* AwesomeButImpractical: ''Grand Smash.'' Leapinig twenty feet into the air and unleashing a massive GroundPound on an entire enemy team with [[FullHealthBonus potentially]] 150% attack potency without needing to spend a turn charging up first sounds awesome on paper, but its low base accuracy combined with the Berserker's already poor aim and the fact that it's a ground-based attack that always misses agaisnt flying units, makes it rather impractical in practice.

* {{Expy}}: They are similar to the Myrmidon and Swordmaster classes in the ''Franchise/FireEmblem'' series, though themed around ''Literature/TheThreeMusketeers'', instead of {{Samurai}}. They are sword fighters that use [[FragileSpeedster speed]] and [[CriticalHitClass critical hits]] to deliver the killing blow. They also have a multi-hit attack, similar to the Astra skill that is associated with Swordmasters in ''Fire Emblem''.

* KickChick: The Shaman's Bonestaff is a staff exclusive to the Shaman. It increases the Shaman's physickal attack and grants her the ''Cursed Strike'' active skill, which allows her to physickally attack the single target. It [[ArmorPiercingAttack ignores half of the enemy's defense]] and deal extra potency if [[InjuredVulnerability the enemy is inflicted with debuffs]]. The active skill is represented by an animation showing the Shaman kicking the target.

* {{Mook}}: Even among infantry, Housecarls are pretty low on the totem pole. Tellingly, despite the game highlighting their strengths through NPC dialogue and its in-game tips section, only one major character (Aubin) among the dozens you can recruit in the game is of this class.

Tellingly, despite the game highlighting their strengths through NPC dialogue and its in-game tips section, only one major character (Aubin) among the dozens you can recruit in the game is of this class, and he's optional to boot.

* BrutishCharacterBrutishWeapon: Contrast to the chivalrous Knights and Radiant Knights, the Dark Knights wield axes to represent their savage and risky technique.

** ''Dark Flame'' requires 30% of Doom Knight's HP to use the active skill, which deals both physickal and magickal damage and inflict Burn to a row of enemies. It also gains +50 potency when used against [[InjuredVulnerability a debuffed enemy]].

* MagikarpPower: Dark Knights are often considered a terrible class. Poor tactics and equipment loadouts can even have them attacking ''before'' they take damage, making their usual buff useless after they themselves are hit. Doom Knights on the other hand are terrifying once they hit level 20. They are the centerpiece to a scary team comp involving a shaman and a witch which guarantees Dark Flame will one shot an entire row.

* DualWielding: Swordmasters gain the ability to equip a second sword. They will use the highest attack value between both their swords but will benefit from the passive stat bonuses and skills of both weapons, and (after a patch) half of the attack value of the weaker weapon.

* DefendCommand: Fighters have the guard skill, Quick Guard, and the cover skill, Arrow Cover. Arrow Cover is practically a godsend for flying units, as the Fighter can protect them from archers that prioritizes targeting them.

* LoopholeAbuse: Elven Archer attacks are magical in nature, and will melt Hoplites despite their resembling the arrows they usually block without issue. And they'll usually do the same to a Fighter. However, their attacks are also registered as ranged physickal attacks, so if a Fighter blocks them with Arrow Cover, they will receive no damage from them.

* SupportPartyMember: Half of the paladin's kit is built around aiding their unit and other allies: they can ''Heal'' in battle for native point, and an in-range unit on the field for one Valor Point; ''Resist Magick Attack'' as a leader effect makes their unit safer in range of mage-led enemy units; and the combination of ''Holy Barrier'' and ''Holy Guard'' for in-battle defences for both themselves and their teammates' survivability.

* AchillesHeel: Any units with [[AlwaysAccurateAttack truestrike attacks]]. Since truestrike attacks will always hit the target, the thief's ''Evade'' skill becomes useless against them and will likely receive a mortal blow. Gets flipped on its head when they promote into Rogues and learn ''Shadowbite'', which inflicts blindness on an entire row of enemies. Blind enemies will ''always'' miss their next attack, even with truestrike attacks, making Rogues a solid means of protecting your team's fliers and fragile speedsters from enemy Fencers and Hunters.

* SquishyWizard: Like most healing units besides the Radiant and Sainted Knight, naturally, but like their Winged counterparts the Featherstaff, this is compounded by their being flying units, which draws the ire of AI archers, who are typically set to prioritize any flying units.

* GoThroughMe: Their "Sacrifice" passive has them leap out to take a direct hit ''without'' guarding first, despite the shield they all carry, as a PlayerNudge to assign them to only tank the magic spells they're built to endure, which can't be guarded against anyway. In exchange, they get a hefty 2 PP to spend on their many useful passives.

* DifficultButAwesome: Sellswords do not have traditional Infantry strengths while having all the typical weaknesses. Properly equipped and programmed, they can spend an entire fight passively attacking whenever an ally does or whenever they're being assaulted, refunding the points they use for both on top of their primary attacks.

* MagikarpPower: Dark Knights are often considered a terrible class. Doom Knights on the other hand are terrifying once they hit level 20. They are the center piece to a scary team comp involving a shaman and a witch which guarantees Dark Flame will one shot an entire row.
