This is a guide to the best party members you can choose for specific chapters in Romancing Saga 2: Revenge of the Seven. This guide lists our recommended characters to include in your party as well as when to change your party members per chapters!
List of Contents
Recommended Party Members (Emperor Gerard)
| Emperor | |||
|---|---|---|---|
 Gerard |
|||
| Retinues | |||
 Bear |
 James |
 Therese |
 Aries |
Add Court Mage Aries
After Gerard inherits the Emperor's abilities, add Aries to your party. Aries can use Life Water to heal your party members and have a decent-sized BP for spell casting which is the mage's main source of combat power.
Learn Cross Cut Before Fighting Kzinssie Again
Kzinssie's main weakness is the holy element similar to your first fight with him in Somon. If Gerard and Bear can both learn Cross Cut, you can deal absurd amounts of damage to Kzinssie especially if you use Overdrive with both of their attacks.
Cross Cut is a skill that can be glimmered from Double Cut so be sure to always use your sword to raise its proficiency and use the said skill for a chance to learn it!
Recommended Party Members (First Inheritance)
| Emperor | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Mercenary | |||
| Retinues | |||
| Heavy Infantry | Light Infantry | Martial Artist | Court Mage |
Assign Mercenary as the Emperor
The Mercenary has good proficiency with melee weapons. Assigning the Mercenary as the new emperor will allow you to capitalize its strong proficiency to these weapons together with its strong offensive stats.
Equip Vagabond's Heeled Sandals
The Female Vagabond Heeled Sandal as her default footwear. These can be equipped on any character and give access to the powerful Trample Martial Arts Tech. Give it to a Martial Artist-specialized attacker to upgrade their offensive power.
To recruit the Vagabond, you'll have to complete Avalon's Cat Burglar to unlock the class.
Avalon's Cat Burglar Quest Walkthrough
Add a Martial Artist to your Retinue
The Martial Artist has high offensive power and speed, and is a good party member to add to your retinue.
To unlock the class, you'll have to do the The Mighty Martial Artists by visiting Nibel.
How to Unlock Martial Artist Class
Give Your Martial Artist Berserk Resisting Gear
Martial Artists and characters that use Martial Arts can learn Berserk, a Tech that raises their attack power but locks out their other Techs, forcing them to use only basic attacks.
Equip characters with Berserk with armor and accessories that prevent the Berserk status ailment like the Somon Ring, allowing them to benefit from the attack boost while ignoring the disadvantages.
Recommended Party Members (After The Corsairs' Dilemma)
| Emperor | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Corsair | |||
| Retinues | |||
| Crusader | Light Infantry | Martial Artist | Court Mage |
Make the Corsair the Emperor
Complete The Corsairs' Dilemma side quest to unlock the Corsair class and promote your Corsair to Emperor.
You can do this by abdicating the throne and passing the title to your current Corsair.
The Corsairs' Dilemma Quest Walkthrough
Corsair Allows you to Learn the Rapid Stream Formation
The main reason we want the Corsair as the emperor is to learn the Rapid Stream formation. Not only will this formation increase the whole team's speed, but it will also allow your whole team to attack first every battle.
All Formations List and Recommended Formations
Corsair Emperor Has Maritime Experience
After completing Cumberland's quest line, you may encounter the quest Developing Comroon Strait.
This quest will kick off a brief sea navigation section that unlocks a sea route connecting Cumberland to Comroon.
A Corsair Emperor is required to complete this quest, since they have maritime experience.
Add a Crusader to the Retinue
You can unlock the Crusader class by completing the side quest A Problem of Succession
in Cumberland. Once done, you'll be able to add the Crusader as a Retinue in the tavern.
Not only does the Male Crusader have a high strength, but it also has decent defensive stats which can be a good replacement for our Heavy Infantry unit.
The Female Crusader has good magical abilities with good defenses, making her a strong support character.
A Problem of Succession Quest Walkthrough
Recommended Party Members (After Forming the Imperial Guard)
| Emperor | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Imperial Guard | |||
| Retinues | |||
| Impreial Blacksmith | Mercenary | Martial Artist | Court Mage |
Make the Imperial Guard the Emperor
Once you have unlocked 9 regions, you'll be able to unlock the Imperial Guard class which has high strengths and good compatibility with close range weapons.
The female imperial guard has a higher compatibility with swords which synergizes well with the emperor's starting sword affinity so transitioning to this class can boost your stats as well as your sword proficiency even further.
Add the Imperial Blacksmith to your Retinue
You can unlock the Imperial Blacksmith by completing the Pride of the Fabri Family event.
While this class is not the best in terms of combat, it can increase your damage and defense by 10% passively which makes it a great party member to include in general.
Imperial Blacksmith as Emperor can Learn the Iron Forge Formation
When an Imperial Blacksmith is the emperor, talking to the soldier in the training center can unlock the said formation. It increases the damage and defenses of all units which makes it another great formation to consider.
Learn Coppelia's Poker Face Ability
Coppelia's Poker Face ability allows you to negate all status ailments and debuffs which makes it one of the best abilities in the game.
Step-by-Step Guide to Getting Poker Face
| 1 | Recruit Coppelia by starting her quest at Somon. This event unlocks after a third generational shift onwards. |
|---|---|
| 2 | Add Coppelia to your party until her quest is completed. |
| 3 | Make Coppelia the emperor then abdicate the throne. |
| 4 |  Interact with the non-functioning Coppelia on the far right room on the 2nd floor of Avalon Castle. |
Take note that Coppelia can only be recruited once per playthrough so consider this before trying to get her abilities.
Learn New Abilities from Your Unlocked Classes
| Class (Weapon) | Ability |
|---|---|
| Strategist Junctiion |
Increases damage of spells by 10% |
| Amazon Spear and Bow |
Fine Attack Increases damage by 10% when HP is full. |
| Desert Guard Great Sword |
Tech and BP consumption reduction Reduces BP consumption by 20% |
| Ninja Great Sword, Martial Art |
Weakness Hitter Increases damage against enemy weak points by 15% |
| Salamander | Axe, Martial Arts |
| Dancer | Short Sword, Bow |
The strategist's specialties vary depending on the character
After unlocking the Imperial Guard, you will also have access to several other classes. Focus on learning new skills from these by adding them to your Retinue and learning the skills by glimmering them.
We highly recommend learning Guanyin for the Ninja and the Dark Blade from the Desert Guard as these are strong skills for the said weapon type that they can spark much faster.
Recommended Party Members (Final Emperor)
| Emperor | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Final Emperor | |||
| Retinues | |||
| Ninja | Saigo Clasnman | Salamander | Strategist |
Ninja is a strong Unarmed Class
During the Final Emperor phase, we highly recommend characters that can deal huge amounts of damage. The Ninja with its Martial Artist prowess is highly recommended as they can use the Berserk -> Guanyin combo that can deal absurd amounts of damage.
For supporting characters, the Salamander and Strategist are great options to consider for the supportive techs and buffs. Lastly, the Saigo Clansman is a good tanker that is much more durable than the Heavy Infantry and is a good frontliner to finish the team setup.
The Final Emperor Cannot be Changed
Once you have the Final Emperor on the throne, it will no longer be possible to change your current emperor. You'll unlock the Final Emperor after defeating five of the seven heroes so be sure to plan out your game first before proceeding to the final stages of the game.
