  • Octopath Traveler - Tressa is, for all intents and purposes, a jack of all trades. She does everything, and in the last video we showcased her utility. This time, she's the centrepiece of the enemies' demise, serving up some incredible elemental damage!
    With an all-out attacker build, Tressa hits hard with little to no setup, allowing her to one-shot the toughest enemies! The SP cost may be hefty, but you can use the SP Saver support skill to make her a viable farming unit. Tressa is the hero we need, and one we seriously don't deserve! ^^

    When first time I played this game, without referring any guide, I chose Thessa as a main. I like her at first sight. Turns out she is the best teenage money grubber unique class in RPG history ever!

      man I love Tressa
      but I chose Therion as my main and I don't regret it.
      Therion is da goat but Tressa is dam good as well

    Having been playing this game for nearly 60 hours and watching the strategy videos online, I feel gaining the rune lord ability is like THE turning point for Tressa as well as the whole team. I honestly didn''t know how to appreciate her ability besides making money, passing BP and making her a dancer in the early stage of the gameplay.
    But with rune lord, she is like transformed into the master of the game. What a stark contrast.

    I bought this game around September and played it for a while, but I got bored of it pretty fast (I also got my ps4 a little after buying this game, might have had something to do with it). But I recently picked it up again and I've been really enjoying it. I'm about a 100 hours into the game now and haven't even beaten all chapter 4s yet but I'm having a lot of fun building teams and OP characters like this one. Your video definitely helped a lot.

  • @garyowens7665
    @garyowens7665 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    When I first saw this game, I heard about the character Tressa and thought “Oh, she’s just a merchant what can she do to help”, but then I played the game and turns out she’s my fav character plus she is the most useful! My mama used her a scholar at first and it was a very good job combo cuz she can spam her spells and use rest (Which restores HP+SP) and it’s perfect! I have now made her a Runelord cuz I saw your video+ I used transfer rune +sidestep so everyone can avoid attacks! Plus, she has naturally pretty high Elemental attack so with all the support skills you showed in the video+equipment, she was the best character! Plus, her personality is really good. She was level 86 whenever I defeated Galdera! 🥲☺️ If I play octopath again, my first choice as the protagonist would be Tressa!

    @alexperaza9475 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Wow.... OK. I'm currently building up Tressa actually so I'm going to use this build as a blueprint for mine. This is great! Good video!
    Still working my way through the advanced job bosses, but I already have Tressa as my Runelord so I'm on the right track.

    • @garyowens7665
      @garyowens7665 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, you’re on the right track. Also, she’s the best sorcerer too cuz she can do SP Saver+rest+spam spells and the spells won’t affect her SP too much if you rest and have SP saver on her.

    I personally like abusing Runes with Second Serving and Stat Swap (As needed) on other characters as needed, generally results in a lot more damage than this, especially when Cyrus or Olberic get their turn. It also doesn't really require BP (You're gonna murder them with basic attacks) which you can save for other important things.

    You can actually get 1 more elemental augmentor by doing the quest of the guy next to the entrance of wispermill and I think you need to kill the direwolf in the forest of purgation.

  • @MineNAdventurer
    @MineNAdventurer 6 ปีที่แล้ว +20

    I like making Cyrus into an God Sorcerer. Elemental Edge+Elemental Aid+BP-Boost+Surpassing Power is really good. When Cyrus has a Bishop Staff and over 900 Elem. Atk with only one Elem Augmentators is really broken. (hes also only at lvl 60)

    • @MrCharly780
      @MrCharly780 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      He is the best character of the game, I beaten the final boss first part 1 with him, using concort to boost BP, have ophelia transfer cleric divine ability to him, have cyrus use the divine sorceror ability and enjoy doing multi crit damage of 15 to 20k x6 to everybody, pretty much the best character. The perks I use are the same as you but I prefer the one that halves SP used because he consumes sp like crazy if not using the sp nuts (which I didn't.)

  • @kevan1922

    i had hanit as a theif equiped with double tomahawk, so in addition to being a debuff god, she also breaks anything super consistently for tressa to wipe the boss with. also if alfyn lines up, his concocts sometimes means i can just ignore the breaks and kill the boss with 2 balagor blade over 2 turns.

