    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 6 років тому +1

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

    • @yakkobutmute6000

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

    • @XemnasKH
      @XemnasKH 6 років тому +3

      Specifically its a passive skill from the scholar job

  • @WondersOfWonder
    @WondersOfWonder 6 років тому +29

    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

  • @BigDaddyMacc
    @BigDaddyMacc 6 років тому +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.

      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

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

    • @BoomstickGaming
      @BoomstickGaming  6 років тому +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 6 років тому

    • @silverlyons5049
      @silverlyons5049 6 років тому

      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 6 років тому

    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.

      Abelardo The captured creatures have a limited number of uses in battle so its not quite pokemon but capturing them is the same. More like your recruiting temporary skills than permanent animal companions.

  • @AboveAverageAdam

    @kevisafan 6 років тому +2

    • @SilentPsychopath
      @SilentPsychopath 6 років тому +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 6 років тому

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

    • @SilentPsychopath
      @SilentPsychopath 6 років тому

      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.
