use trash Grimoires as fodder.
Of course a shield has a bit of worth for classes that can't normally wield them since those are usually better than helmets, gloves or boots - so maybe keep your trash with shields until you make some better grimoires you will use for a while.

DarkHunter/Dancer/Protector Alchemist/Medic

>>
>>186722627
I never used an actual Alchemist in EOU2 but I remember that the Palm skills were worth using as a War Magus prior to Ailing Slash(s), perhaps that's the direction you should take your Alchemist?

If you wanna Cheese the game drop Medic for Hexer so that your DH, Troub (Dancer), and Hexer can blow things up.

Or drop Medic for War Magus aiming towards a Ailing Slash/Vampire Build (pick up war heal and war revive though).

I found that a level 1 war revive was all I needed for EOU2. I don't know if Medic has any worthwhile damage skills.
>>
>>186722346

>>186723873
I'll say it again just to for the sake of making a stronger impact, War revive is ridiculously good. War Heal wasn't a sloucher either before my War Magus went full time damage dealer.

>>186722627
If you don't want to drop medic, don't be afraid to put the bare minimum in the healing skills to be sufficient for your party's upkeep
Put the extra points into the damage tree, it's not quite as strong as War Magus, but it's seemingly solid.

Since people don't seem to realize you're playing EOU1.
Your main problem is that you have 3 support classes and only 2 damage dealers.
To make up for this fact, Max out Warrior Song on Troubadour and start maxing out the Fantasia's for your Alchemist. After that start rushing towards Peace Ballad to keep up the TP output since you're gonna need to max out skills on both your DH and Alchemist to keep the damage up.
With Alchemist, rush out Analysis. Its outright broken in EOU as well as Dilution.
With Dark hunter, max out Viper and then start working towards binds to keep up the shutdown.
With Medic, keep up the healing and with Protector just overall frontline shield and elemental shields.

Other than outright removing either Troubadour or Medic for a another damage type class, good luck and be super offensive.

>>
>>186731391
I think you might have a bit of a problem defensively since you don't have a dragoon or botanist and the necro/shaman heals are quite limited. Mid to late game should be fine but early on it'll be quite rough.

I got through EO2U early game with a DH who could only do regular attacks or single binds, a WM who couldn't give support via Ailing Slash/Artery, and a Hexer who could only reliably land Poison.
Can't be that bad.

I only picked Shaman over Botanist because I liked Sovereign's "heal while buffing" gimmick, I can go with Herbalist if it's that important.
By the way, can the Necro heals/revives be used outside of battle?

If you have some Medic Grimoires left over from Story slap them on your Troub (and maybe some on your Hexer just to be sure) and you should have no trouble.

Your Hexer is also a good candidate for some Alchemist Grimoires especially those that can be used to clear encounters (once their TP get high enough).
In EOU TEC is more important than LUC for infliction so feeding Hexer TEC is best.

If you played EO2U before keep in mind that Hexer + DH is not as utterly broken in EOU.
Infliction is harder and there is no Trance to break the game in half.

Your Ronin is going to need to pull a lot of weight either way so make sure to get either Flame Grater or Frigid Slash otherwise Alchemist Grimoires are your only way to clear encounters..

Afaik all months are always 28 days long which makes tracking FOE and boss respawns easiers since they are 7 and 14 days respectively.

That's literally the EO2U meme party. (Or at least one of them - the other revolves around Fafnir.)

Ecstasy with proper buffs, Trance and Crusade will one-shot bosses up to the post-game.
Only one boss resists almost all ailments and binds - and you can cause that one to blow herself up.

Also the Beast does not benefit from being in the backline if it takes hits for other people - it's always treated as being in the front in that case.

No she can go off her pattern if she so pleases after awhile. Like in my example, she did an auto attack and then 2 Piercing Shells in a row, in which I thought she was gonna do Ice Shave but she caught me off guard.
Plus even eating Leg Bind Resist up food, you can get RNG fucked so hard as it still has a slight chance of binding someone. Plus of course Six Sins and what Aliment and what person she'll decide to fuck up.
While I'm just mad atm, she is one of the more RNG bosses where if you fail to guess her next move, she can wipe your whole team easily next move as almost all her moves are 1 hit KO if you don't pick the right shield.

In EO2U infliction is really reliable.
First off, it's only based on LUC, not TEC anymore.
Hexer has a lot of LUC and there is a LUC +10 staff rather early on.

