Unicorn Overlord | Comprehensive Class Overview | Promoted Classes Part 1 

A detail Tom missed about Breaker. Their row smash is Uncoverable. That Legionnaire wants to sacrifice himself because he’s knows he’s going down anyway to save someone else? Nope! Row smash scares him so much he can’t jump in front of another ally

I have been waiting for this ❤ thanks Tom!

The only way I found sword masters to be consistently useful is to use it as evasion/parry tank and give it the wind sword to be your primary anti-flying.

Well organized, edited and informative. Ill say it again: this channel has the best UO coverage by a long shot. I started following for Tactics Ogre content and now Im a huge fan of the channel.

I love how you used DEOXYRIBOSE as BGM.

Love these videos thank you for making them

YOU ARE AWESOME! ❤❤❤ THIS GAME IS SO GOOD AND I LOVE YOUR COVERAGE!!! HELP THE DEVELOPERS FEEL MOTIVATED TO MAKE A SEQUAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANKS FOR THE REVIEWS!!

Love the Insight! Would be awesome to see some recommended base tactics (no accessories). Wouldn't even spend time on them - just show off the skills on the tactics screen for a quick reference. Like I love bastards cross >= 75% hp

I think you are not understanding Swordmaster value. -Second highest evasion in the game, right behind Rogue. -Auto-parry if they do get hit, which works against true strike attacks. -Solid damage against non-heavy armored opponents. So you have a frontline evasion tank that is more consistent than Rogues, without their weaknesses. Ironically they also hard counter Rogues and will 1-shot them. If you give them a Phantom Sword or Magic Sword then you can use magic attacks against heavy armored opponents when that situation arises. Personally I run the following team, which I highly recommend as it is one of my best: Milesandre Aramis Gilbert Nina Galadmir At the start of the match, Gilbert does Rapid Order, and then Attack Order, buffing all damage by 20%. Galadmir then gives Magic Conferral to Nina. Nina uses Hawk's Eye and usually wipes the front or gets it very low. Then Milesandre and Aramis both go, and they either clean up what is left of the tanks while getting Gambler's Coin buff from Gilbert, or they 1-shot whatever is in the back row. The opponent usually gets 1 attack, which is parried for an additional AP, and then we clean up. If the attack fails, Milesandre and Aramis are pretty much unkillable in a single turn, so you get a second chance. This team even worked before I upgraded it to 5 members and added Nina, because Milesandre and Aramis get so many 100% crit rate true strike attacks thanks to parry that they can beat even Hoplights down with the Magic Conferral buff. I try to find value in every unit in this game. The only unit that really feels terrible to me is Vanguard. You say you like it, but you don't really defend it. Yes, they can stop...1 ranged attack at a time. The ranged attacks that scare me the most hit rows or the whole group, though. If they had a Row Cover like Hoplights I could respect them, but when my Vanguard is only going to protect 1/3 of my back line from a Gryphon Rider I would rather take the Hoplight, since he will protect all 3 and take so little damage he might as well have the Vanguard negation going for him. The Vanguard really adds nothing to the team and is just a crappy Hoplight, which is an already mediocre class. If his Provoke was global like Elgor, I could see at least that being useful, but it's not. His sole justification for existence is the Provoke map skill to lure archers out from their towers. Edit: Oh yeah, Meteor Strike kind of sucks. I never use it.

Let’s goooooooooo

I love using Seargent's keen call with vikings or anyone with good AOE damage

Love the videos and effort for this niche genre. Loving this game. Wish the game was more dark though

I have a Team set up that enables Berengaria with alot of dots and other ailments and my Frontline is a Swordmaster with a flame sword and she just hits everything that has no ailments and Berengaria just follows up without end. And my Swordmaster has high evade and even if they get hit they parry and get a new action to put a new dot on an enemy aswell. That team is so funny and tanky aswell

Having so many classes to form a single unit formation is a pain in the ass for me 😅 will you please make a detailed guide on team building fundamentals and guides

I mean...the 2nd sword slot DOES let swordmasters punch through tankier targets. You can benefit from both physical and magical sword stats simultaneously, and set your tactics to hit armors with the magic attack. A magic sword crit has this satisfying "splat" noise 😂 Personally, i only really use meteor slash for galerius shield. Keen edge is just more reliable. Breaker's Heavy Counter requires the Breaker to be the attack target, so not nearly as good as Following Slash. It basically requires some sort of tank Breaker, which feels really awkward.

Maxim can only wish he was Pepe

Funny how sword masters looked so good in theory initially

Small correction, Fortress also protects you from mines and traps. It can be an alternative if your Breakers are not nearby.

A little thing I would like to clarify with Landsknecht Bastard Cross. It doesn’t scale with how much hp they have, but that if the foe is at full HP is gonna be a 260% potency attack , potency based on the users attack value. And sadly being 2 hits, each one will be calculated against the enemy armor separately.

Landschnecht is literally on every unit in my team. They're too good man. Swordmasters are also up there but using Meteor Slash is useless. They need to use their True Strike attack. The base damage of Meteor Strike isn't even worth two AP.

THIS IS WHAT A BOSS KILLER LOOKS LIKE: **shoves a Landsknecht to the front** I'm slightly confused by its association with the Sellsword, though. Sure, they're also a mercenary, but if they wanted historical accuracy, a Landsknecht would be holding a spear/halbred. Maybe it's not a strict rule and there are landsknechts who mained swords, but that is what the Landsknecht has been heavily associated with. (I guess it would be a weird promotion for a soldier)

What about Alcina and Elgor? Not much on internet about them

Yo, now that the patched has buffed swordmasters so that their second sword actually gives a 50% of it's Phys Atk as well, how does that change your opinion on the class? It's easily a +7 increase as early as drankehold, and by endgame, that's +12-13 (depending on whether it's rounded up or down)

I dont think sword master is meant to be a dps class. Its an evasion tank with higher psychical dps then its cousin the rogue. Parry contradicts evasion, but its very powerful if the SM doesn't dodge.

Pepe has more drip

Tier list anywhere?

I honestly didn't use Vanguard at all in my expert run. I dunno I just couldn't figure out a way to make it work well for my comps

The major issue with vanguards: They are pretty bad tanks if they don't use provoke. All start-of-battle skills are limited. Do I want to make a vanguard capable of fulfilling their role as a frontliner, or do I want to use a stronger start-of-battle skill and run a different frontliner that doesn't need that start-of-battle slot to be viable? Considering how great most start-of-battle skills are (you are seriously underselling rapid order), I find this to be a very easy decision.

Still incorrect on the sword masters second sword. The game will calculate the highest stats regardless of which sword slot is holding what. So if your second sword has higher physical attack the game will count that one. If your second sword has higher magic attack. Then you will see a boost to magic ect. And all stat boosts, and special attacks are obviously counted. So you should be holding one high physical attack sword, and one high magic attack sword.

24:09 modern society 🤷‍♂️

The level of pushback on swordmasters is honestly kinda bizarre. I used the fuck out of them in my first playthrough, but it doesn’t take a lot of examining to see that they just aren’t very powerful.

The footage on Swordmaster says it all... All misses or 1 damage.
