* ShoutOut: Rising Force is named after an album of the same name by Music/YngwieMalsteen.

* CoolButInefficient: Despite the elements pattern system the class line is touted for, only a handful of combinations are commonly used in practice. This is notable with Runeslayer's Multiplying Magic and the Tetrastreamer Class Champion Weapon making the chore of building Magic Circles a non-issue.

[[center: [- [[Characters/GranblueFantasyTheEternals The Eternals]] | [[Characters/GranblueFantasyZodiacCharacters Zodiacs]] | [[Characters/GranblueFantasyEvokers Evokers]] ([[Characters/GranblueFantasyNier Nier]]) | [[Characters/GranblueFantasyEventCharacters Event Characters]] -] ]]

* DifficultButAwesome: Aether Bane's stacks improves Aether Blast III damage tremendously, but it's debuff duration is not reset, so you want to track on the duration before you can cast your nukes, especially if you're using Laser Focus on tandem.

* ItOnlyWorksOnce: The Manadiver's Overtrance is an exceptionally powerful skill that effectively grants you infinite charge bar for 6 turns, enabling some extremely powerful strategies in the right hands, but it can only be cast once for the whole battle.

* SuperEmpowering: Overtrance grants user the Overtrance buff that makes it so charge attacks and abilities won't consume your current charge bar on top of maximizing your current charge bar to 100%. The buff lasts 6 turns, and also doesn't drain your charge bar when activating your Manatura. The catch is that you can only casts it once, and there's a 3 turn lockout before you can start flooring it.

* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: Gladiator is so far the only class where you have to master an EX-class (Sword Master) to unlock it.

* CripplingOverspecialization: Without access to Multiplying Magic, which is unlockable after completing the class's Ultimate Mastery, the class needs its related Class Champion Weapon to have a constant and fast source of building Magic Circles.

* MagikarpPower: The Runeslayer is fairly awkward to use without their Class Champion Weapon, and having to use their Class Champion Weapon means gimping their damage output due to its innate lack of damage boosting weaponskills. It isn't until achieving Ultimate Mastery that the Runeslayer manages to truly mitigate its greatest weakness of reliance on Magic Circles.

* PowerUpLetdown: The Kengo's Ultimate Mastery skills are quite disappointing. Nocked Exorcism requires a bow mainhand, which currently sees very little use on them due to the Unsigned Kaneshige's power, Secret Style: Blink Slash has a incredibly strong effect of inflicting Delay after each attack, but only lasts 3 turns and has a prohibitively long cooldown of ''12 turns'', and Intuition tries to turn the Kengo into a counterattack-based character without any form of hostility boosting.

* ModestyShorts: In ''Relink'', both Djeeta's regular dress and new outfit have a pair of shorts underneath, so as to avoid any inappropriate shots in gameplay.

* ItOnlyWorksOnce: The Manadiver's Overtrance is an exceptionally powerful skill that effectively grants you infinite charge var for 6 turns, enabling some extremely powerful strategies in the right hands, but it can only be cast once for the whole battle.

* SuperEmpowering: Overtrance grants user Overtrance buff that makes it so charge attacks and abilities won't consume your current charge bar on top of maximizing your current charge bar to 100%. The buff lasts 6 turns and it also doesn't drain your charge bar when activating your Manatura. The catch is that you can only casts it once, and there's a 3 turn lockdown before you can start flooring it.
* TooAwesomeToUse: Manadiver has the Overtrance spell that you can't recast, and it's downright devastating in the right hand.

* CoolButInefficient: Despite the elements pattern system the class line is touted for, only a handful of combinations are commonly used in practice. This is notable with Runeslayer's Multiplying Magic and the Tetrastream Class Champion Weapon making the chore of building Magic Circles a non-issue.

* CripplingOverspecialization: Zigzagged. The Kengo definitely wants their CCW, not because they're weak without it (they can function just fine even with other katanas), but because of how ''loaded'' the weapon itself is.
* DeathByAThousandCuts: Kengo's "No More Doubt" grants the caster's Tri-Strike, which allows the user to potentially strike 9 times in a row if you can proc triple attack for each strike, which you can easily manipulate through grids or party member's skills.

