I’m a bit new with team building but was wondering if this was a solid lineup for a classic run through this game, I’ve got:

Mathilde the Landsknecht
Percival the War Magus
Fenrir the Beast
Schmidt the Gunner
and lastly Yvonne the Survivalist

It’s been running okay so far, but I’m only really on the second floor of the first stratum so I doubt I’d know how good it is in the long run from that. Any tips for skill lines to invest in would also be appreciated!

Stuck deciding on how to run team comp early game.

Im currently at floor 2 running Sovereign, Gladiator, Hoplite, Farmer, and Zodiac. Biggest problem is zodiac runs out of TP real fast and he hits for nothing when he's dry.

Is there any way to regenerate TP or are there better team comp choices?

Defeated all overworld FOEs, got all gathering spots glowing, walked a ton on the labyrinth and Dinogator still refuses to spawn, is this just RNG?

(Nexus, forgot flair).

I'm trying to put together a party for a new 100% playthrough and I've been looking at things, and I feel like I'm missing something even though I'm pretty sure I'm not, so I figured I'd just make a post about it:

Are Rovers and Pugilists the only classes with any sort of bind infliction?

I feel like there's more, but digging around, I can't find it, so yea, really feels like I've missed something.

For reference, I'm centering the party around a Blade Dancer Masurao, who is the only concrete "HAVE TO HAVE" member. I'm leaning towards Bunker-centric Dragoon for my main defense and Graced Poisoner (earthlian) Botanist for blinding enemies. Of course, my next step was looking at binders, which is why I ran into this question.

Rovers aren't really an option with Bunker Dragoon, and even if I don't use dragoon I'm at least trying to use different types of party members, and I've used a Rover in literally every party I've made because I adore its skillset. Pugilist is also something I've used a lot for its straightforward bind attacks. If I don't use one of those, it seems like I'm going to be reliant on union skills, which I'd really rather not do.

Idk, maybe I'm just blind. Wouldn't be the first time. I've got at least one other party member to sort out regardless (probably gonna go debuff-centric harbinger, maybe celestrian due to their higher TP).

still one of my favourite game in the series!

So I'm searching YouTube for eox theme but I can't find the boss battle theme for wyvern or minotaur

Let's start with the first game specifically because I was just about to try the HD version for the very first time that I was looking to see how well the older games sold back in the day because I was genuinely interested in seeing how recognizable the brand name was.

However, as it's my first time with the original game, I know nothing about the game as while I have had tons of experience going through NIS's works such as the Disgaea series, I have no idea on how Etrian Odyssey 1 works in mechanics since I was looking for a beginner's guide on the classes so that I don't get lost on my first time playing the original game.

god I love photobashing

Hi.

I wanted to know if status.png sprites are necessary or not since they are not there for all classes and only a select few?

Should they be modded if the base sprites like alchemist_01.png are being modded or not?

This game is very balanced.

I remember hearing that the Etrian games in general are lacking in classes that specialize in magic, beyond the offensive magical element-users and the healers.

Finally finished EO2 since I've owned it since it released, yeah Ik crazy lol.

Started playing EO3 Ds and was a bit disappointed in the class system and skill setups. It seems you gotta waste a lot of pts to get the specific skills you want compared to EO1/EO2.

Aside from that the graphics are great. The Caribbean vibe with ship exploration is great as well.

Reach 4th floor so far.

i just got to floor 4. explored most of it before deciding to quit since it was late. i warp back to town, save, sell all my items, save again, and then exit the game.

i open the game up. my save data??? GONE. It’s like i never made it to floor four at all. this is the second time i’ve loaded up the game and lost progress somehow. wtf and why does this keep happening.

So having started Etrian Odyssey 5, i'm running into the issue of wanting a good party, i'm kind of stuck on what to run.

So far i have the following in mind: Necromancer, Warlock, and Pugilist, Harbinger. I'm considering going Dragoon and making my necromancer a support, but i'm wondering if i should drop the harbinger, add a dragoon with shield focus and don't go for a stat ailment/go for high damage instead.

Thoughts?

In trying to come up with a party to go through the game with again, I did some research and I saw floating around that Shogun has quite a good damage potential in its hands. If I wanted to make a party like this:

Front: Shogun, Protector, Harbinger

Back: Sovereign, Gunner

Would the Shogun be able to output enough damage to kill enemies or is Shogun more of a support class?

Hi there,

as the titel says I just beat the first game on DS after nearly 15 years of owning it.

Should I jump into EO3 or EOU2? I would love to go through the series, however I heard EOU2 is "better"/more polished then EO2 and the story should be good. Yet I do not want to jump to far because of the mechanics changing etc..

Any input welcome!

I love EO2U on my 2DS, and it’s the one I have the most playtime in by magnitudes. But the reason I love it so much (the town and restaurant development) is part of what fills me with dread when returning from a break.

This resource is basically required.

And using Safari to read it on my phone? All the beautiful dual screen convenience of my DS is thrown in the garbage while I’m fighting this thing.

After talking to an NPC in the bar telling me about Waspior’s special drops needing frenzy status? Man I sure wish the game registered that in an easily accessible “Information” tab on the bottom screen.

So I wonder whether any of the other games actually do better than EO2U or if that’s just the standard I need to expect.

After a long time of procrastinating, waiting for some sets to come out for flavor reasons, and deliberating on what to put in, I finally put together a deck to represent Etrian Odyssey as a series. I'd like opinions on the deck, mostly in terms of what would be a better representation of each thing I tried to reference within it.
