Pick a role before spending stat points
Roles in DQ Reborn are defined by stat allocation, not class lock. Pick Warrior (Strength), Mage (Intelligence), Tank (Strength + mitigation), or Healer (Magic + Strength) at the start. Respecs cost 200,000 gold without the Free Skill Reset pass; pick one to start.
Claim Daily Rewards first

Desert Temple Easy → Medium → Hard
First dungeon. Whirlwind and Battle Shout drop on Easy; Slam on Medium; Arcane Spray and Innervate on Hard. Use Easy to learn rotations, Medium to test loadouts, Hard once you have Inner Rage or Inner Focus equipped.
Avoid the reroll trap
Players chase early Legendary drops and burn their reroll budget on Common/Uncommon weapons. Earnaldo's 2026 tier list places Common → Legendary in a clear value gradient; respect it. Wait for Hard or Insane to drop before re-rolling.
When to enable Hardcore mode
Hardcore mode = one life. If the entire party wipes, no loot. Use Tool 5 (Hardcore EV Calculator) to compare your expected return vs Normal before toggling. The +1 item bonus only applies if you survive.
