Overall picture of the first 8 heroes and points for joining them
The original 8 heroes are Therion (thief), Tresa (merchant), Primrose (dancer), Olberic (swordsman), Afen (medicine), Silas (scholar), Ophelia (priest), and Heit (hunter), who were the main characters in the previous Octopath Traveler. In Octora 0, these characters join through exclusive quests and learn unique ultimate abilities. Gokui is a system that strengthens abilities and maximizes their effects while suppressing SP consumption. This allows the first generation hero to demonstrate performance that surpasses other characters.
The common point of joining is that a special side quest will occur after clearing a specific main story chapter. The main story has routes such as “The One Who Masters Everything,'' “The One Who Bestows Fame,'' and “The One Who Bestows Wealth.'' The addition of each hero is linked to these progress levels. If you ignore the recommended level and challenge it, you will have a hard time, so please proceed with leveling up at the same time. Also, some joining quests include battles. It is important to solidify your basic party. When you have all heroes, BP circulation and recovery infinite loop will be realized. You can create a 1-turn kill formation.
Joining priority and recommended early/late stage formations
The recruitment priority for the first 8 heroes will be set to give top priority to recovery, firepower, and BP supply. Below is the recommended ranking.
- Ophelia (The strongest healer. Stability increases by reviving the entire body and breaking the recovery limit)
- Olberik (The strongest physical attacker. Breaks the damage limit and instantly kills a single boss)
- Tresa (BP passer and the key to money planning. Provides an infinite supply of leaves and BP)
- Affen (BP supply + recovery. Perfect loop with Tresa)
- Therion (specializes in theft. Enhances economy with equipment recovery and BP steal)
- Hiit (Multi-stage shield scraping and interference. Specialized for small fish and medium bosses)
- Primrose (Dark attribute support. Increases durability through evasion and extension of reinforcement)
- Cyrus (specializes in attribute magic. Useful for bosses with many weaknesses)
Recommended early stage formation (after joining Tresa Therion)
Vanguard: Protagonist (attacker), Hiit (shield sharpener), Tresa (BP support)
Rear guard: Therion (steal/dagger support), Ophelia (recovery), Primrose (buff)
With this composition, you can easily clear chapters 1 and 2. Tresa's “BP Passer” will boost everyone to MAX. By reviving Ophelia, we will achieve zero annihilation.
Strongest formation in the final stage (after all additions)
Vanguard: Olberik (main firepower), Hiit (obstruction), Tresa (support), Primrose (dark attack)
Rear guard: Ophelia (heal), Affen (BP supply), Therion (steal), Cyrus (attribute break)
Circulate BP with Affen and Tresa. Inflict 99999 damage with Olberic's combined sword. Instantly perform weak point analysis with Cyrus. The hit delay prevents enemy action. This formation allows you to conquer the final boss in one turn with no damage.
How to join Therion and explanation of its strongest performance
Therion is a versatile thief who specializes in stealing. Indispensable for collecting equipment and collecting BP in the early stages. The condition for joining is after clearing Chapter 2 of “The Master of Everything”. The steps are as follows.
- Move to Cragspear.
- Talk to the merchant who sells necklaces in Cragspear Square.
- Select the “Buy” command and obtain the “Thief Prince's Necklace”.
- The quest “Encounter with Therion” will automatically occur.
- If you complete the quest and win the battle, Therion will join you.
Therion's job is a thief and his weapon is a dagger. The main abilities are “Steal More” (increases the number of items obtained by more than 3 times) and “BP Steel Dagger” (attack + steals 1-2 BP from the enemy). If you master this, SP consumption will be halved. You can collect BP throughout the battle. Recommended support abilities are “The Secret of Stealing” (success rate is 100%) and “Item Drop Rate UP”. The best equipment is the “Shadow Dagger” (+20% success rate) that can be stolen with Crag Spear.
As an example of operation, place Therion in the rear guard during boss battles. BP steal keeps the entire party boosted. In the small fry battle, you can obtain a large amount of rare materials by “stealing more”. Improve financial efficiency by more than 5 times. Excellent synergy with Tresa. If you combine this with Tresa's money collection, you can earn more than 100,000 leaves in one battle. Its weak point has low durability, so use it in conjunction with Ophelia's barrier. With this ability, Therion becomes an essential support role even though it is a B rank.
How to join Tresa and all-purpose support performance
Tresa is an expert in collection and BP support. Lay the foundation of your economy and combat resources. You can join relatively early and from the east side of Rippletide. The detailed steps are as follows.
- Talk to the merchant Orneo on the east side of Rippletide.
- The quest “Encounter with Tresa” will occur.
- Proceed with quests and clear designated battles and conversation events.
- Recommended level is 20-24, but you can try it even at chapter 1.
Job is merchant, weapon is spear. The strongest abilities are “Collect Money” (receives a large amount of leaves when winning a battle), “BP Passer” (sends 2 BP to one ally), “Person Rest” (recovers a small amount of SP for all allies and removes abnormal conditions), “Big Wind” (decreases the speed of all enemies), “Stands on” (increases durability when boosting), and “Strengthens Critical Rate”. Gokui “BP Passer'' can be activated in SP3. It is the keystone of an infinite loop. Recommended supports are “The Secret of Criticality” and “Increased Leaf Acquisition”. The equipment is “Spear of Wind” (Firepower + Speed UP).
In battle, the BP passer will be fired repeatedly in the rear guard position. Accelerates the break of forward attackers. If you team up with Therion as a money strategy route, you can save 500,000 leaves in 1 hour. The reason for the S rank rating is this versatility. Immediately improves the completion level of the early party. When combined with Primrose's enhancement, the damage will explode with a 100% critical hit rate.
Attack/support hybrid of Primrose and Olberik
Primrose is a general support and dark attribute attacker. Olberic is a physical monster. Since the conditions for joining are from the middle stage onwards, we recommend parallel progress.

Supply and magic specialization of Affen and Silas

Advanced operational tips for fully utilizing the original 8 heroes
As a tip after joining all members, please release Gokui on priority. JP is collected by stealing terion. All equipment will be unified with the “Ring of Secret” (effect duration +1). Boss battle example: In the final chapter boss, Silas analysis → Hiit delay → Olberic sword → annihilation. As for money strategy, you can earn 100 million leaf per week by collecting Tresa money + stealing Therion. Leveling up is risk-free with Primrose avoidance PT.
