Who is your favorite character? And why is it Maelle?

[No' Name]

I jest. But seriously, Maelle is insanely overpowered, I have her beat all my merchants, because, she literally applies burn the first turn, uses her virtue stance next, and then kills them.

All the characters in this game have their uses of course, and I love how you pretty much rely on other characters to combo with each other, but it kind of seems like Maelle can single handedly take on pretty much anything given the right Lumina (Self healing on base attack for example).

Granted I'm not too far in the game yet. She's just basically the damage dealer, or so I find. Granted, Gustave comes in a very close 2nd, because of his actual self healing skills, not relying on Lumina effects.

Maelle is best girl. She really is a power house and a half. Her virtuoso stance is stupidly powerful. Late game setups allow her to take out full random battles on her own varying. That or she can delete/cripple one mob generally while the others help mop up the rest. Plenty of really neat things you can do. The combat videos for post game and beyond are gonna be awesome.

gustave is there to shock, lune is there to bring the element you need, but maelle is definitely there to dish out big amount of dmg, at lvl 15 i was already deling 6-7k a turn with her lol

with the right set up tho gustave can reach 9999 super early and lune skill that use all pigment to dish out discharge can also dish some tremendous amount of dmg


they're all good but i think the way maelle flow is the best for me too, i don't see any reason to replace her, lune is the healer and gustave the shocker, no point of changing, they're so good.

I'm just in act 2, after 10-15 hours into the game and Maelle is also my strongest one, I even have counter pictos so she's almost always doing 9999 counter every time, and I have her shoot to burn (And maybe also mark if i'm lucky), if not her weapon is at lvl 11, I can just base attack and apply 2 burn then do the same too haha, she's my strongest single target damage dealer

But down the line there's a 5th party member who's mechanic is built around parrying and dodging and if you do well... After a few turns they can do more damage than maella with extreme attack that's a 5 hit, I got 20k already with that

I wonder when we can break the limit to do more than 9999 since the videos they showed us could do like 20k in one hit or something, probably an end game thing we unlock haha, Maelle is my favourite too though

Lune.
I dont how Im supposed to walk anywhere now when I could be floating

[EJR]

Still in Act I, just got to the Gestral village so I have no clear indication on which of the three is my favorite so far whether it be personality or gameplay-wise. Speaking of the latter, I may reset the attributes as I think I built them wrong but we'll see.

It is easier to say my least favorite right now and that's Lune. Maelle has the gung-ho energy to be part of the team but is awed at the new world around her, and Gustave is intent on killing the Paintress and seeing everything as a threat on the island, no thanks to seeing the former take away everyone's loved ones and the latter being because they are in a hostile land. But Lune is just the typical booksmart, magic user who is interested in learning new things. It's not a bad character trope, I enjoy it a lot and love Lune for it, she just has the most one-dimensional character compared to the two.

[Its Almost Harvesting Season]

I've only got Gustave, Lune, and Maelle. So far I like Maelle for combat flow and animations, she's slick with that rapier! That's not to dig at the other animations either, Lune has some really nice ones with her spells too but Maelle just has so much swagger it's hard to pick anyone else lol

[Iro]

Monoco is my favorite, guy is funny and pretty cool to play

[Null]

I like Sciel! Her design is so cool and I love her personality! Her battle style is really cool too and I like how she uses Serge's swallows from Chrono Cross!

I've found a way to sorta solve the AP issue. Grab Luna and use the Hydro thing that heals/does dmg every round for 3 rounds. Then grab the pinto that gives +2ap on heal. So in a single action you can give 6AP to all party members.

They are all pretty balanced, especially because your damage mainly comes from the weapon and Lune is the only one who I think is not supposed to be a DPS machine.

Even then, Lune can also be a dps if you want. I would say Verso is the best DPS but Maelle is very easy to play thanks to her simple combo.
