The Hero is your silent protagonist and the most versatile character in the game. He excels in both physical combat and supportive magic, making him an indispensable member of your party. His unique skill tree, 'Courage', grants access to powerful healing spells, stat buffs, and even a full-party revive spell later in the game. For weapon skills, the Hero can specialize in Swords, Spears, or Boomerangs.
Recommended Builds:
- Sword & Courage Hybrid: This is a popular and highly effective build. Invest heavily in Swords for powerful single-target damage abilities like 'Falcon Slash' and 'Dragon Slash'. Simultaneously, put points into Courage to unlock essential healing spells like 'Heal' and 'Midheal', as well as the crucial 'Omniheal' and 'Fullheal' later on. This build makes the Hero a strong damage dealer who can also keep the party alive.
- Boomerang & Courage Support: For a more area-of-effect (AoE) focused Hero, invest in Boomerangs. This allows him to hit all enemies with a single attack, which is excellent for clearing groups of weaker foes. Combine this with Courage for healing and support. This build is less about raw single-target damage but provides excellent utility.
Prioritize Courage early for healing, then focus on your chosen weapon skill. The Hero's versatility makes him adaptable to almost any situation.
