Q4 – Changed class… What happens to my emblems?

Nothing! Nothing happens to the emblems you’ve already spent, they’re still on your normal hero (refer to Q1 about the toggling)

• To be very clear about Emblems and costumes!
  • A hero can ONLY get emblems from its original class.
    • E.g. Normal Joon = monk, Costume Joon = Fighter. Can still only give nodes using MONK emblems, regardless of if it is costumed or not.
  • Emblem effects ONLY kick in for the costume once the costume is maxed also!
    • A +20 normal cleric Rigard will have +20 on his costume WHEN the costume also hits 4-70
  • Emblem Path is inherited from the original Hero!
    • So using +20 Rigard again, if you went L,R,L,L,L,R,L on normal Rigard, the costume emblem pathway will also be L,R,L,L,L,R,L…
    • The path will be the same but the benefits at each node will change cause it’s a different class

Another thread has been started asking if you will reset/ change emblem paths because of the new Costumes. Link Here

Q4b – Why do the costumes change Class at all???

Best I can tell there are a two main reasons:

1. Access to a different Class bonus talents.
   • Changing from a Monk to a Fighter changes the talent from Withstand to Revive.
   • This new talent may better suit the new costume play styles…
   • Could also be viewed from a perspective of gaining access to a BETTER class/talent by spending the emblems of a WEAKER class (e.g. upgrading from Wizard to Rogue)
2. Additional Versatility
   • Primarily this is in relation to Class Trials! The new costumes will be usable in the costumes new class trials!!!
   • Means you get extra versatility from the same hero, being able to compete in more trials… So for example with Costume Rigard & Costume Boldtusk, the Ranger & Monk class now have a healer available.
