History Characters / UnicornOverlordClasses

* AlternateCompanyEquivalent: They're the equivalent of the "Pegasus Knight[=/=]Falcon Knight" class in ''Franchise/FireEmblem''. Unlike the other class examples, this is also due to the fact that Creator/{{Nintendo}} trademarked the ''very idea'' of "pegasus knights", making the change to Griffon Knights more understandable.

* BoringButPractical: They're not gonna do a lot of damage without the right set-up and they're utterly toasted by magic, but when it comes to soaking up physickal damage or protecting the back row, there's ''literally'' no better class than these guys. Arguably more practical than one of it's [[Franchise/FireEmblem franchise inspirations]], as Hoplites don't have to be party leaders, giving you the choice between negating pretty much all physickal attacks for the whole party or having the mobility of a mount; there's nothing stopping the player from having them in the front row and designating another unit as the party leader.
* GuideDangIt: The game is shy about explaining what "stage damage" ''Fortress'' would negate entails. This not only includes environmental hazards but traps, projectile valor skills, and siege weaponry such as catapults as well.

* StoneWall: Their defenses and guard rate growth are the highest possible in the game, at the cost of mediocre offence and even worse critical rates and initiative.

* StrongFleshWeakSteel: They can reliably one-shot armored classes thanks to their AntiArmor abilities, but struggle against unarmored hulks like the Gladiator that tank damage through sheer HP.

* AchillesHeel: Unlike many other flying or evasive units, Wyvern Riders are actually well-armored and sturdy enough to take a few arrows or Truestrike attacks without going down. Don't ask them about magic though.

* HealingHands: They're unusual healers in that they need to have someone else to heal them to trigger their healing effect on the rest of the party, making them a poor choice for a squad's sole source of healing. However, said healing effect is the ''strongest in the game,'' healing the ''entire party'' and being able to combo into intself if you have multiple Elven Archers in the same unit.

* InjuredVulnerability: Werefoxes excel at finishing off debuffed prey. ''Weakness Hunter'' allows werefoxes to deal an UnblockableAttack that [[ArmorPiercingAttack ignores half of their defense]] against a debuffed enemy, and ''Venom Thrust'' deals extra potency against poisoned enemies.

* StatusInflictionAttack: Specializes in these, with all but one of her attacks inflicting some sort of [[StatusEffects Affliction]]. Apart from her PoisonedWeapon above, she can also inflict [[ShieldsAreUseless Guard Seal]] with ''Piercing Thrust'' and Blind enemies with ''Shadow Pursuit''. Perhaps the most dangerous is ''Passive Hold'', which inflicts Passive Seal on enemies, preventing them from using any skills that require PP.

* MasterOfNone: Werewolves are noticeably squishier and have lower physical attack than other front-line fighters while also having considerably worse evasion than the other FragileSpeedster classes, and while they have an exceptionally high accuracy stat, they lack any innate Truestrike attacks, making them largely ineffective against enemy scouts with ''Evade''. On top of all that, none of their attacks have extra effectiveness against any particular unit type and don't inflict any debuffs, and their one support ability, ''Bestral Howl'' is one of the weakest buffs in the game, only buffing their row's physickal attack by 15% and is incapable of stacking with itself.

* {{Gainaxing}}: Gryphon Knights have huge breasts that bounce like the flaps of her gryphon's wings. [[TokenWholesome Aside from Fran's, anyways.]]

* GuideDangIt: The game is shy about explaining what "stage damage" ''Fortress'' would negate entails. This not only includes environmental hazards but traps, projectile Valor Skills, and siege weaponry such as catapults as well.

* HealingHands: They have ''Heal'' as both an Active and Valor skill.

* DefogOfWar: Her valor skill allows you to see obscured foes within the area-of-effect, like those hiding in the forest. It also provide vision in fog-of-war, which is useful in the main quest ''Legacy of the Lion Kings'', as the battlefield is completely obscured by a blizzard and you conveniently recruited Ramona in the previous main quest.

* AchillesHeel: Like thieves, they are vulnerable to classes with [[AlwaysAccurateAttack truestrike skills]], as it makes their high evasion and Nocturnal Evade useless. Downplayed somewhat in that they actually have better HP and P.Def than thieves, meaning they can typically tough out a single hit from a Fencer or Hunter... provided said hit isn't a [[CriticalHitClass critical hit.]]

* InASingleBound: Their ''Jump'' valor power lets them jump towards an ally or an enemy squad, avoiding any obstacle in-between.
* InjuredVulnerability: Werefoxes excel at finishing off debuffed prey. Weakness Hunter allows werefoxes to deal an UnblockableAttack that [[ArmorPiercingAttack ignores half of their defense]] against a debuffed enemy, and Venom Thrust deals extra potency against poisoned enemies.
* PoisonedWeapon: Venom Thrust deals a piercing attack that both poisons enemies and ''AntiRegeneration inflict a debuff that lowers their HP recovery''. It also [[InjuredVulnerability increases potency against poisoned enemies]].
* StatusInflictionAttack: Specializes in these, with all but one of her attacks inflicting some sort of [[StatusEffects Affliction]]. Apart from her PoisonedWeapon above, she can also inflict [[ShieldsAreUseless Guard Seal]] with ''Piercing Thrust'' and Blind enemies with ''Shadow Pursuit.'' Perhaps the most dangerous is ''Passive Hold'', which inflicts Passive Seal on enemies, preventing them from using any skills that require PP.

* DefendCommand: Werebears have the passive skill Heavy Guard, which allows them to automatically guards against attacks.

* DefogOfWar: Her valor skill allows you to see obscured foes within the area-of-effect, like those hiding in the forest. It also provide vision in fog-of-war, which is useful in the some quests, like ''Beyond the Swirling Sands'' ''Legacy of the Lion Kings'', as the battlefield is completely obscured by sandstorms and blizzards, respectively.

** [[rArmorPiercingAttack Armor-Piercing Attacks]]. Hoplites are the best physickal tank in the game, but that distinction ends up becoming meaningless against enemies that have an innate ability to pierce through their defense. Warriors are a hard-counter to the class for this reason, and any class that has some form of AntiArmor is best avoided; while it's not as devastating to a Hoplite as Magick, it'll still take off a huge chunk of their health if you're not careful.

* AchillesHeel: Magick. Spells in this game are [[ShieldsAreUseless unblockable by default]], and the M.Def growth of Hoplites is quite literally ''non-existant,'' with a resounding base stat of... ''1''. In fact, they're so vulnerable to Magick that if you manage to walk your unit into the range of overlapping enemy Magick Assists from enemy units led by Wizards and Witches, they can end up killed before the fight even properly begins!

* PaintedOnPants: Their pants is skintight, and they show off their butt in their attacking, running (or flying) and dodging animations.
