Hostess is basically what you dip into to get Ice Spreader so the gals can deal cold damage. Eri's got one of the best blade attacks in the game as a crossclass skill from her default class so people generally make her a Dealer so she never stops attacking, between that and Darts Airstrike. Saeko is probably your default healer due to the other option being a much better attacker, and that's without even getting into stat growths. If you have the dlc classes don't forget to dip into Matriarch for the AK-47 skill.

I actually had Saeko in Hostess for the whole game pretty much. I don't why but Sparkling Cannon was consistently one of my highest damaging moves, on par with or better than most Essence moves, plus inflicting two status effects.

Level Eri in her default class until you get thumbtack scatter. You won’t regret it, it’s perfect for ending trash encounters fast.

Eri's default job gets really good AoE. People usually make Saeko an Idol instead of Eri because Saeko's default job sucks and Eri's rules.

I felt bad that every time Ichi gives a big speech about friendship or family and it pans to his party members, Eri was always just off in the bathroom or whatever.

I want reasons to use other jobs aside from "learn a skill" or "I got bored and wanted to try it out" Empress Brosephine posted:Is night queen any good Ehh, it's all right. The backflip attack you can learn from it is pretty strong but otherwise I didn't really see much use for the job.

Nanba healed me all the way through the game the first time. Night Queen is alright. It's not bad, it's just there. It has a similar tornado move to Barmaid that in practice never hits more than two people but at least might charm people it doesn't. Its only real offering is the candle fire attack that you can use in other jobs with better stats and moves. e: Dealer's Airstrike Darts is my AoE of choice for the ladies. It hits three times regardless of how many enemies there are and it doesn't have positional requirements, as well as being a Gun for some reason.

Night Queen exists so you can learn the Jewel Smasher move and then spend way too long trying to gauge your damage output so you can finish off the final boss by having Saeko kick him in the balls. No trophy for that, but still worth it.

Could be worse, it could be like Character 5 where your 6sp Head Trauma inexplicably does more damage than late-game 40+sp skills.

The second secret genius of Ichiban being the protagonist is that we can now have a wide cast of lovable characters and a story that keeps track of them and keeps them around in the future instead of introducing and killing them in the same game or banishing them to the shadow realm like Sayama.

Just concluded the Big Fight of chapter 14 In the end the duel between man and beast fell to the latter   Don't gently caress with Nancy. Yes, she did indeed get the final blow (granted it took one more turn of poison ticking).

re: ff15, been playing it for a while and can't quite work out when the game's meant to actually start. it feels like that bit at the start of a yakuza game where everything's blocked off and you can't actually do anything also, why can't yagami buy drinks from vending machines in judgement!! how am i supposed to get wasted on two drinks and then have a glass of water and be fine?

My Lovely Horse posted:I'm not gonna tell you what not to play, and maybe it got better after all the patches, but speaking as a fairly big Final Fantasy head I'd give FFXV a miss. Like entirely. Yeah 15 is okay but it really doesn't have much of a story, the boys are good characters but the narrative is so lifeless. 16 looks loving great though, and it's the 14 team so that bodes well. Shadowbringers is one of the best FF stories ever.

I really liked FF15 but I didn't have any expectations for it or know much about it beforehand. It's an FF game so I bought and played it and I really liked it. All the complaints about it are valid though. Anyway Yakuza. I started playing Like a Dragon and I love it. I'm having a blast. I'm only in chapter 5 and I just unlocked jobs recently so it's nice to read the last couple pages and see what sucks and what doesn't. Right now I'm really not feeling like changing jobs for a few reasons: 1 - Almost all the jobs I unlocked are support jobs and I don't want a party of all support people 2 - The stat drops really suck. Holy poo poo do they suck 3 - I actually like everyone's default jobs because they're all focused on damage with a little healing and support here and there What are the best early jobs? Seems like Musician for Nanba is OK?

Musician’s ok on Namba but I like him better in an attacking based class. That one’s a support class so I like giving it to someone tanky, like Adachi. The stat drops aren’t great but once you get a few job ranks, which takes no time at all, you’ll be back at full force. That said, don’t swap all your party members at once because otherwise everyone’s fighting at half capacity and you’re in for a bad time. Also as far as default jobs go, Barmaid sucks, Saeko’s got better magic but that’s a physical class.

There’s really not a lot of benefit in the job system up until that point because of how slow they are to level, and even then you could probably finish the game without it. Once you get to the obvious grinding location focus on foreman, fortuneteller and host on the male party members and hostess on the female party members. Getting them up into the mid 20s in these will give them the important cross-class elemental attacks (skills with a red orb unlock permanently) and make your life easier.

All the complaints about it are valid though. The stat drops suck but luckily job ranks have an EXP curve that makes it very easy to catch up a new job. Generally, most characters' best jobs are their default jobs and the most value they'll get out of other jobs is picking up a permanently-learned skill or two (the skills with red circles next to them--once you learn them, they carry over no matter what job you're in). The biggest exceptions are Adachi (whose default job is basically "Enforcer but worse" and who owns hard as an Enforcer) and Saeko (whose default job sucks so she makes a great Idol, and having a dedicated healer is very helpful later on). Musician is pretty good and has some great buffs. Plus, "Endless Desire" is a skill you'll permanently learn and is a surprisingly long-lasting and effective full-party HP regen buff. For right now, use the jobs you feel are most effective, even if they're default jobs. Later on it's a good idea to have people hop jobs to pick up skills with different damage types, like elemental damage or blade damage, but by the time that's important, you'll also be able to level jobs much more quickly.

Nah I'm a semi-completionist so I might not get the plat trophy but I will absolutely do as much side content as I can stomach and that's probably going to be a lot. Thanks for the recommendations. I do plan on experimenting with some of the jobs for fun. Sometimes you find some really good skills that other people may have passed over.

The reason I say if that’s all you want to do is that the only reason to get anymore in-depth with it is the post-post game super dungeon, which needs a ton of job grinding to beat and is only really attempted by people who want the plat since beating it is the hardest trophy required. If you’re not gonna do that then the system is almost totally an afterthought. None of the other side content needs any job system tinkering.