Also Curse Mastery increases infliction rate, there is a new passive with Curb Atk Up that increases infliction rate - and most importantly the Hexer's Force Boost is a three turn buff (that does not take a turn to activate) that tripples infliction chance.

It is really easy to get stuff to stick. If you use the Highlander's Stigmata skill on a Grimoire (which does not even need an actual Highlander since you can now trade for Grimoires) you can fully bind most bosses in one turn. It is pretty crazy.

Also Beast is a fine tank but you should just not expect to cut all melee damage in half just by putting them in the back line.

How is the beast vs protector for tanking?
>>
>>186768616
Beast actually tanks and has some trouble with elemental damage - although Troub can help with that (or the Gentle Toad DLC since Beasts can wear both their collar and Bikini Armor that cuts elemental damage in half).
Compared to Fortresses they have much bigger dmaage reduction on their skills.

Protector does not tank but reduces damage taken. Their Walls are really useful to completely negate the massive elemental blasts that bosses love to shit out in this game.

But I uses a Beast and it went just fine. With a proper lockdown party I prefer Beast since you always know who will get hit.
Just make sure to give them as much VIT and HP as possible. Even on their weapon since they won't do all that much attacking.

The elemental walls no longer exist.
They all got rolled into one skill that reduces elemental damage on the party for up to 67%.

Dragoons are not that essential as long as you have other defensive means. Shaman can increase DEF, defensive Shaman can increase HP as can healing Botanist via Overheal (which this time around is a passive instead of a charge skill).

Dodge Fencer can dodge tank but that's of course not great against line and party targeted skills since they don't draw hits toward them like a Beast with Hit-Taker but only draw aggro like Provoke on steroids.

Necro can have their ghosts tank but unless you want to cheese everything with 9999HP ghosts they are underwhelming. And even those ghosts can only be gotten in the 4th stratum - and you would have to walk from there since floor jump only exists when entering the labyrinth.

Binds and ailments are of course as good at surpressing enemies as ever.
Fear no longer exists but petrified is now an actual ailment that falls off, lets the petrified character do nothing and cuts physical damage against the petrified character in half.
Also there is no central bind/ailment character like Hexer/Wildling/Arcanist.

Thanks for the in-depth reply.
From the looks of it, my only party members with defensive options will be the Necro and Shaman, but the former isn't even supposed to be offensive.
Seems to me like the party I have planned out is a giant glass cannon, with 4 offensive characters and no form of defense at all.
>>
>>186772650
There is some pain coming your way.
Monsters hit hard as always and especially in the beginning have slightly higher HP pools.
Bosses don't have the bloat of EO2U but it will probably still take a while for your party to stabilize.

That being said, EOV is closer to EOIV than the Untolds in difficulty so the chances of it working out aren't too bad.

By the way, any Celestrian (Lunarian, elf) has acces to a Union skill (similar to Burstskills from EOIV) that tries to fully bind an enemy.
Many Union skills are pretty nice so it pays off to have at least one character of every race.

Right I need some healing grimoires in EOU. Should I just rest my medic and only put points into cure so it's maxed out then go enemy slaying before resting again and putting points into a different skill? I only really need Cure/Revive and maybe Salve.

Just put points in all the skills you actually want to get Grimoires off and use the skills when a Grimoire Chance occurs.

What does a sovereign even do and are they worth it over troubadour at all?
>>
>>186775302
A Sovereign is pretty much a better Medic, because of being able to both buff and heal.
Troubadour's buffs are more powerful, but they miss out on defensive buffs and healing.
Yes they're similar, but what you'll need really depends on the rest of your team.
>>
Anyone else want to kiss and lick those cute etrian girl tummies? Seeing them exposed over the years have ruined me.
>>
>>186775302
Sovereign can heal fully on their own with Protect Order and order Mastery.
They can prevent ailments with Prevent Order.

Their Link Order and Link Order II are quite strong damage skills.
You have to have the targeted enemy get hit by an elemental attack for them to go off but they copy a portion of the skill that activates them and puts a bit more damage on top.
So if you have an Alchemist (or Fafnir) on steriods they can give a huge secondary blast.

They are more of a hybrid character whereas Troub and their ability to get around dimnishing returns (which are massive in EO2U) are damage boost powerhouses.
>>
>>186772454
how is the hound for tanking?
>>
>>186776712
The dog can protect a single party member and take increased damage.
While pets are strong enough to not constantly explode normally the dog can't really take too much punishment this way.
It is better suited to heal by licking people.