* PowerUpLetdown: The Kengo's Ultimate Mastery skills are quite disappointing. Nocked Exorcism requires a bow mainhand, which currently sees very little use on them due to the Unsigned Kaneshige's power, Secret Style: Blink Slash has a incredibly strong effect, but only lasts 3 turns and has a prohibitively long cooldown of ''12 turns'', and Intuition tries to turn the Kengo into a counterattack-based character without any form of hostility boosting.

* MagikarpPower: The Soldier's power is greatly influenced by the bullets they have loaded, and crafting the stronger bullets eats up a ''lot'' of materials, facilitating another heavy grind, but the payoff is highly worth it. Soldier also wants to reach at least Master Level 20 to make their choice of guns ''far'' less restrictive, as it lets them reload their bullets after a charge attack even without the John Doe.

Mages who use their unique mystical powers to provide potent to the party, and later draw on the power of the night and cats to augment their abilities.

* AwesomeButImpractical: The Secret Gears are fantastically versatile and can provide a wide array of utilities. The catch is that the Secret Gears are single-use items, and crafting some of them are prohibitively expensive, some of them requires you to spent some endgame resources like Revan-series raids loots, relegating the class to a gimmick that is mostly used as a last resort for highly difficult fights.

* PowerCreep: A Mechanic with Energy Maneuver allows the player to give quick access to an instant full-party charge bar fill. The longer cooldown it has and the Mechanic's own limited utility causes the class to eventually be overshadowed by the Relic Buster.

* HeroesPreferSwords: Their canonical appearances are depicted using a sword and they have exclusively been using swords in the anime. In a sense of GameplayAndStoryIntegration, some ScriptedBattles of later story events will place the Captain into their initial Fighter class, whose default is a shortsword.

* TheAgeless: Possibly. As of this writing, Lyria and Vyrn explicitly mention how nine years have passed since the start of their adventures, yet Gran/Djeeta are still considered to be 15 years old. It's quite possible their lifelink with Lyria after they initially died may have stopped their physical aging, which chronologically puts them at 24 years old.

* ArcherArchetype

* ArcherArchetype: Even more so than their Ranger-derived predecessor, not having other mainhand option other than bows.

-->'''Class Line''': Ninja, Runeslayer
-->'''Class Champion Weapons''': Muramasa -> Tetrastreamer

* CoolButInefficient: Most players tends to use Ninja for reliable (key word; [[DifficultButAwesome reliable]]) access to Paralyze and DEF Down, because trying to do anything else requires you to read a guide on their elemental patterns to make good use of it.
* CripplingOverspecialization: Without access to ''Multiplying Magic'', which is unlockable after completing the class's Ultimate Mastery, the class needs its related Class Champion Weapon to have a similar effect.

* ElementalPowers: The Ninja/Runeslayer class utilizes elemental mastery

-->'''Class Line''': Samurai, Kengo
-->'''Class Champion Weapon''': Murakumo -> Unsigned Kaneshige

-->'''CCW:''' Arabesque > Rudolfina

** The Six Dragons refer to them as the "singular pigment" that interferes with the coloration of the natural order.

* CooldownManipulation: Sabotage cuts all skill cooldown by 1 turn. Likewise, Vengeance also cut debuff skill (blue border) cooldown by 1 turn, allowing the class to freely spam their abilities more often.

-->'''CCW:''' Kanabo and Ringed Armguards

-->'''Weapon Speciality''': Katana, Melee

-->'''Class Champion Weapons''': Muramasa -> Tetrastreamer\\
\\

-->'''Weapon Speciality''': Katana, Bow

-->'''Class Champion Weapon''': Murakumo -> Unsigned Kaneshige\\
\\

-->'''Weapon Speciality''': Sabre, Katana

* AchievementInIgnorance: By the time of the introduction of the Onmyoji class, the Captain has gained loads of experience that they accidentally exorcised a power-hungry spirit seal, which they've only known ''onmyodo'' as just fairy tales beforehand.

-->'''Weapon Speciality''': Sabre, Axe

-->'''Weapon Speciality''': Sabre, Spear

-->'''Weapon Speciality''': Staff, Spear

-->'''Weapon Speciality''': Staff, Dagger

-->'''Weapon Speciality''': Dagger, Gun

-->'''Weapon Speciality''': Sabre (pre-Onmyoji), Dagger, Katana (Onmyoji exclusive)

-->'''Weapon Speciality''': Bow, Gun

-->'''Weapon Speciality''': Harp, Dagger

-->'''Weapon Speciality''': Lance, Axe

-->'''Weapon Speciality''': Sabre, Katana

* AChildShallLeadThem: [[spoiler: They're a teenager but are appointed the next True King after the original True King abdicates the throne in the main story quest]].

