I’m not doing a name pun for Ochette
Ochette is the Hunter ofOctopath Traveler 2. This is one of the most substantially overhauled classes in the game, as Ochette has many perks that H’aanit lacked inOctopath Traveler. The biggest change is that Ochette can use her captured beasts without any limits this time around. However, once you take a look at Ochette’s skills, you’ll see many captivating differences there as well. Definitely give this Beastling a chance!
As a primarily physical attacker, Ochette can equipBowsandAxes. That said, this only scratches the surface of her capabilities. Check out what she can do below!
Ochette’s Path Actions and Talents
Both of Ochette’s Path Actions stem from her TalentCapture/Prepare. Like a Pokemon trainer, Ochette can Capture weakened enemies to later summon during battle. This allows Ochette to cover numerous damage types on her own, though she unfortunately can’t always control who a beast will target when summoned. Ochette can also Prepare enemies to turn them into items, which we’ll get to in a second.
Ochette’s daytime Path Action isProvoke. This will trigger a one-on-one battle with Ochette, except captured beasts must exclusively be used to fight the opponent. Afterwards, the NPC will be knocked out until you leave or change the day/night cycle. Use this to gain access to areas that would otherwise be blocked off.
At night, Ochette can utilize theBefriendPath Action. This lets Ochette use those items she prepared from beasts to give to NPCs in town, allowing you to recruit them as if you were usingTemenos’ Guide Path Action. Use this to further round out Ochette’s elemental coverage!