Woah lad, I have no friggin' idea of what most of this is or does. Time to google me some guides to study. Is the rest of the game as confusing as the character creation?
I guess all of this is perhaps explained in the digital manual but it breaks when i try to open it.

Elminage is closer to Wizardry than EO.
Wizardry is all about cryptic shit.

>>
>>186777334
Ever played post-game of EOIII?
No map zones, tiles that turn you in random directions, invisible pit-falls - that's the kind of stuff Wizardy loves.
Not sure if dungeons in Elminage are that way but if the character creator is prime Wizardry I don't see them being much different.
>>
>>186695889
I'm not sure I get the joke. I tried at level 12 multiple times and there's no way that's happening. Even outfitted with the best armors and weapons I have on me he's still hjitting way too hard and not taking enough damage for level 12 to be viable.

Got him down to 1/4 at level 13, but then he started spamming Ruinous Strike over and over again and it was literally impossible for me to keep up in healing. Then half my party was dead, he started charging up, and I just turned the game off because my party as getting one-shot there and nothing I could do about it.

Granted, I only ran into such situation during ambushes (local way to get items - you sit up in certain zones in dungeon and select option to wait for groups of stronger enemies carrying random chests of loot) but I have a feeling that they will be frequent in late-game.

Oh and Imagine if EO had randomly appearing enemies from upper floors or even sanctums. In Stranger, tutorial area can spawn randomly guys from dungeon below that is designed for characters of levels 15+ and of course, brutally deals with your party unless you run. Have fun.

also in EOU1 wtf do the fantasia and elemental buff skills do? do they work with analysis?
>>
>>186781547
Preludes give your normal attack their element but not any skills. They do however apply a generic damage buff which works on everything.
Since they are a generic damage buff they circumvent the normal diminishing returns of buffs - but those are not that strong in EOU, only in EO2U are they truely crazy.

The Fantasias meanwhile modify resistances directly. 30% at 10, 40% at 15.
The important thing: those modifications work additively.
So if an enemy usually takes 100% in damage is becomes 130% with a Fantasia 10. So far so normal.
Now if they take 150% normally it becomes 180% - which is less than a 30% increase.
It's mroe interesting for things that slightly resist stuff - 75% becomes 105% which is an increase of 40% damage.
But more importantly: anything above 100% counts as a weakness and thus interacts with Analysis.
So enemies that are usually slightly resistant or neutral to an element suddenly count as weak to it and the massive Analysis boost gets unloaded at them.

Btw. there is no way to tell how resistant an enemy is exactly. It could be 25%, 50% or 75% - the notation in the codex always looks the same.

And yes, the Fantasias make it so dragons can take their own element as damage - it's 30% (or 40%) instead of 0%.
Still not great but maybe a way to get their conditional drop if you have no mixed elemental attacks?
>>

The only thing that is locked behind story is Fafnir. You can complete the codex and explore Ginnungagap in classic just fine.

So have you ever tried to visualise the Labyrinth? I can't wrap my head around there being a 25 floor dungeon that goes from forest to jungle, rainforest desert then shinjuku VERTICALLY. It makes a lot more sense if you think about it as being like in EOIV with Shinjuku being at the base of Yggdrasil and the stratum going outwards and slightly higher up as you get further away.

So imagine a mountain /\ but only one half so /. Etria is at the top and Yggrdasil at the base. As you go lower you get closer to Yggdrasil with Shinjuku right at the bottom, mostly covered by the greenery.

The Etrian tree is note one tree but an entire Forest. The floors are their interlocked branches that other plants grow on in return.
The entire land around Etria is held up by those trees.

The second stratum is humid and the fourth dry because the third stratum is blocking the rain water. Maybe that was by design to preserve Shinjuki or there were just more branches that grew more stuff blocking the water.

I have always equated the first labyrinth to aspects of Naussica of the Valley of the Wind with how the toxic forest worked.

Lost Shinjuku is at the trunk of the tree so it wasn't affected by the unique environments, in a way it is frozen in time and preserved.

The Sandy Barrens represents the oldest layers of the tree, everything has eroded and all of the toxins from the environment have been sifted here. At one point it was capable of sustaining life as the withered trunks and scattered plants indicate, but enough time and the growth of the tree has taken that away.

Azure Rainforest is a collection basin and the crystaline trees are on their way to becoming another sandy barren themselves given enough centuries. Because the plants are not absorbing as much water as a normal forest wood it collects into these massive pools.