-->'''Weapon Speciality''': Sabre, Dagger
-->'''Class Line''': Enhancer -> Arcane Dueler -> Dark Fencer -> Chaos Ruler

The Enhancer and their derived classes is a JackOfAllTrades that doesn't have certain speciality apart of boosting skill damage and stalling enemies, that's it until Dark Fencer, where they become a dedicated crowd control-oriented fighters that specializes into debuffing enemies and controlling their charge diamond flow onward. They usually equips Sabres or Daggers as their mainhand.

* PurelyAestheticGender: While Gran is the story favored protagonist, you can switch to playing as Djeeta however you please and the game story-wise will switch around according to the protagonist you're playing as. The only time it actually matters is with characters like Lilele and Herja who have skills that only benefit one gender which can be quickly circumvented by the aforementioned switch.

-->'''Class Champion Weapons''': Avenger -> Berserker Barrage

** Downplayed with Ulfhedinn, which grants the user massive buffs to attack and defenses on top of being immune to debuffs and guaranteed triple attack for four turns straight, but costs all of the user's charge bar and locks them out from using other skills. It's still a highly potent buff if Gran/Djeeta is specialized in dealing high damage with their normal attacks instead of charge attacks.

-->'''Class Champion Weapons''': Sknofung -> Guardian's Xiphos

-->'''Class Champion Weapons''': Nirvana -> Hallowed Pilgrimage

-->'''Class Champion Weapons''': Keraunos -> Demonic Longstaff

-->'''Class Champion Weapons''': Oliver -> The Storyteller

-->'''Class Champion Weapons''': Ipetam -> Original Sin

-->'''Class Champion Weapons''': Hellion Gauntlet -> Champion's Belt

-->'''Class Champion Weapons''': Rosenbogen -> Maverick

-->'''Class Champion Weapons''': Langeleik -> Chanteuse Angelique

-->'''Class Champion Weapons''': Romulus Spear -> Helmwige

-->'''Class Champion Weapons''': Proximo -> Wasserspeier

-->'''CCW:''' Tall Tale-Teller and Rip Van Winkle

-->'''CCW:''' Vanguard and Mezieres

-->'''CCW:''' Sherwood Bow

-->'''CCW:''' Prototype Reboot and Selene

-->'''CCW:''' Kusanagi

* AwesomeButImpractical: The Secret Gears are fantastically versatile and can provide a wide array of utilities. The catch is that the Secret Gears are single-use items, and crafting some of them are prohibitively expensive, relegating the class to a gimmick that is mostly used as a last resort for highly difficult fights.

* ShoutOut: Rising Force is named after an album of the same name by Music/YngwieMalsteem.

-->'''CCW:''' Faust > Psycho Syringe

-->'''Class Champion Weapons''': Muramasa -> Tetrastreamer

-->'''Class Champion Weapon''': Murakumo -> Unsigned Kaneshige

-->'''CCW''': Aschallon -> Ridill

-->'''CCW:''' Nebuchad > John Doe

-->'''CCW:''' Kapilavastu > Lunatic Broom

-->'''CCW:''' Misericorde > Devil's Finger

-->'''CCW:''' Soul Echoer > Helmholtz

%%* ThePowerOfRock: The Rising Force is the epitome of this trope.

*** Verdant Melody has a long 8 turn cooldown, but provides crucial damage cap breaking buffs for the whole party from the first cast; this culminates in the extremely rare party wide Double Strike combined with Damage Amplification **and** echo.
*** Birdsong of Balmy Breeze is a fire and forget automatic, permanent, and **unremovable** heal effect that also clears a debuff after every enemy special attack and gives party [[NoSell Dispel Cancel]] every five turns.

* QuirkyBard: Lumberjacks wielding Harps are effectively a supportive member that helps the team with their survivability using Dappled Sunlight.

* EvenTheGuysWantHim / EvenTheGirlsWantHer: The implications of the gender limitations being removed from the game for Valentine’s and White Day events, allowing any character of any gender to try and romance the captain.
