When is the right time to start mastering professions

All unique professions in Yakuza: Like a Dragon

Freelancer

Basics, Kasuga's standard profession. He has it from the very beginning. The developers managed to transfer it from the old version of the game to the new one. It allows him to enhance his attack and stun enemies. 

Unfortunately, this class does not have a choice of additional upgraded skills. 

Hero

Another character's profession. It unlocks after reaching Chapter 4. It gives the hero all the abilities and skills that the developers designed for him. 

The character becomes less vulnerable to attacks. The standard set of skills is usually sufficient, but if you want more, you can develop other skills for him. 

Homeless

A unique profession that is very valuable in the game. Namba's main advantage is that he possesses the element of fire. He has the ability to weaken enemy forces and heal HP for his allies. This character is an excellent ally in battle, capable of both attacking and defending. 

The downside of the character is that his attack is somewhat weak. However, all the drawbacks can easily be compensated for by other members of the game. 

Detective

This is Adachi's profession. The essence of it is that he evokes emotions in his opponents, causing them to attack him with the least effective attacks. He is a kind of tank in the game world: powerful in attack, has a large durability, and neutralizes enemies. 

But Adachi has aprofession that is several levels more powerful than Detective. Its name is Bodyguard. Bodyguard and Detective work well together, indicating that you can combine the strengths of both professions. 

Hitman

This is Jun-Gi Han's standard profession. What is the essence of the skill? The enemy is dealt a large number of quick attacks with significant damage. The higher the character's level, the more interesting he becomes for leveling up. For example, he can fight with two or three enemies at once. 

There is a downside: the hitman is weak in defense, which is his Achilles' heel. It is definitely worth leveling up this skill as it complements any other character's abilities well. 

Gangster

This profession belongs to Zhao. Thanks to it, he can fight with both fists and a sword. Martial arts flow in his blood. The more skills are unlocked for the gangster, the more powerful damage he deals. 

Unfortunately, apart from attack, he doesn't know anything else. He needs heroes who can heal and protect him. 

Bartender

This profession is assigned to Saeko. The bartender can attack a single target excellently, but she is not capable of supporting or restoring HP. Switch the character to idol mode and enjoy the gameplay. 

The hero is practically useless in prolonged battles, so initially, the hero is good but loses effectiveness over time. 

Clerk

This profession belongs exclusively to Eri. When you unlock this character, she becomes an excellent support player. The character's attack is very strong, and she also has the ability to weaken enemies. When attacking, the hero can hit multiple targets at once.
