Here are some honorable mentions for good personalities: -*Clown*: very balanced option for the hero or monster wrangler, because they are all-rounders. Overall a +40% for only -10% across all stats. -*Good egg*: Basically clown but the boosts are more spread out across all stats, but 30% less agility then clown. +40% for only -20% across all stats. -*Slippery devil*: Basicaly lone wolf, but a bit more suited for magic casters or all-rounders. very good multipliers. Overall a +40% for only -15% across all stats. -*Everyman*: If you want things to be balanced as much as thanos wanted it to be. Overall a +0% for only -0% across all stats. Not too good but funny: -*Paragon*: If you only care abt strength and wanna hit hard. 140% strength growth rate but poor luck and agility (wisdom too but not important). Overall a +40% for only -60% across all stats. -*Spoilt Brat*: Basically nerfs you in most stats for 10% extra luck. Overall a +10% for only -40% across all stats. -*Straight Arrow*: This personality ONLY nerfs you?? Overall a +0% for only -20% across all stats.
I've played hundreds of hours of Dragon Quest games but this is my first time playing 3 so many of these systems were unfamiliar. Your video explained most of my questions. It sounds like personality is about growth potential instead of a stat limiter so if I had 100% strength growth and change it to a class that has 90% growth that doesn't mean that my already obtained points get cut by 10%, it just means future points will be given 10% less right? I am now much more willing to experiment with personalities now I know changing it doesn't eat my previously earned stats. Thank you!
Want an OP Tank? I went Priest Mage Warrior Sage. On Priest go Genius. On Warrior go Tough Cookie (learn all abilities lvl47) and Sage is Genius. What do you get? A tanky Sage with a bunch of HP and MP as of right now she's at 600+ HP and 600+ mp with 300 str and 360 wis ☠️ she's stupidly broken no magic? DPS on the go. Speedy mage is really strong too because they have Kabuff which is a plus for a speedy mage and Oomph to boost your allies before they act.
I’m shocked that Lone Wolf is so good… because I got it on my own Personality test. I may as well have gotten Lucky Devil for how much lined up perfectly for me in my playthrough.
I ended up getting the clown on my hero, but due to how many stat seeds we are given I just keep chucking them on the hero and the game play is just fine.
I couldn’t get vamp to pop up for anyone. Even the female characters. I eventually gave up and settled. I started my hero with tough cookie, intending to make him the tank. Figure I’ll just dump all of the seeds of agi, wis and luck into him to try and offset the lack of growth. For some reason my thief is leveling a lot faster than the rest of the crew. Gave my Monster wrangler the whip you get for two mini medals and he’s shredding enemy groups. Rounded it out with a priest since I’m new to III and naturally cautious in jrpgs.
Even without those Thief/Merchant/Gadabout lv up faster then all the OTHER jobs classes but even with those at lv 50 it could still take 30+ hours of Liquid Metal slime farming with a full party TO hit lv 99 your better off trying to SOLO those slimes from lv 50 to lv 99 but don't use Puff/Be Dragon the LMS's tend to not stick around for the full 2 turns. Solo just killing one LMS gives you the full exp in this case 50,000 exp solo you just need the lv 48 Martial artist skill to kill them solo Hero can't really kill them without critical hits.
game8 website has a 'How to Change Party Personality with Seeds' page that shows what stats to give your new party members to get the personality you want. It's a bit of RNG so you might have to try a few times. To get Vamp for example you allocate: 2 Stamina, 1 Agility, 1 Wisdom, 1 Luck.
Show off is a a solid choice for an all-rounder, just not in the top 3. It gives +10% in 3 stats but also -10% growth rate in 2 stats (stamina and luck). So not that crazy, only an overall 10% boost (cuz +30% -20% total). If you watched the part where I talk about descriptions being a scam, some personalities look like they have no drawback but actually have some hidden multipliers. I wish the game told you about this.
IMO, the best personality for Warrior is LAZYBONES. It gives a pretty sizable boost to Strength, Resilience, and Luck (all key stats) at the expense of both agility and wisdom. If you don't intend to go the Priest route with it, Lazybones is the best.
Interesting, yeah I could see that being a good option. Thanks for sharing. Now, im not a big fan because of the 70% growth rate in resilience. Which can make you very squishy. But it could be a solid option before you get a better book
@@whitewolf3051 I believe "Amazon" is now called "Bodybuilder" and "Valiant" I know is now "Paragon." Both are just giant strength boosts with not much else (+40% for Paragon and +30% for Bodybuilder). They both have a flat 100% modifier for Resilience and penalties in everything else. I would personally rather Lazybones's 115/120 rather than Pargon's 140/100 or Bodybuilder's 130/100, especially since the other two have a penalty to luck on top of that (Bodybuilder is 80% and Paragon is 70%).
Going by the guide book for the GBC version of DQ III, Amazon was the choice for female warrior, valiant for male warrior. Don't know what HD 2D Remake equivalent of those personalities are, or is considering that vamp covers lewd as well as sexy, which were for male and female respectively.
Keep in mind that some personalities have had their multipliers changed. Look up the differences between versions here: www.reddit.com/r/dragonquest/comments/1gqgheh/dq3_hd2d_new_personalities_and_other_things_ive/ . Its translated info coming from japanese forums.
I want to change my monster wrangler(lone wolf) to martial artist after getting all the abilities, so what personality would you recommend or the one in this video is fine?
The ones in the video are the best. MW and MA share the same best personalities. except in the early game where MA wants more luck but you dont wanna play MA too early anyways.
I don't actually think Vamp is the best personality for every vocation. Not every vocation uses every stat, so there are quite a few that benefit more from other personalities. Based on my calculations, Tough Cookie is generally the best personality for physical classes, while lone wolf is the best for magical classes. The obvious exception is Hero, which is a true all around class.
Stat growth is the same yeah, but initial stats at lvl 1 are different for men and women. Not a big diff tho. Armor could make a difference in the long run yeah.
I would go vamp on the hero to be able to do anything and everything. But you need to be female hero (or body type B). if u want male hero, go lone wolf.
Kind of since in every single DQ game that HAS job classes some skills are limited to the actual party members so while they can for the job classes the skills the Hero learns in any version of DQ3 NONE of the job classes the others can use any learn those.
Vamp. Period. Next topic. No seriously, my Mage in HD 2D is better than the one from my Switch version of the mobile version. And the only change was Vamp, instead of Wit. My Thief has been having slight attack issues, but that's because of the weapon selection, and focus on speed above all else naturally. When she becomes a Warrior later, she'll be a block of Tungsten launched from a Canon, with how bulky, and fast she is. And my Priest has become a Sage, who can hit almost as strong as my Hero. And I've dumped ALL of my strength seeds on him.
Vamp isn't just the best anymore with the stat caps being increased. a Sage that was genius will hit much harder than a Sage that was vamp. You can also fix any holes in the stats with seeds and class swapping.

