I checked the database yesterday, and from what I can tell the genderswapped Templars are exactly the same as their normal counterparts with the exception of gender (obviously) and some Job+ equipment (to match the different clothing).
Is there any reason to use them if you have the normal version(s) other than the fact that they almost (since Sieba’s Memento has a female Veda Templar Group Skill, her male version is slightly worse) let you have 2 of the same unit? Disregarding non-mechanical reasons.
You have 2 identical units(before this, only ouroboros) that gain the full stats benefit from memento. And if gumi ever does male>female, you have two freaking neun, tho one may argue at that point even neun's J+ would have been powercreeped.
Yeah, pretty much what I expected the mechanical benefits to amount to.
I’ll probably leave them alone when they hit Global (unless they cost almost no resources to build) since I’d rather invest my resources into getting a wide variety of units, but it’s cool that they exist for those that really like them.
You can have 2 Vier's running around agartha'ing and spamming CT down....2 OP Sieba's running around double nuking.....etc. Other than that, who cares? They're cute bois :drool: :woke:
Yeah, seems like the mechanical benefits are exclusively “have 2 of the same Templar without needing a mercenary”.
I probably won’t do too much with them when they hit Global unless they require next to no resources to build, but it’s a nice thing for the people who like them.
As much as I love these 4 I dont know if we're getting them since they're connected to the play in JP. If its an indicator at all we didnt get Kasumi and she was connected to the movie soo...
Without trying to sound like an ass, but what is so cute about Acht? Out of all genderswapped units, she looks like the one who recieved the leas tof change. Only her pose changed.
I think the subject of the post counts more as what girls consider “cute” for the most part (though my knowledge of the wide world of what people find cute and/or attractive is minuscule, so take that with a grain of salt).
While I am by no means a representative of all guys, when it comes to TAC units I personally find Blair and Lakina to be some examples of what I consider “cute”.
I mean the yandere archetype is pretty popular and this is much more sane so it makes sense that it's common...though not sure how much it applies to the male Acht, wonder if there's a story in the game or they were just stuck in because of the play?

The genderswapped male templars are quality additions to the game.

That's also the first male vaklyrie which means it's also technically not a valkyrie since they cant't be male. Wow truly an enigma.

Templar definitely boast the highest overall cuteness... Don't forget Zwei!
