Is there any point to having a physical attacker? I want to add Linear Warriors, Quadratic Wizards about how Warriors (and the Strength stat) very quickly becomes almost completely useless, but I wanted to make sure I'm not missing anything.

Physical builds are surprisingly viable. While a Strength focus may not be as consistently useful as magic, a Dex build can be. Additionally, the Desperate Hit and Riot Gun skills are easily two of the best skills in the game. Magic is certainly the path of least resistance, but it's nowhere near as bad as it could be.

I just pump points into Dexterity, followed by Agility, then Magic, then Luck. Strength comes dead last.

(If you're wondering why then I have more physical power than gun power: I equipped an all-targeting gun. With regards to stats: Incenses.)

Charge + Hades Blast or Berserker God on a Physical-based demon can easily destroy anything that isn't ≥resistant to Physical. Add the necessary High Pleormas and you've got yourselves a killing machine that does four-digit damage as a relaxation hobby. Also, Physical and Gun attacks have Critical Hit chances, unlike magic attacks.

  • Ragnarök Proofing: The Gauntlets have been in use for almost fifteen centuries. Man, the Demonica tech was built to last!

I'm a bit unsure about this, considering that Gauntlets are stores in the Samurai quarters and it's possible that the Samurai regularly maintain them through procedures and Gauntlet manuals handed down over centuries. Then again, spare parts are impossible to come by in the technologically-backwards Mikado, and the way to Tokyo has been sealed off for a millenium and a half, so it's possible this trope is still in effect.

Does Hope Bringer belong in the main page,or the character page? Given the way one of the quests in the Neutral end turns out...
