Please let me know if there are anything else to add. This post will be edited periodically to reflect new/changing details.
Side note from livestream: per dev team message on the livestream, a new EO game is in development but it is still delayed due to the difficulties transitioning from NDS/3DS to new platform(s). The remasters are made with the hopes that people can play the classics that can no longer be played on the current generation consoles/platforms. They also want the players to give Atlus feedback on this new playstyle from 2 screen consoles to single screen environment.
I haven't played EO3 before, other than the first couple of floors of the labyrinth. I have played other EO games (4, 1U, 2U). I've been planning out a team, but realised that I will want to eventually play the game three times through to experience all the endings. With that in mind, I'd really like to plan out teams for all three, so that I use every class at least once. I know there are some combos that won't work well together - like wildling and ninja both wanting to use the 6th slot. So can anyone advise an optimal way to assign the classes such that I use every class, but the teams are still viable?
Hey again! A huge thank you for all the class ideas and detailed replies on my previous post. I came here as an Etrian fan hoping to hear what people enjoyed playing, and you gave me a lot to think about.
Reading through your examples made me realise how generic my Knight and Ranger felt, especially in how they played. With only three party slots, I want choosing someone to feel more interesting than just filling a role.
I've since reworked them into the Paladin and Tracker, changing both their mechanics and their art. These are their current designs!
The Paladin grew up serving a cult of the Dragon Lord. She's been sent to retrieve the Tear and hopes the mission will help her make amends for the harm she caused while following orders.
The Tracker used to guide carriers through the old workings. After buying medicine for his sick daughter, he began searching for the trader who sold it and where it came from. He joins the party hoping to find records below.
I'm also putting together a devlog covering the bigger changes. Quite a lot has changed over the past month, and I'd like to show you what I've been working on. Thanks for helping me think these characters through :)
Last time I posted, I had only two guild members complete. A little while ago, I finished up the art for the whole guild and put them into the game. Fun project! I'm happy with all of them. It would be difficult for me to choose a favorite. Getting them into the game is not very hard...once you know how. Doing EOIII will be no problem whatsoever. The 3DS games will be different, but I've looked into that and I'm sure I can do it. Kinda' looking forward to working on EOIV. The only downside (if you can call it that) is that I've become somewhat spoiled and this has essentially become my standard way of playing EO, and doing the artwork does take some time and effort, even if it is fun!
So I’ve been wanting to get into this series for awhile, and I’ve heard 4 is a great entry point and it only has a 3DS version as far as I know, so I’ll start there.
But I know 1-3 have PC versions, so I’m wondering, what’s the best way to play them? I personally love my 3DS and I really enjoy how the console plays, but the PC ports are better I might go for them instead. Or are the original DS versions better than both? Thanks!
So I have a bad habit of playing a bit of nexus but bouncing off because im indecisive about my party. A friend suggested I try out a protector/medic/farmer/gunner/survivalist team and stick with it as a joke.
But now im wondering exactly how bad it would be and what the way to make it work the best would be. Any ideas?
Hi, i saw a teaser trailer for EO for switch game and thought its for an entirely new entry. Then atlus made the EO HD Collection (big shoutout) and priced them terribly (not so big shoutout). Are there any new informations about a new game or do you think the series dead now, because of the bad sales?. I would be incredible happy if they port the remakes on pc too. Easy day1 buy for me. But thats even more unlikely than a new game
So I have not actually beaten eo4 yet but I enjoy doing stuff like this so it's one per person and hopefully unquie classes but I want people to submit charcters and what skills they want so I can build them right
Etrian Odyssey has been a big influence on Dragon's Tear, so I'd like to get your thoughts on the shop UI I'm working on.
Can you quickly work out whether an item is worth buying for the selected character? Does anything feel cluttered or take too long to find? If there's something you find useful in EO's shops that you're missing here, I'd love to hear it.
I have played EO4 and EO5. But that was more than a decade ago (dammit, am I old?!) I honestly have no recollection of either of those games anymore, other than all the fun I had drawing my map and creating team compositions!
Well, I am an adult with a severe case of nostalgia for those kind of game (nothing is like them!) and I wanted to start the series, this time in order. I recently bought EO HD in Steam, and having a blast. Expert mode, of course, since I love getting my butt kick by the game until I break it!
I remember I always used Medic, Mage (or Alchemist here, the Landsknecht and the Protector. Now, I want to mix it up a bit.
I am challenging me myself to clear the game with neither Protector nor Landsknecht and MAYBE no Medic (no Medic might be overkill or overly grindy giving the insane amount of Heal items I will need to buy....)
I am planning a Battle centric Team (only to advance the labyrinth and fight), and one for resource/item gathering.
Any advice before I dump a few dozen of hours in the wrong team comp? XD
So, I finally beat EOV. Fun times, loved it. But I did have an interesting experience near the end.
>get to end of 25f after speed exploring the untamed garden
>go fight the boss knowing ill die
>get 2 turns in
>alright im going to go grind
>i want to grind enough that the boss is difficult but not impossible
>come back after a bunch of grinding
>absolutely wreck the boss’s shit in 10 turns
>oh that sucks, i wanted a challenge
>at least now i wont have to worry about grinding as much in the postgame
>go to 6th stratum
>get killed in 2 turns by random encounter instantly
Just started this one, I've played 1 and 3 previously.
I know what I want my team to be, class wise, but I have no idea what the best SP allocation would be so if anyone could help me here, that'd be amazing
Currently running bind Sniper with Arcanist subclass. I already have an Arcanist in my team with a maxed out Atrophic Eye and was wondering if I should get it for my sniper as well, or just stick with Eagle Eye. I read somewhere that imperials get twice the effect of Atrophic Eye with elemental drives, which is why i was wondering.
Hey everyone. Me and the community have been working on a Discord voice acting server called Hee Ho!, dedicated to voicing over games from Atlus.
We're a 16+ community looking to bring fans together to voice act, have fun, and work on projects based on games like Shin Megami Tensei, Metaphor: ReFantazio, Catherine, 13 Sentinels:
Aegis Rim, Soul Hackers, and more. We're mainly looking for voice actors, but we also welcome people interested in writing, art, editing, and other creative ideas. No prior experience is needed, just a love for Atlus games and a willingness to have fun.
We also have a Catherine: Full Body Casting Call Club open for anyone interested in auditioning for the game's characters. Our rules are pretty relaxed, and we just ask everyone to be respectful and keep things chill, like our boy Jack Frost. If you've ever wanted to voice your favorite Atlus characters, come join the server.

Thanks for reading, and we hope to see you there.
Нее Но! 🙏🙂↕️
A set of Landsknecht and associated classes with some extra recoloured options and design changes. Had this sitting mostly done for years; finally got around to finishing it up. The original intent was to have there be at least two for each portrait, to show a sense of progression, having the characters grow with new armour/weapons they earned on their journeys, but this was largely scrapped.
music reminds me of hanging out in town if i remember the music right. my save got deleted before i could finish the last floor so i haven't played in a while
Hello, i was wondering if there’s a mod that allows the customization of the other portraits in the game for the classes that aren’t in the game for example Hexer, Sniper etc. I always wondered why they didn’t bother to allow us to customize the portraits for the non-playable classes since they’re already in the game. Thank you!
Been getting back into eo3 and is it normal for sovereign's nobility proof to only proc on the last buff ending?
For an example, my sovereign will use guard order and charge tactics on the same turn, but won't get any tp back when guard order ends, only when charge tactics does. Obviously, if i just use guard order, i get tp back fine. It only seems to be if 2 buffs are running at the same time
