Highlander (Class)

The Highlander is an offensive class originally introduced in Etrian Odyssey Untold available only in its Story Mode as a main character. Once again, the Highlander has been reintroduced in Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold as a complete class for DLC which was available for free until August 10, 2015. The class comes with two characters and a palette change for both of them available as use in EO2U's Classic Mode, although it is possible to reclass a Story Mode character into a Highlander.

Force Boost - Hero Battle: For 3 turns, provides a 50% damage bonus to spears, and whenever the Highlander deals spear damage to enemies, the entire party is healed for 25% of the total.
Force Break - Gae Bolg (uses arms, STR-based): Consumes entire party's HP for a powerful ranged stab attack to all enemies. Despite the description, this attack does not have an element at all, not even Almighty. As such, it is able to hurt Ur-Devil while he has his Ur-Eyes up.

Highlanders remain largely unchanged since The Millennium Girl, only picking up the Force skills during the transition. They have also answered the call to Maginia in Etrian Odyssey Nexus, with only a slight rearrangement of their skill set.

Strengths: Powerful source of area-hitting stab damage, excellent strength and agility growth while being more durable than a Ronin.
Weaknesses: Constant HP consumption for skills reduces stamina without a healing source, poor Luck impairs ability to inflict ailments.
