This LP inspired me to start EO3 back up with a different party style since my original setup was ENTIRELY too defensive (Monk/Princess/Hoplite/Zodiac/Farmer) which makes fights take drat near an eternity, though it does technically work. I know what I was thinking when I went with it, since my Monk was half weak-beatstick/half-healer but like has been mentioned - that really does not work all that well.

Replace the Farmer with an Arbalist and that's my party right now!

I never cracked the game open, beat it, or got past the fifth stratum so I couldn't tell you. I've also never used a Gladiator or Ninja aside from taking down one specific F.O.E.

But you can? When you go to formation menu to choose your party members, select one and press left. Now you can reorder them.

That information is not in the manual. But thank you. Oh my god that makes swapping party members so loving fast and quick.

Even if we didn't, a Zodiac is kinda super helpful regardless. Personally, I've never been much of a groaner at puns anyhow.

So, I've decided to play along with the LP and I'm going with a sliiiiiightly different party setup for the first floor, my party consisting of...

Kemix the Monk: 2 Form Qi and 1 in Healing
Mona the Zodiac: 1 in Fire/Ice Masteries and 1 in Fire Star
Dena the Arbalist: 3 in Giant Kill
Rayn the Hoplite: 1 in Provoke, 1 in Shield Mastery and 1 in Line Guard
and Terrie the Gladiator: 3 in Endless battle

Aaaaand...I'll admit, I haven't done much ELSE yet...but I did be a little pussy and take -everyone's- dagger and summer tweed, excepting the main party and the other five main party members (I did a couple farmbot lootings before dismissing all of them and making five Farmbots and five Ninbots, stripping ALL of them of their daggers and Tweed as well), giving me a starting equipment/item fund of 1200en.

For Weapons: Mona gets a Wisdom Book, Dena a Crossbow, Rayn and Terrie gets a Shortsword and Kemix gets a Macana
For Armor: Everyone gets Boots, Terrie and Rayn gets a shield, Mona/Kemix/Dena gets some gloves and Tweed for everyone
And with the money left, I buy like five Medicas and have 310en leftover, 330 with sold daggers and realize that I threw too many naked farmbots into the abyss to sell for their equipment...eh, whatever, it'll fund more dungeon trips. And with that, I head into the labrynth and start my road to ru- victory!

Puns are my guiltiest of pleasure sand I thank you for getting them into the LP :D

To wit! Asteria, MEGAQUEEN (how can I resist), and whomever your Buccaneer is (I am loving my buccaneer on my current playthrough's Team Synergy but need to be reminded why he isn't worth replacing with an Arbalist).

Cassandra: 9
Akatsuki: 9
Sidney: 3
Faye: 1

My Choice: 4

There's a 2 way tie for 5th place, however, Buccaneers can't do much early, and aren't that interesting in the early-game. So I'll be taking along MEGAQUEEN Susan, Asteria, Alice, Rose, and Fang! Huh, the party is mostly made up of the new guys, ha! Update is below this post.

EDIT: Or rather, on the next page.
