Best Personality for Each Job Class

In Dragon Quest 3 Remake, a character’s personality plays a key role in shaping how they grow and develop. Not only do personalities help make characters feel more unique, but they also affect stat growth. Each job class has its own stat progression, and different personalities can further modify how those stats develop over time. In this guide, we will discuss the best personality for each job class in Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake.

Hero: The Hero is designed to focus on physical attacks, using spells only when absolutely necessary. To make the most of this role, you’ll want a personality like Paragon or Amazon for a boost in strength, but if you prefer more vitality, Tough Cookie or Ironclad would be a better fit. While the Hero’s gender can be either male or female, a female Hero might lean toward traits like Vamp or Amazon. Ultimately, though, the Hero is meant to reflect your own preferences, so feel free to stick with the personality you start with or choose the one that suits you best.

Martial Artist: The Martial Artist is another physical damage dealer, but the focus here is on agility rather than strength. The ideal personalities for boosting agility without sacrificing Strength are Bat Out of Hell or Vamp. If you prefer a more defensive approach, Tough Cookie could be an option, but keep in mind it comes with a -10% penalty to agility.

Warrior: Like the Hero, the Warrior should focus on dealing physical damage while also being able to take hits as a tank. For the best results, choose the Paragon or Amazon personality to increase strength, or go for Tough Cookie or Ironclad if you prefer more vitality.

Merchant: The Merchant is primarily used for farming, so increasing vitality to increase their HP and keep them alive is key. For this, the Tough Cookie or Ironclad personality would be ideal. However, if you prefer extra strength, you can opt for Paragon or Amazon instead.

Gadabout: Gadabout’s main strength is luck, so it’s best to choose a personality that enhances this stat. Personalities like Happy, Lazy, or Carefree are great for increasing luck, while you could also consider a vitality-based personality if you want to improve their survivability. For a female Gadabout, Vamp or Ladylike are good options, while male Gadabouts can benefit from the Lucky Devil personality. Jester is a pretty weak character overall, so their personality isn’t as important.

Priest: Priests need a high MP pool for their spells and enough agility to act before enemies, especially when it comes to healing or reviving party members. The best personality for this is Genius, as it increases both MP and agility. However, if Genius isn’t available, any of the other options listed can still work to support these needs.

Mage: Mages, like Priests, rely on intelligence and agility as their primary stats. Even though they don’t heal, they provide crucial buffs, like Oomph, which they’ll want to cast quickly. If possible, choose Genius to boost both intelligence and agility, but if that’s not an option, any of the other listed personalities will still work.

Sage: Sages, like Priests and Mages, rely on intelligence and agility to cast spells effectively and act quickly in combat. The best personality for this is Genius, as it increases both stats. However, if that’s not available, you can also choose from the other options listed above.

Thief: For the Thief, agility is key to ensuring they act first in combat, but if you prefer to increase their damage output, you can focus on strength instead. To enhance agility, choose personalities like Bat Out of Hell or Vamp, while Paragon or Amazon will help increase strength for more damage.

The best overall personality is Vamp, especially for female characters, as it boosts every stat without any penalties. However, it’s exclusive to females. For male characters, the only personalities that don’t come with stat decreases are Lucky Devil, Bat Out of Hell, and Everyman, though they’re generally not as strong. Of these, Bat Out of Hell is the best choice. For male characters, it’s often better to pick a personality that aligns with their vocation, since Everyman offers no stat boosts, and Lucky Devil mainly increases luck. Even though we have mentioned the best personalities for each class, players can choose any personality that suits their playstyle for their class.
