Dragon Quest 3 Remake’s storyfocuses on the Protagonistas they go on their quest to slay the archdemon, with other party members joining them fairly early on. While these party members will have the occasional dialogue, the main focus is on the protagonist.
While the protagonist is initially leading your party, it is possible to switch him in that order to have another character lead should you want. This goes hand-in-hand with the line-up, which does play a large part in combat. Here’s how to change your line-up and what that does in combat.
What Does Line-Up Do In Dragon Quest 3 Remake
The Line-Up menu can be found by opening the main menu and going to Misc with line-up being the fourth item from the top. Here you have the freedom to change your party to whatever order you want, though there are some jobs that work better in certain positions. Your line-up determines theprobability of a party member getting targeted in battle, with the one of the far left being the most likely, and the far right being the least likely.
While there is no wrong way to handle the line-up of your party, the only effect is who gets targeted more often, asturn order is determined by the agility of each party member. When buying better armor or equipping accessories, it’s best to prioritize the person on the far left as they will get hit the most. The last slot in the party is alsoideal for a healersince they will usually have low defenses but also need to stay up to revive any downed party members.
The two most important things to look at when deciding line-up are defense and max HP, which isdetermined by their personality.
How To Change Party Leaders In Dragon Quest 3 Remake
Your party leader will be the character you control outside of combat, leading your other three party members. This is determined by whoever is in the far left slot of your line-up, meaning any party member can be your leader. Outside of the order your party members walk in, there are no other changes with switching your party leader, so it’s best to focus on the gameplay effects and have yourtankiest character leading the party.
