There are also like 3 different items that transform Spellcaster-types into Summoners as well (2 whips, and some other shit). (although there is shit later, fountains/items/etc, that can change her alignment and gender, and actually i do believe there is also a Mask-helment for evil-females that transforms into a Kunoichi). The Wiz Empire-only class of the female ninja, the Kunoichi, is super OP however and recommend building one (towards one, as making one from initial char gen would require like 3 days re-rolling bonus points) so make sure make your initial party Thief female and evil. SLOW) but i can't recall any good bows whatsoever. it is precisely because i had one from beginning to end that i can wholeheartedly testify that unlike Starfish's later games (Elminage series on PSP/PC) where they have awesome Bows for the ranger-type class (plus a class-specific attack ability that is insanely good), in their Wiz Empire games the ranger is literally just a gimped Fighter with super slow access to Alchemy (he learns them almost at the same slow rate Bishops learn their own respective spells, i.e. I actually do not really recommend spending tender-loving-care in having a Ranger in your crew even though in my playthrough i had one. Their Attributes are horrible, of course, and but i mean, what else do ya want. Yes, in Empire 2 i seem to remember classes like Valkyrie require a Title unlock or at least, in the beta-versions i played through i was never able to create a Valk from scratch.īerserker/Almighty classes are 100% locked with ridiculously steep requirements (titles).Īs Courtier says in Empire 1-3 games the Summoner classes is GREAT as they learn summoning and Alchemy and Psionics. My pure Fighter has more HP and hits harder than anybody else in the party, and like a Thief levels extremely fast but can't behead, cast or use most of the fancy weapons I came across incredibly strong Monk equipment and bows, and the hybrid classes learn psy/alch spells faster than the Summoner. So just keep checking in every now and thenĮDIT: also you don't HAVE to classchange, in fact not ever changing will give characters a large HP, THAC0 and spell power boost by virtue of having wasted no exp (although in this game classchanging often and quickly leveling back up allows HP stacking)Īll classes have strong specific equipment waiting for them, but I'd really recommend a Bishop and Summoner just for making your life easier (money and meat shield/misc spells)Įvery class has pros and cons, for example I have a Kunoichi instead of a Thief who has powerful weapons available to them, but gets AC bonus slower than a Ninja and often gets half the party killed by failing at traps.


I have no idea what the exact requirements are but all of the classes except Almighty and Berserker unlocked one by one for me through regular play, I think a key element is also amount of titles unlocked (you'll get most by just killing loads of enemies).