The Primitive Jungle is the result of a forest that benefits from the water not absorbed by the third layer so it could afford to be more wild in it's growth. That is why the forest is more lush and sports a wider variety of plants.

Finally the Emerald Grove, it's the normal state of the tree. Exposed to the outer elements more than others, and not close enough to the Azure Rainforest to suck in an excess of nutrients the tree is a normal deciduous tree and this layer acts as a protective dome for the rest of the tree as it acts as the land you are even standing on in the main town.

The main thing is that each layer you go down you are witnessing the gradual decline of the tree. It starts out lush but starts to show it's age and fossilize eventually reducing itself to dust and sand.

Problem is, if that happened we wouldn't have the Yggdrasil Core. Or it would reside two strata earlier.

Shift it to the sixth then. I never did the post game for Etrian Odyssey 1. Sandy Barrens just becomes a nutrient sapped area.

If you could change something lore wise about any of the games (aside from V) what would it be? I totally thought the super powerful animals in the Labyrinth would be explained by genetic engineering and mutations gone wrong. It would've tied into the whole science out of control thing they have going in the first game.

Regarding the actual apocalypse, I would've had some large scale war possibly nuclear or pseudonuclear be the main event rather than....pollution? Humanity destroying itself through war and science (anti nature) and said nature taking back what was once it's own is a nice theme.

EO3 is pretty insane but I'm not sure if it would be a good idea to give the big tentacle monster (fuck I can't remember his name) a tangible motive since they went for the whole Lovecraft-esque non comprehendable Great One route. I just struggle to understand its goal other than conquer planet to planet for the sake of it which might be the whole point admittedly.

It's supposed to be a message about contamination, climate change and all that, not childish leaders throwing nukes.
Shit we do every day without even noticing not one single cliche event.
>>
>>186822997
Yeah but it falls apart when you consider the game literally telling you the huge tree became evil after absorbing the pollution and is also able to do what is essentially magic. That's just retarded and kind of undermines the whole environmental impact thing it tries to say.

Other good questions include "How can we breathe on any Stratum in EOIII past Stratum 1?", "Why is there so much light on literally any Stratum after Stratum 1 (in any EO)?" and "Why is there magic in here?".

At least in EOIV it was vaguely understandable, as the stratums weren't stacked on top of each other.

You can't have the glass cannons to end all glass cannons and then not make up for their squishiness by other characters.

That Formaldehyde was a bit of a waste - but they are easy to get so it's not that bad.

His condition is defeating him in one turn which is pretty damn easy way later in the game.
And you can not craft what the conditional drop unlocks for quite a while.

As I said: Not a huge issue (especially since boss conditionals are often cryptic as fuck).

>>186855103

Wait like ten levels before engaging them.
Golem is a boss for way later and I have no idea why they give you his quest so early.

Even worse are the other two quests like him - they are post-game bosses that you should not take on until you reached the 6th Stratum.

Just one of the dumb things about EOU.
>>
>>186848249
It takes an entire day to reach Gladsheim when you don't teleport.
I am sure it is outside of Yggdrasils radius - probably so it does not get blown up when Gungnir is fired.

>I have no idea why they give you his quest so early.
Trap quests. There is that one in EO3 where stupid Ricky got her party killed.
>>
>>186855160
Iirc it started in EOIII that you needed post-game drops to craft what boss conditionals unlock.

Before that you could get really good gear way too early which trivialized large parts of the game.
But of course you wouldn't know beforehand how good the thing you unlock truely is - and all other conditionals from random encounters and FOEs can be used right then and there...
>>
>>186855342
I felt that Ant Queen was easier to defeat than Golem.
Unless I remember very wrong I managed to kill it while on the same Stratum I got the quest in.

But then again, EOIII is way less balanced than EOU so getting the drop on enemies is easier.

They are still a defensive class so while they can contribute damage it will not be on the same level as a proper damage class - which is only fair.

Their greatest asset is their ability to passively summon Pillboxes. Or actively if the enemy is properly controlled.
Since Pillboxes draw aggro and counterattack line targeted skills can get the enemy shot quite a few times - and the counters aren't even that weak.

But those counters are not that great for Sanzu as it sounds since Sanzu chases enemies as well.
So if the enemy attacks your Pillbox so will your Masurao. But I'm not sure if that causes your Pillbox to counter your Masurao which causes them to hit themselves.
Generally you want to use up your Sanzu charges before the enemy acts.

