Etrian Mystery Dungeon: English Runemaster Video, Upcoming Japanese Nico Stream with Atlus and Spike Chunsoft

This week Atlus USA released a video for Etrian Mystery Dungeon’s Runemaster class, the analogue to a traditional mage: squishy defenses, elemental attacks, and all. Atlus’s description, following the company’s custom of using quirky descriptions for the game’s classes can be seen below:

Is there anything better than roasting your enemies by hurling giant balls of fire at them? Or calling down a deadly maelstrom to zap your enemies into oblivion? Maybe you’re the type who likes to impale enemies on deadly lances made of ice? Yep, that’s probably the right one. Lances made of ice. Ice lances.

Well then Etrian Mystery Dungeon’s Runemaster has your name written all over it! This staff-wielding master of elements is a walking force of nature, throwing out direct damage elemental attacks or summoning powerful AoE spells, the Runemaster is a potent damage dealer. Just remember to bring a Protector along, because a Runemaster won’t last long if an enemy is whaling on it.

In other news, Atlus of Japan and Spike Chunsoft employees are planning to stream Etrian Mystery Dungeon in Japanese through Nico Nico on Saturday from 4:00 PM to 5:00PM Japan Standard Time. It’s the closer of a larger stage event that day, following after Chain Chronicle event.

If you are interested in watching the stream for this event, you’ll need to sign up for a Nico Nico account. Registration instructions are available in English by visiting the nicovideo homepage, however the streams will still be conducted in Japanese without English language support.

Continue reading to check out the video for the Runemaster! Like last week’s Protector video, Atlus notes that those who share the video for the Runemaster have a chance to obtain swag from the Etrian Mystery Box, so be sure to share the video on Facebook on Twitter if you want to participate. The video also features the hashtag #EMDmysterybox, so you may want to make use of the hashtag also if entering.
