.hack//GU Vol. 2: Reminisce Characters Feature
Haseo- Adept Rogue- Haseo is the leader of the battle party. At the start of the game, he can wield both dual swords and broadswords, and later gains a third weapon type, the scythe. Versatile and powerful, Haseo is a force to be reckoned with.
Atoli- Harvest Cleric- Atoli is the one character in your group suited to healing and support. She wields a staff in battle and isn’t afraid to smack any enemies who get close to her. Some of the difficult enemies will overwhelm her up close, so be sure to keep her safe so she can keep your group healed and fighting. Also, keep an eye on Atoli’s SP. She can run out quickly if you’re not careful.
Kuhn- Steam Gunner- Kuhn adds many things to a group with his steam gun. His attacks are specialized for long-range combat and are capable of knocking enemies backwards. Kuhn is best suited for attacking flying enemies as well as those who like to run away to cast spells from a distance. He also makes a decent backup healer once he learns a few healing spells. Kuhn’s long-range positioning in battles makes it easier for him to cast heals without interruption.
Pi-Tribal Grappler- Pi uses her fists to dish out many hits in combo attacks. While she does possess high agility and HP, her defense is fairly low, so armored and aerial enemies give her a hard time. Pi works well in any group combination but partnering Atoli, Sakubo, Gaspard, or Kuhn with her will balance the group for any type of enemy encounter.
Silabus- Blade Brandier- Silabus fights with a sword similar to a katana. While not particularly strong in any areas, he is powerful ally to add to the group. Attacking the same enemies Silabus is fighting will charge the group’s Morale gauge faster. Together with Pi and Haseo, the group will be able to use more Awakenings.
Gaspard- Shadow Warlock- Gaspard wields a grimoire into battles and is a very reliable group member. He can cast a variety of attack spells, as well as heal the group in a pinch. Gaspard’s true calling is in the Crimson VS card battle game. He is currently the reigning champion and you will have to defeat him to claim the number 1 spot.
Piros the 3rd- Lord Partizan- Piros the 3rd is the only group member capable of wielding the deadly lance. He has very good physical defenses but suffers more damage when hit with magic. Piros the 3rd also has lance skills that will make dealing with aerial enemies much easier. Partnering with Piros the 3rd negates the need to have a long range attack member, so pairing him with Atoli and Haseo works well.
Alkaid- Twin Blade- Alkaid specializes in high agility and rapid attacks, making it very difficult for enemies to find an opening to counterattack. Alkaid teams up well with Haseo and a casting/healing class character such as Sakubo, Atoli, or Gaspard.
Sakubo- Shadow Warlock- Sakubo equips a grimoire in battle and has access to some of the most devastating spells in the game. Her spells are well suited to disrupting groups of enemies from a distance while racking up combo chains. She is weak during close combat but once she gets some breathing room, Sakubo can work over her enemies.