There is also a video of a Ninja one-shotting the final post-game boss of EOIII.
The power of math is always crazy in EO but that is not really a good indicator of how a class performs in an actual party that takes them on a proper exploration.

Offensive Dragoon is still good - but not because of the one skill with a massive multiplier you will likely never use in a party.

>most stuff is just doing shit people did earlier better
Welcome to technology.
>>
>>186876327
Focus on one stance and take either Upper Stance or Drawing Stance. Not only is Clear Stance not that good (Ronin will never be able to take too many hits) its skills are also the worst.
Upper Stance not only gives you an attack bonus but also has the stronger skills.

First focus on getting Horse Slash or Beheading Cut as your cheaper main stay, get Flame Grater or Frigid Slash for elemental coverage and area damage and once both of those are nearing level 10 work on Swallow Strike or Charging Slash.

Afterwards you can build towards Peerless Stance for an even greater bonus. Just use it at the last turn of your normal stance to get the maximum duration out of both (unless you have a Troubadour who can make your Stances last indefinitely).
At this point you can spread out and take other skills that look interesting since Peerless Stance allows you to use all Stance skills.

Only now it's something that actually works and that pretty much anyone not homeless can afford. Proper food conservation is no small task when it comes to economy and health.

Been making my way through EOII for the NDS and I have a question. Since the game removed the XP gain from FOE encounters, what are some reliable wayt to level up post 1st stratum?

I have a single party right now of DH/P/WM in th front, and M/T in the back. I'm not one for optimizing parties but since this is my first time through the game I was just dropping points into stuff and didn't plan my progression. Now I realize I want to add a Back row Hexer in place of a medic, have begun switching the War Magus from a War Edge ailment build to a hybrid so I can still have heals but also capitalize in the ailment slashes to help the Dark Hunter get her stuff off.

My party also lacks elemental damage and I'm not sure if I want to convert my Troubadour over to a buff build or just get an alchemist. I know I should manage against the Chimera with my current team, but once I make it into the second stratum I am going to shuffle up my formations and start up a B team as well.

tl;dr; Where can I farm to get people back up to a respectable level?
>>
>>186895479
>Since the game removed the XP gain from FOE encounters, what are some reliable wayt to level up post 1st stratum?
Bosses.
If you are along far enough you should be able to kill the first boss with four people and one member to get XP - just make sure they don't die.

Also Alchemist falls off hard after the 4th Stratum - most people use Gunner and Ronin for elemental damage.
>>
>>186895479
>>186895839
You need to reach floor 10 for the first boss to respawn and once you defeat him for the second time he will be on a 14 day cooldown.

Get a level 1 character to sleep at the inn to safe some money.

>>186896619
Why does EU get the shaft with jp games?
>>
>>186897320
They matter more than subclasses did.
>>
>>186897320
Your stats come mostly from your race. Legendary names have some stat bonuses to make their roles more distinct but a bunny Warlock will still have too low INT to be actually useful.
In addition there are racial passives and Union skills (similar to EOIV Burst skills) are bound to race as well.

So yes, they matter a lot.
>>
>>186897339
Well until recently we had a hard time even getting Atlus to release their games here. SMTIV was delayed by a ridiculous amount and ended up being a digital only title in the end for us EU peeps.

The new partnership with DeepSilver has allowed us to consistently get Atlus games within a few weeks of the US release which is pretty good. Stock issues remain a bit hectic but like with SMTIVApocalypse eventually it'll come back in stock.

Thankfully switch is region free so we can just import from now on, though I personally wouldn't expect to see Etrian Odyssey on switch till at least 2022 knowing atlus.

Don't bother. It's impossible to beat the game that way. You might be able to get through the first few stratums by overleveling but when you hit the lvl cap you'll hit a wall that you just can't pass.

Someone of GameFAQs briefly mentioned that there is a Post-game only Cunny Bunny warlock build. I don't check the Japanese build discussions so I can't confirm the claim.

>>186900114
If it's until you hit the level cap he's basically saying "you can be pretty sub-optimal either with over-leveling or tight strategy until you hit the level cap(Post game)". Pretty sure most parties require at least SOME tweaking when you're tackling the post game content.

you still need some means to survive despite lacking a fortress, anon

Just because you don't need a dedicated tank doesn't mean you can scrap their responsibilities completely.

Ailments, binds or the Dancer's defensive Tango all work pretty good.