You’re the only tuber willing to go deep in detail on this game! Another amazing video! Can’t wait to see what you’ll cover next in dq3
I'm just a big nerd who loves to dive in the nitty-gritty of these games, I'm glad youre enjoying the content!!❤️
@@acwano I'd love to see what skills characters get and what level, like there's only info on spells and such and not much on anything else
Many decades ago , the DQ 111 BEST classes chart was created by JUMP magazine.
and I have all my DQ ENIX guides from the 1980's.
Damn thats kinda what im already working one, learnset guide and what useful spell does every class learn and at what lvl. stay tuned!@@Dudeman715
Be careful @markplott4820 , the multipliers of many personalities have been slightly changed. But they do the same thing overall.
Here are some honorable mentions for good personalities:
-*Clown*: very balanced option for the hero or monster wrangler, because they are all-rounders. Overall a +40% for only -10% across all stats.

Was just about to post that I think Clown is low key the best personality for male hero.
THANK YOU! This clears up A LOT. Especially for the martial artist, which i would have been totally confused about statwise.
I'm glad I could help man!
Thanks! You gave me an idea on what to do.
Thats what what im here for, glad I was useful!💪

Clown is a very good early game personality actually! But u can get better.
I couldn’t get vamp to pop up for anyone. Even the female characters. I eventually gave up and settled. I started my hero with tough cookie, intending to make him the tank. Figure I’ll just dump all of the seeds of agi, wis and luck into him to try and offset the lack of growth.

