Berserker for Water, but that was pretty obvious given I'm a Risk player. So, question. I'm assuming that until I can get Death Sickles, my Berserkers are better off using Barehanded than any of the axes I can buy, yes?

Wait, is this true? I've been buying axes and hammers all this time.

Garula is going to be hell. But thieves have a lot of nice quality of life improvements, guaranteed escapes are great, as is immunity to back attacks, plus you can steal a lot of really nice things. People bash on thieves and say they're terrible but they're actually pretty good...just the start is going to be really rough.

Heroic Yoshimitsu posted:

I'm not sure, that's why I asked. But it seems to make sense to me. Barehanded gives them two attacks, with a chance of critical hit, plus fists don't have the awful accuracy of hammers/axes. I guess the only downside is that fists don't have the defense-quartering property of the weapons but at the beginning of the game most enemies have low/no defense anyway so it shouldn't be an issue. But I wasn't sure if there was some exception, like maybe I want to have an axe at Byblos or something.

Oh poo poo, if I'm playing on iOS, does that mean I'll be unable to beat the sandworm? Or have they changed the berserker targeting from "attack the first enemy on the list, which is the sandworm hole" to actual random targeting?

You sure can! Team White Mage will be taking full advantage of that to grind in that area.

My team so far is Black Mage, Berserker, Bard. I'm not really familiar with Bard in this game, is there anything in particular I should do to make it effective? I know to play all the pianos, at least.

First time through the game in like, 10 years. Garula was a capital bitch with 4 black mages. Chugged enough potions, made it through, rolled... time mage. As someone who never used mages before, this is really outside the ol' comfort zone.

Get all the songs and the legendary harp, put !Black on as a secondary, and you're good to go.