Dancer does not need to protect the backline since that one takes 50% less melee damage to begin with.

It probably came to be when they were just throwing ideas out to see what sticks.
Like "True Justice for all!" which means exactly nothing or when amnesiac Ricky thinks she knows the Highlander from somewhere but the cured Ricky makes no reference to that.

So they made a house for the players and then didn't think it through that a Mansion would likely have beds.

Please help. I've just started etrian 4 and it's the first that i've played. Still in dungeons of the first area around the city, around level ten and just beat the red furred bear. My party is Fortress, Landsknecht, Dancer in the front, Medic and Nightseeker in the back. The dancer and nightseeker feel like they are not being helpful, underperforming and getting carried by the rest of the party. Dancer mainly just has some weak buffs and heals not nearly as well as medic. Nightseeker maxed the skill to throw sand in enemies eyes and blind them but it just does damage and has never actually inflicted blind.
Am I doing something wrong or should they just get replaced with archers in the back?
>>

>>

>>
>>186931489

Super arranges want you to fear them.
>>
>>186931201
Your Dancer being in the same line as your Land and Fort isn't optimal. Dancer can apply defensive buffs, but they aren't needed since you have a Fort, or they can apply offensive buffs, which only the Land will really benefit from since your Fort will be tanking. As for your Nightseeker, maxing out skills has diminishing returns so often its better to level up multiple skills insteaf of only a few ones. To get the most damage out of them, you want to put some points into their status ailment skills as well as their other attacks, and get dual-wield too. Then I suggest putting your Fort in the backline (He can still protect the frontline with his Guard and Shield skills) and putting your Night on the frontline (to get the buffs from your Dancer and get the most damage for normal attacks and non-throw skills)
>>
>>186931201
Your team actually sounds nice. Dancer is a really great unit, you will start feeling the effects of the buffs the more you level them up and she is a class that, after unlocking subclassing, can stun for days with multiattacks. Can't really say much about Nightseeker but she's one of the only classes that rarely uses subclass skills since her base kit is already amazing. Pair her with an Arcanist after you unlock them and she's lay hell on earth.

Medic is fine, but the heals can be overkill. Popular opinion is to replace them for Arcanist after unlocking them since they work great with Medic subclass. You are lacking on elemental damage, though, so you will have to depend a lot on raw physical damage from your Lands, Dancer and Nightseeker.
>>
>>186931201
>>186932679
Keep the Fortress at the front until TP becomes less of an issue.
Nightseekers deal insane damage to statused targets, but status application is spotty at best in EOIV.
The Dancer's buffs are among the best in the game, and Dancers in particular have exceptional synergy with Landies lategame, but that's not until at least level 40 when you can get Improved Links on your Landy (if you're doing a linking strategy).
Snipers do a ridiculous amount of damage when set up properly, rivalling the output of a Nightseeker or an Imperial but requiring far less help from their team. I actually consider Sniper to be the single best class in EOIV because they bring so much to the team and require so little.

The amount of healing a Medic puts out in EOIV is WAY more than you should ever need. My endgame party is Fort/Land/Dancer // Runemaster/Sniper. While you're progressing through the game you'll need a little more healing than that. I recommend adding an Arcanist to your party after you get to the second stratum (around lvl 25 iirc).
>>
>>186931201
>>186932679
I'm pretty sure the above is solid advice the other thing is that Night Seeker is a late bloomer type class and will more than make up for a weak start later (you can pretty much decide how badly you want to break the game depending on your sub).

In my playthough I used Dancer as my sole healer and replaced it with an Arcanist (or maybe a Bushi, if I still had the Dancer for that long). I'd say follow the above's advice and if you still don't like Dancer much replace it with a Bushi or Arcanist when they become available.

Thinking back, pretty sure I scrapped Dancer for Arcanist and Sniper for Bushi.

Medic and Dancer are a bit redundant - I'd kick one of them out and pikc up a Runemaster for your backline.
Nightseeker could use some LUC equipment or the Icon you can get by helping Kirjonen (the airship with the blue sail that can sometimes be found on the world map).
The one with the red sail gives an accessory that is great on a Fortress if you help them.

Actually Wizardry is bigger in Japan than it is here. Might be worth looking into.

There's Labyrinth of Touhou, which seems to be directly inspired by EO. There's Persona Q of course. I read that 7th Dragon is similar to EO but I've never played it.
>>
>>186966094
They have access to Line Guard and Material Guard (67% less elemental damage for the entire group) just the same.
The stuff defensive Dragoon gets is not even that great - and horribly expensive for a Earthlain Dragoon since that race has the lowest TP.

