    Octopath Traveler Which Character Should You Start With? - Part One: Rogue
    Octopath Traveler has eight very unique characters, and it can be a bit daunting to choose which character you should start with. Let's go through each character and see which one best suits your play style enough to be the character you start with! In Part One, we will go over the four Rogue Heroes. In Part Two, we'll cover the Noble Heroes.

    @taemeister9302 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Therion is the best character to start with by a mile. Not only can he steal stuff to carry you easily through the game, he is the only one that can open the special purple chests. It sucks to not have therion when you are in front of these chests which is usually located in the middle of a hostile zone.

  • @mothlantern
    @mothlantern 6 ปีที่แล้ว +41

    Maining Cyrus: reveal every enemy's weakness
    Maining Therion: can always open chests
    Probably both! And also Ophilia. I can't imagine not wanting a healer, and I'm very invested in her story. Good thing they give us nine save slots, yes?

    • @WishfulGamer
      @WishfulGamer  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Luckily, you get to meet up with all eight heroes on your journey. But I don't think I'd even use most of the heroes. I'm the kinda guy who picks his main party and sticks with it. I'll probably recruit all of them, just in case I need their path actions, and to complete their stories all the way through, but I'm already sure of my main party.

  • @Flareboxx
    @Flareboxx 6 ปีที่แล้ว +29

    Great video! I'm starting as Cyrus :) I didn't have an issue starting as Primrose in the original demo though. Even though she's best as a supportive unit, always having a strong ally allured helped throughout the tough battles. Looking forward to part 2! Will you say who your personal pick will be?

    • @WishfulGamer
      @WishfulGamer  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks for stopping by! I appreciate the insightful comment. Hope we'll see more of you. I really like Cyrus, too. I want this two part series to be more about helping you guys find your perfect main, but I may put my personal choice in the second video, since it's a Noble character :)
      (I will say, out of the four rogues, I would pick H'aanit)

    • @Flareboxx
      @Flareboxx 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yeah you could just briefly mention it at the end? You could still make the focus of the video about unbiased facts. H'aanit is definitely a cool character! Her and Cyrus definitely seem to have the most variety out of all rogue characters.

      Live Phive I’m honestly blown away by the amazingly positive reception on these videos. I’ve never had someone say such nice things to me before, especially multiple people over a span of months. This has been the best span of time in my entire life, the reception to my videos has far surpassed my expectations. Thank you so much, it’s like I’m in a dream come true, and it keeps getting better. I love making these so much, and it really makes my heart happy to know that others enjoy what I’m putting out into the world. The internet is such a cold place sometimes, and it blows me away that so many people can say such nice things. Keeps being you, and know that a small comment like that goes a long way. Sorry for the ramble, but this made me emotional lol.

    I personally went with Primrose. You have access to a great array of knifes that can make her whatever you want! I grabbed knives with high elemental attack and she turned into a BEAST. Have her the scholar job- PERFECT SYNERGY.
    I struggled at first, but realized if you have a stash of berries and Midnight Waltz, you can clear much more than you think.

  • @samuelbrabham8477

    Out of the rouge heroes, I would choose Primrose. She's my favorite so far, and she is the first character I chose in the first demo, also having the ability to always summon a fifth character is nice. The first hero I AM choosing is Olberic he is pretty dang powerful and I think his story is a little under rated. My first two choices are the first two heroes that were reveled and playable in a demo, lol. :P

    • @WishfulGamer
      @WishfulGamer  6 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @destendgem
    @destendgem 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thing about Allure and Guide is that the summoned person stays out for a few turns, and basically works as a bonus attack on top of your natural attack. I got Ophilia to Guide a Dancer from Sunshade. She has a multi hit dagger attack and offense buffs that helped me cream my first Chapter 2 boss.

  • @egeorgiades93
    @egeorgiades93 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    For an Analyze Completionist Run, Cyrus is the safe way to go since all you need to do is face the same enemy up to 5 times and they are cleared up in searching for Weakness.
    For a Fun Run where you can get cool stuff right away, Therion is a good pick, since if you get him then H’anitt; you can steal the Golden Hammer from the old guy in the Apotho Town.

