Etrian Mystery Dungeon 2: Subclass feature detailed
Posted on May 25, 2017 by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News
As can be expected from a game combining the Etrian Odyssey and the Mystery Dungeon series, Etrian Mystery Dungeon 2 offers some pretty in-depth customization options. The latest issue of Jump magazine revealed another such example – the subclass feature (thanks to Siliconera for the translation).
In addition to the primary class each character has, you will also be able to assign them a “subclass”. This allows them to use skills from that class and gives them stat buffs. This can be used to enhance a character’s strength or compensate for their weaknesses. Jump magazine lists two examples: first up, a Landsknecht is a close-range combat specialist. However, by giving him the Runemaster subclass, he can now attack from range with a variety of elemental spells. The other example is a Hexer with a Paladin subclass. Hexers debuff enemies, but are normally pretty frail. However, thanks to the Paladin subclass, they can take a few more hits and are able to wield shields.