An offensive Dragoon can be a full-time tank - and they even have the chance to passively summon Pillboxes while defensive Dragoon can summon Bunkers only actively.
>>

The first 7th Dragon is as if EO was a standard RPG instead of a Dungeon Crawler.
All 7th Dragon games after that are totally different.

I don't know if it's rape and I don't know if Highlander would rather be with Raquna, but you cannot deny that Raquna is best girl.

Labyrinth of Touhou has cute girls and a good amount of character customizability, but there's no map drawing and it's not a first person crawler.
I like the second game more, but it's annoying in that most bosses have sky-high def/mdef, so anyone without piercing attacks is usually somewhat inferior.

Whilst probably a bad idea, I was thinking about if there was an Etrian Odyssey style game set before/during/just after the apocalypse.
>first stratum is similar to Lost Shinjuku
>obligatory laboratory dungeon like Gladsheim
>human enemies like salads appear closer to the climax
>possible "stratum" that's a big evil corporation or military base filled with traps
>time skip maybe via cryogenics as the party fails to stop the apocalypse occuring
>final stratum in a twist is a relatively untouched forest like all the other etrian odyssey games first stratum
>game ends with the party putting some failsafe in place to prevent something like this happening again/helping to aid recovery like with terraforming

Could still be monsters or super powerful animals through some crazy genetic engineering/mutations. Eventually could be like Digital Devil Saga where humans themselves can turn into monsters and back. I'd definitely go full horror and have like dead space type enemies in the obligatory laboratory level.

>>186969193
>time skip
but how would I retrace steps for any particular reason?
given you did say style not carbon copy, but still I kinda like being able to go through all the stratums on a whim for any particular reason and if I were to retire a character I hate playing "protect the shmuck" near a bunch of high end enemies while slowly overleveling the rest of the party since having two shmucks to protect typically fucks the party

...I didn't really think about that heh. Maybe I'd make the cryogenic sleep thing more than a plot device. So for new characters/retired characters you'd be "opening" additional cryogenic pods. Maybe even use that to unlock new classes as people of similar specialisations are kept frozen in the same locations. So Hexers are kept at a certain facility/part of the complex that is unlocked after dealing with some security/damage/monster issue.

I wouldn't want free time travel entirely but maybe I'd put a mechanic in place where the pre apocalypse strata are sort of being remembered by the guild in sort of a flashback sort of way. You could "relive" memories using the pods to go back. Items magically appearing from that era and continuity would be a plpt hole that I'd need to work on.

Actually now that I think about it I quite like the idea of the present day being the post apocalypse with the pre apocalypse being remembered through memories as the story progresses. So like
>first stratum is the cryogenic facility with mainly animals
>subsequent ones include the city/evil corp/lab
>climax is in some sort of sacrificial area be that in a spooky way or a "launch the nukes" way
>periodically return to the present day to deal with new threats and get the complex fully functioning

you need to bear in mind that those items require a shopkeeper or something akin to that to be relevant--

actually seems it could function easier if you had two distinct, strictly divorced sets of parties with their own classes, shops, items and other shit

I imagine that'd allow for a significantly higher amount of potential classes/unique playstyles without worrying about plot holes

Genealogy of the Labyrinth - the second party are the frozen children of the first.
Lots of offscreen fugging and potential incest. It is sure to sell like crazy in Nipon.
>>
>>186973153
it'd probably be more interesting if the party in the present was a buncha bronze age primitives discovering old shit of their far distant ancestors

special classes would only unlock for the present party as you unlocked classes as the past party
>>
>>186973252
Sure, make the first party more distant ancestors. So no incest but the second party has lots of cousins getting hot and bothered - great for rural murica.
>>
>>186973440
personally I'd like a contrast between the more primitive psychic from the past (more damage oriented, significantly riskier as a class for whatever reason) compared to the more refined hexer of the present (literally just EOU2's hexer)

>>186971982
>>186973153
Well I did some brainstorming and so far came up with this following on from my original idea. I'm not very creative so I put some vague phrase after that holds some hidden meaning that I'm working on.

