Etrian Odyssey X details and screenshots – Hero class, NPCs, more
Atlus published the latest details and screenshots for Etrian Odyssey X today. We learn more about the Hero Class, NPCs, and more. We’ve rounded everything up below, courtesy of Gematsu.
New “Hero” Class
– Vanguard: Attack and Defense Type
– Soldier who fights with a sword and shield, and never gives up even when in critical condition
– Class has many skills that assist party members and strong wave attacks unseeming of a single person
– Force Burst: Brave Heart: Drastically increases your afterimage rate of occurrence and the total attack power of your afterimages for three turns
– Force Break: Miracle Edge: Performs a close-range cut attack on all enemies, then recovers the HP of all allies beyond the maximum value
– Skill: Mirage Sword: Performs a distant cut attack on one enemy, and has a high probability of creating an afterimage
– Skill: Regiment Rave: At the end of your turn, performs a close-range cut and fire (combined attribute) attack on one enemy. (The more damage your party dealt to the target this turn, the higher the power of the Regiment Rave attack.)
– Skill Tree (Novice)
The Hero Battles Using Afterimages
– By learning the passive skill “Traces,” when the Hero attacks an enemy using an attack skill, there is a fixed probability an afterimage will appear in party slot
– The Hero attacks with Brave Wide; after the damage has been dealt, the afterimage of a Hero will appear in the party slot
– The turn following the afterimage’s appearance, the afterimage will use Brave Wide again
– The turn following an afterimage’s appearance, it will attack using the attack skill that was used when it appeared, and when that turn ends, the afterimage will disappear
– A characteristic of the Hero class is cooperating with both party members and afterimages
– But that is not the only effect of an afterimage
– There are various methods in combination with skills in terms of what you can do with the afterimages that appear