    But before getting the legendary ones it will be:

    wish i wouldve known who you choose first is ALWAYS in your party (minus origin quests). I chose Therion and i think that was a mistake.. hes really not that great of a character outside his ability to steal some of the best items early on if you kno where to look. Anyways i thought about it and what character would i most likely ALWAYS want in my party and the option seems pretty obvious to me. While starting off with JUST a healer in Primrose could be difficult, with her ability to summon you not really ever alone. Choosing her ensure now i Always have my Healer with me and can rotate everyone else per situation. If anyone else has good strategy for who to start with would love to hear it.

    Started off with Therion yesterday and recently recruited Primrose. Gonna star with recruiting all the Rogue characters first before going on to recruit the noble ones later.
    My reason for starting off with Therion is just that he's full of angst and an edgelord, it's that he is an edgelord going around begrudgingly aiding and recruiting all these other characters that are fantastic in their own ways.

    As far as dmg goes H'aanit is a beast. No other character comes even close to the dmg of her beasts. It doesn't matter if it's magic or if it's physical. She has 4 weapons since the start of the game (her main pet has a lance attack and a sword attack). The only bad thing is that her beasts target random enemies (unless they have an area attack) what makes her exceptionally good destroying the bosses. I still preefer Tressa but she is my second favourite to start because she has a good dmg, good weapon flexibility and the capturing and fighting with pokemon feature.

Alf is better at getting info and has the best healing options; Tressa collects mad dough where ever you go so you can afford anything (though purchase is inferior to steal in my book)... well you get the idea outside of DPS Scholar has not been enjoyable as a class even if all the story elements are good.
    Really find it hard to not suggest Therion or Tressa for growth reasons. H'aant for general badassery.
    I have no desire to start as Olbrek or Prim (revenge stories are meh by default to me).

    I'm torn between Tressa and H'aanit. Tressa is super adorable and her abilities are useful for getting items, but H'aanit is the better fighter and seems to be the most fun in combat.

      Yami I guess that would boil down to, would you prefer a Noble or a Rogue as your main? Luckily, you can have both in your party, but which one would you rather be identified with? That’s kinda how I’m going about it. I’m picking the one I resonate with most.

      After about 8 different playthroughs that ended with being "lock outed" by the 3 hour time limit I decided Tressa would be my lead. I love how she finds gold randomly when entering an area and can get literally thousands of gold from bosses, not to mention discounts. My plan is have her for the money and Therion for the thievery. I figure if I can't steal it I can buy it. Also I can't be the only one hoping one of the future bosses has a really cool item on them in the future chapter.

    These ones are my personal favourites as starters. Here’s a brief vague summary of what they do.
    Olberic: “I see I can talk to you... FIGHT ME!” Accidentally level up too high from beating the shit out of everyone in town.
    Therion: “yoink, yoink, yoink... 80%? Please... easy yoi- FUCK!” Basically get free stuff and sit back and laugh until you realise you are unlucky as fuck and get your first 96% chance failure.
    Tressa: “Yay money! Yay stuff from randoms! Wait... what am I doing again?” Basically print money but don’t use it. If you do you might start grinding for every item. But once you get a thief you’ll realise how crazy you had become.
    Cyrus: “I am the sexiest terrorist in all the land... so tell me, how can I blow you up best.” Destroy hordes find weaknesses... pretty simple stuff... then you get silenced and the room goes dark and the screams of the damned start echoing in your ears until you come to the revaluation to use a herb but you just keep scrolling, your beating stick doing very little to the threat and no matter how hard you hit it doesn’t drown out the screaming as you try to fend off the monsters with your weak fragile body. Then you can use magic again and it’s fine.

    Seems such a shame to not mention Therion's lockpicking ability. Having him as your starter means you will always be able to open up the locked purple chests.

    I think you're supposed to start with Ophilia since with the Octopath anagram fits with
    Ophilia
    Cyrus
    Tressa
    Olberic
    Primrose
    Alfyn
    Thereon
    H'aanit
    That's the order that they're in the map and the opening scene of everyone walking.

  • @Jamick98Geass
    @Jamick98Geass 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I went in blind and picked Olberic. Now that I've unlocked all eight characters, I'd suggest starting with Haanit, Olberic, Therion or Cyrus. You can't make a "wrong" choice per say, but I'd recommend not starting with Alfyn or Ophelia. Until they get second classes, the roles they play in combat and in town are pretty limited, and they have some of the weaker storylines in my opinion.

    I am on my first playthrough(I know VERY late to the party) but my decision goes first playthrough is pick, play and main the characters that interest me most(that for me is Cyrus).
    Then on next completionist game is pick, main and play the best characters to take. 👍