Past Strata

>Etazia (City), a chaotic seedbed
Chaos due to a plague struck city, violence scavenging, you get the idea
>Named Paradise (Sandy Ruins), the cost of freewill
See the watchtower
>Kaeit Labs (Laboratory/Corporation Building), birthplace of orphans
So all those horrid lovecraft/horror monsters from experiments and stuff are morw than mindless beasts. The idea that they were made in experiments so don't really have parents or family is nice to me and Orphan really captures that melancholy

Current Strata

>Wild Jungle, a resurrected prince
The jungle itself returns as nature claims back the land after mankind destroyed it. Prince because the jungle is honourable in a way, supporting countless ecosystems and species as well as providing sustenance for humans
>Need another here
>The Praetoric Watchtower (Autonomous Robot controlled facility), natures gentle embrace

So these 2 places are actually the same, or rather occupy the same place physically. The idea I wanted with this is in a sci fi twist, there's a guardian of the earth that sleeps when humans became advanced. When that happens the complex becomes hidden maybe underground and you're left with an abandoned sandy ruin. When mankind destroys itself the guardian returns and a great technological complex spawns served by robots.

I imagine the place as being silent aide from the continuous whirr and buzzing of electrical appliances working. I'm playing with the idea of the guardian itself being a member of a advanced race that existed before man but met the same fate.
>>
>>186978856

Now.
>>
>>186978509
I want to make a potato my wife.
>>
>>186979074
The evil corp/lab/plague story in the past doesn't have a direct link to the guardian, it's just the way man destroys itself. I wouldn't want it to get too political, but some commentary on how nature has a set pattern that works whilst us humans have free will and great potential but also room for risk would be nice. I'm not sure how I'd structure the game, but I'd like it to conclude in the present at the Praetoric Watchtower. Maybe even have the original party survive and be preserved here or elsewhere.

>>186979553
Hmm, interesting. Very good job.
But what would these stratums look like as waifus..?
>>
>>186978856
No EOV for the EOPs
>>
Playing EO4 and I have both a Land and a Runemaster. Should they put points in all the elements or each focus on one element?
>>
>>186981169
First, get all three elements at level one, then focus on one element in each stratum, the one that most enemies are weak to.
>>
>>186981169
You should get all elements unless you run a specific group that focuses on only a few.
Get Fire/Ice/Volt Rune to a high level eventually since they are great debuffs especially if you have other people with elemental damage.
For most active skills it's enough to jsut get them high enough to unlock the next tier and get passives to boost all your skills instead.
>>
>>186979916
Eh? The stratum as...waifus? This is a bizarre new concept for me.

I actually realized something about Stratum waifus today. Part of an explorer's job is to map out each floor, obviously, which is essentially drawing your own depiction of it. The obvious parallel would be drawing a portrait or whatever of the Stratum girl herself.

This got me imagining a Stratumfu lying on a sofa and going all "Map me like one of your Etrian Strata" to some nervous explorer with their parchment/sheepskin in hand. And then afterward, she critiques shit like their wall-drawing and symbol use.

I had an idea. You know how physical classes tend to focus on one damage type (ronin on cut, pugilist on bash, fencer on stab, etc) whilst magical ckasses have all 3 out of fire, volt and ice (see alchemist, runemaster, warlock) what if we flipped em?

So now we have multiple magic users each with more of a focus on one element and physical classes with a focus on 2 physical types. I was thinking up some ideas for em like:

>a class that fights with a bow that doubles as a sword so can deal both ranged and cut damage
>hybrid mace wielder maybe a protector class. The mace has a blade that pops out on impact for bash and stab damage
>a normal weapon, katana or sword that's used in different ways to vary between cutting and stabbing damage. Maybe like bunnys multikatana spec but with 2 different weapons.

Haven't really thought about the element focused magic classes yet.

>ronin on cut
Ronin has cut, stab and bash skills.
Ronin also has fire, ice and volt skills.

Also - are you trying to invent the Buccaneer? or the Bushi?

Honestly, I even erased everything and copied a picture. Am I just retarded or something?

I have the same issue, but I'm too lazy to try to find the single square I'm missing.

Speaking of lazy where's the new thread?

What's the best party for IV?
>>
>>187013609
One trap landshark
A lewd dancer
Teach as an Imperial
A fluffy runemaster
And twintail shield chan just for being cute

I like a Linker party. It is easy to set up and reasonably well balanced for how much peak damage you can get.

L/F/D
S/R

Dancer is your heal and support, so you will need Medicas for out of combat heal until halfway through the 3rd Stratum when you can subclass your Sniper into Arcanist for Bracing Walk.
Focus the Runemaster on ice and volt for more multi-hit skills.
