Roles

Roles are a special gameplay element in SaGa Frontier 2.

A "Role" can be assigned to any one character at a time (with the exception of "Solo Action") and it affects various stats or abilities in battle. Roles are unlocked at various points in the story, as well as when new characters join your party. You can assign Roles from the "Battle Style" sub-option from the options screen.

Roles can be Passive (Scout), Aggressive (Blitz, Diversion), Support (Defence, Support) or Diplomatic (Intimidate, Pre-emptive), and can be used to drastically alter battles in your favour depending on location and current enemies.