Does your thief happen to have the Elevating Shoes equipped? That would explain the fast level gains in the early game.
@ Nah. For whatever reason I didn’t get the preorder bonus from Best Buy. 🤷♂️
Sounds like a solid start!
Even without those Thief/Merchant/Gadabout lv up faster then all the OTHER jobs classes but even with those at lv 50 it could still take 30+ hours of Liquid Metal slime farming with a full party TO hit lv 99 your better off trying to SOLO those slimes from lv 50 to lv 99 but don't use Puff/Be Dragon the LMS's tend to not stick around for the full 2 turns.

I'm curious why not go with show off for the hero? show off raises some pretty good stats and as far as I know it doesn't have any drawbacks.

and here i am using Paragon on hero 😂
Paragon is not bad, definitely usable before you get better ones!
IMO, the best personality for Warrior is LAZYBONES. It gives a pretty sizable boost to Strength, Resilience, and Luck (all key stats) at the expense of both agility and wisdom. If you don't intend to go the Priest route with it, Lazybones is the best.

Now, im not a big fan because of the 70% growth rate in resilience. Which can make you very squishy. But it could be a solid option before you get a better book
@@acwano It’s 120% resilience, unless they changed it? In the original, it was 115% Strength, 60% Agility, 120% Resilience, 65% Wisdom, and 110% Luck.
What about the remake equivalent to Amazon or valiant? Those were the personalities according to the guide book for the GBC version of DQ III.
@@whitewolf3051 I believe "Amazon" is now called "Bodybuilder" and "Valiant" I know is now "Paragon."

Yup, both of them are not as good as other personalities that give you a lot like tough cookie or lone wolf.

another great vidfeo alot of the books over lap thoe
Yup, the game intentionally gives you books for good personalities, because what would be the point otherwise. Good game design.
I don't actually think Vamp is the best personality for every vocation. Not every vocation uses every stat, so there are quite a few that benefit more from other personalities. Based on my calculations, Tough Cookie is generally the best personality for physical classes, while lone wolf is the best for magical classes. The obvious exception is Hero, which is a true all around class.
Yeah its more like its VERY good for every single one. I agree that its not necessarily the best
are the books that change personalities in DQ3 HD2D remake one time use or can be use multiple times?
One time use sadly, but you can find multiple copies of the same book. I think I found the genius book twice in the very early game.
If I pick a like a male thief or a female thief do they have the same stats? Will the gender exclusive armor make a difference?
Female characters generally have access to more equipment/accessories. Stat growth should be the same.
Stat growth is the same yeah, but initial stats at lvl 1 are different for men and women. Not a big diff tho. Armor could make a difference in the long run yeah.
So for my Hero would Tough Cookie be best for Draconian playthrough or Lucky Devil, Vamp, or Lone Wolf?
I would go vamp on the hero to be able to do anything and everything. But you need to be female hero (or body type B). if u want male hero, go lone wolf.
Better to change other classes into merchant.
I personally like having the merchant as a starter to help with money and service call in early dungeons. Then I just transition off.
Is it possible for a character to master every class and learn every skill?
Yes you can I learn the whole class abilities then change to a different one
Technically, yes!
Kind of since in every single DQ game that HAS job classes some skills are limited to the actual party members so while they can for the job classes the skills the Hero learns in any version of DQ3 NONE of the job classes the others can use any learn those.
Vamp.
Period.
Next topic.
No seriously, my Mage in HD 2D is better than the one from my Switch version of the mobile version.
And the only change was Vamp, instead of Wit.
My Thief has been having slight attack issues, but that's because of the weapon selection, and focus on speed above all else naturally.
When she becomes a Warrior later, she'll be a block of Tungsten launched from a Canon, with how bulky, and fast she is.
And my Priest has become a Sage, who can hit almost as strong as my Hero.
And I've dumped ALL of my strength seeds on him.
Vamp isn't just the best anymore with the stat caps being increased. a Sage that was genius will hit much harder than a Sage that was vamp. You can also fix any holes in the stats with seeds and class swapping.