  • @love2lovesum1
    @love2lovesum1 7 วันที่ผ่านมา

    It’s crazy how much stronger an advanced job can make a character. I’m looking forward to getting these jobs. I honestly believe Tressa makes the best Runelord and Cyrus makes the best Scorcher.

  • @Daboy804
    @Daboy804 6 ปีที่แล้ว +32

      @aetheruszhou1526 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Runelord is easy to get too. You need 2 merchants that has the first warrior skill "cover", a cleric (better also be one of the merchants), and one or two damage dealers. Make sure that the attackers are near death so that the merchants can cover him/her. The 2 merchants just keep stacking side-step on themselves, so that all Balogar's single attack will 100% miss. When Balogar uses AOE, just revive the attackers with the cleric (don't boost).

    @Piyamakarro 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    You can probably swap out Elemental Edge for Augmented elements and use Peacock strut since it's the same buff. This build has 2 dancers that are faster than Tressa so you can reliably pull that off. I mean, it doesn't matter because the bosses are already dead, but it's a way to get a little more damage.

  • @BetaNights
    @BetaNights 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Oh my god, this is the Octopath version of the KOS-MOS / Herald / QTpi build...
    Hey, I was wondering. Sometimes when I use Leghold Trap, it doesn't change the turn order for the current or following turn at all, so I sometimes have to wait for the NEXT turn after the ones shown. Is there a reason for this? It just seems kind of odd, especially when I see it changing things immediately like in this video.

    • @baninithepanini1537
      @baninithepanini1537 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      BetaNights, You probably used Leghold Trap on a broken enemy. Broken enemies will *always* move first on the turn they recover.

    • @MultiFunkyjunk

  • @Zephlo97
    @Zephlo97 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I personally prefer to use Tressa as a support character. Even as a Rune Lord. Her combo of 100% evade buff along with sharing said buff to the other party members completely negates some boss fights that rely on nothing but physical attacks. Combine this with a character with the Reflect Veil to send magic attacks back where they came from and congratulations, you won the game.

    What are your thoughts on apothocary Cyrus? Giving him the battle tested Axe and the Sub Zero staff will make him a scary ice based nuke when tressa gives him an ice rune and he uses last stand. +2 to ice and a +1 to lightning is nothing to scoff at.

    • @MrCharly780
      @MrCharly780 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      better as a sorceror with the cleric staff, just use alf for bp concort, use ophilia to boost cyrus with the cleric divine ability and if only 1 enemy use cyrus scholar ability, deals 20k x 6 for 100k to 120k damage.

    I don't get why you dont swap Tressa and Cyrus? I mean Tressa is better as a runelord overall. But if you want to oneshot Cyrus damage is much higher. My Cyrus with double elemental augmentor has 999 elem atk. And Tressa makes an excellent Sorcerer.

    • @NnLiMedia
      @NnLiMedia  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      It could! His high elemental attack can punch some holes into the enemies easily. While he doesn't have access to as many weapons as Tressa, this just means he can't stack Wind bonuses.
      As a scholar/Runelord, he has access to Sword, Axe and Staff. So he could use Harald's Sword, Battle-tested Axe and Bishop's staff to give bonuses to Fire, Ice, Lightning and Light.

  • @metalsteel5631
    @metalsteel5631 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    "elemental aid is quite costly" No lol, it's NOT. Only if you use elemental attacks. A normal attack costs NOTHING. so double of nothing is NO SP USED. elemental aid is damn good for runelord. Also, battletested shield is great for sp regen. with elemental gear, each of the party members can do 50k for a normal hit with tressa's runelord buff. I got a party build that uses no attack skills, they only do normal attacks to save sp.

    • @NnLiMedia
      @NnLiMedia  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      It costs twice the amount of SP to use all skills,so if you used Balogar's Blade (like I did in this video) it costs 100 SP. But you're right about one thing: the damage of the pursuits from the runes does increase with Elemental Aid.

  • @craig581
    @craig581 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Most overpowered character in the game by far. Makes everything a breeze. Once you get that Rune Lord class, it completely changes the game. But i would warn you, it does make the game far too easy, so if you want a challenge in this game, i wouldn't recommend using her.
