Gadabout reset into sage?

[Pexaan]

I always hear people getting Gadabout from PPPP and starting from 0 and power leveling him. Wouldn't getting another class to lv20 then reset into Gadabout be better since u retain those skills and gadabout can be useful with those stats and skills and then go into sage? am i missing something with gadabout?

The main thing about Gadabout into Sage is they are the only class that can just change into one at 20. For every other class, you need an item to change them into a Sage, of which I believe there are only 2 books in the game.

I started the game with one wasn't too bad until about lvl 16 or so when she kept paralysing herself every other turn. Apparently though they get some nice abilities if you level them past 20 like Hustle Dance, but I don't care enough about them to wait lol.

It doesnt really matter actually cause you will notice the tower to get sage scroll to unlock sage vocation for everyone is just near the vocation building so its not like you are gaining time by taking a gadabout...
I think its better to take gadabout to unlock all their unique skills cause now he seems to have more skills than before, in the original game I mean....so lets go!

The scroll is one-use, so if you want more than one sage, Gadabout's the way to go (and yes, they still suck, but with elevation shoes they're at level 20 in no time).

Yeah they learn abilities all the way up to level 44 or 45, same with Wrangler. Hustle Dance is like LVL 42 or something.

Running 3 Gadabouts isn't so bad actually. One of their abilities is sobering slap and that removes sleep, confusion, and paralysis. If one of my Gadabouts acts up, one of the others will slap her back into shape. Sure It loses a turn, but gadabouts are constantly losing turns anyway. Unfortunately the sobering slap is a battle only ability.
Multiple Gadabouts using fight wisely is surprisingly effective.

Not true. You get two scrolls throughout the entire game. One is very late game. You never need more than two sages anyway.

that is so damn funny, full team of Gadabouts would be so fun to watch if a content creator decided to do it with funny commentary.

keep in mind every time you reset class the character's stats are cut by 1/2...... so if you go another class -> gadabout -> sage then they will have changed class twice and thus only be retaining 1/4th of their original stats.......

ah i see, ty. Guess Gadabout stat distribution is horrible since no one changes into Gadabout but rather prefer start from 0

Actually there are three scrolls in the game, but the latter two are not availble until the late game. So if you want more than one sage for the majority of the main game...

The main and only reason this is a feature is for people that want multiple sages for whatever reason; leveling a gadabout can be a little annoying but once they're 20 you may as well make them a sage
