@forgottenlor, I have some questions that I hope you can answer, and I wanted to ask in this thread for the benefit of anyone else who is playing or had the same questions.
About class change. I'm level 10 and have some options now. I'm curious, can I level a new class up and then switch back to my old class, retaining the benefits and extra skill from the new class?
Example: I can change my Cleric to a Summoner. Can I level the Summoner class up a few levels to get the spells and bonuses of that class, and then switch back to Cleric later and retain all that stuff?
What exactly do you retain when you change classes? I would love to experiment a bit here. Here are my thoughts.
I'd like to change my Alchemist to a Valkyrie (at level 11, because I need one more point in Agility to be able to switch. This would give me a much-needed 3rd melee attacker in my party.)
I would also like to change my Cleric to a Summoner, which I can do right now, in order to learn some summons or whatever type of magic summoning offers. It seems like an interesting class choice and could benefit my party big-time. Reading your post, though, suggests I need to level my Cleric up to 15 at least to get access to all the best spells of her class.
Lastly, I'd like to change my Mage to a Bishop, simply to have the ability to identify items, so I can identify them without losing money and also start turning a profit on pretty much all '?' items. But as you said, later Wizard spells are necessary, so maybe I could level the Bishop up a few levels then switch to level up Wizard some more, and then back again later? Would that be efficient?
All 3 of the main classes are level 10 right now.
So, more tips on this aspect of the game would be great.
The class change options in this game add a whole new level of depth, strategy and fun to the game. Seems like you can make a really interesting blend of characters.
