Depending on your starting hero, you’ll gain equipment, items, money or some combination of all three. Explore every screen you’re allowed to explore without being told that “you can’t go there” by an in-game prompt. Each setup is very similar in that you’ll have access to a tiny village, complete with errant treasure chests, some of which are hidden behind structures. The first thing you need to do when you gain control of your character is explore the small town. Buy a few cheap upgrades immediatelyĬharacters start with a barebones loadout that you can upgrade immediately with a bit of thrifty spending. To better get a handle on which exact character to choose first, read our Octopath Traveler character guide for a more detailed breakdown of the strengths and weaknesses of each individual hero. Mages are glass cannons (strong but vulnerable to damage) and warriors are a little more hardy with higher HP counts, more defense and access to better armor or weapons. There are a few exceptions (Alfyn and Tressa straddle the line between both), but that’s generally the type of play they slot into. H’aanit, Olberic, Therion and Tressa slot in the latter. Alfyn, Cyrus, Ophilia and Primrose fit into the former category. The simplest way to break down the two archetypes of all eight heroes is to categorize them as mages and warriors. To ensure those inaugural moments aren’t a slog, you’re going to want to pick someone who works with your personal playstyle. Choose a character you’re the most comfortable withĪfter the first several hours of any given adventure, you’ll start wandering the world map and meeting new party members, at which point the game opens up and becomes more like a traditional Japanese role-playing game. This guide will help you get on your feet in the first few hours so that the next 40 will be a breeze. There’s also a lot to consider beyond that choice. While all of them will eventually meet up and become one big family, your first choice will define your initial playstyle. Octopath Traveler begins with the unique requirement to choose between eight different protagonists.
