Not happy with the roles your characters fall into after you first make them? Good news, then, because the skill system in Galaxy of Pen & Paper is flexible enough for you to change them as you play.Įach character can have four skills split between active and passive skills. And no worries: without spoiling the plot, you will have a chance to increase the size of your party later on.īonus tip: Look for special side quests that unlock new character classes as you progress in the game, but you might want to hold off on tackling them until your characters are at least level 10. Since you have just a party of two to start the game, a good way to go is to create one front line combatant (Bounty Hunter or Trooper) and one support character (Engineer or Gadgeteer). Trooper: Heavy guns to force enemies into submission.Gadgeteer: Hacks into mechs, lifeforms, the game ….Engineer: Supports the party and blows stuff up.Bounty Hunter: Trips enemies up with speed and traps.Still, the idea is to have all three choices work together to create the most effective finished product. Different classes have vastly different skills, making this choice the most important. What is your character best at? Their class selection will seal the deal. Simian: Starts with +3 in Power and Body but +1 in Mind and Senses, has slight chance to damage adjacent targets upon a successful attack.Green: Starts with +1 in Power and Body but +3 in Mind and Senses, has a chance to not spend SP when skills are cast.Human: Starts with +2 in every stat, begins with 3 points to buy new skills and can equip an extra gadget.Sci-fi isn’t just for humans! Your choice of species, while limited, impacts your starting stats and introduces another passive ability. Romantic: +2 Body, increases chances of positive travel events.Thinker: +2 Mind, doesn’t end turn on strategic movements.Storyteller: +2 Senses, gains more XP for finishing quests.Socializer: +1 Body, +1 Mind, receives huge discount on weapons and armor upgrades.Slayer: +2 Power, recovers some HP each time he finishes off an enemy.Showoff: +1 Mind, +1 Senses, may counter enemy attacks.Buddy: +1 Power, +1Body, slight chance he will join other characters’ attacks.Achiever: +1 Power, +1 Senses, achieves bonuses for each achieved achievement.The choice here comes down to stat bonuses and a unique passive skill. Your role-player is the real life (well, in-game “real life,” if that makes any sense) person playing the Galaxy of Pen & Paper character. Happily, you have choices, as you can pick your characters’ role-player, species and class. That can make things a bit hairy early on if you don’t pick two to complement each other.
