>What are the best classes per character?
Angela: L/L or bust
Duran: anything but D/D
Kevin: same as above because of the crit bug
Riesz: L/D or D/D
Hawk: D/L
Charlotte: L/L if you're going for the Kevin/Charlotte path, L/D otherwise

>Thoughts on Sin of Mana?
It's a really good overhaul. The reworked gear, classes and levelling pace are great. The reworked boss fights, not so much.
Prepare for intensive alt+tab'ing though, the documents in the archive bear tons of crucial info.

I don't own a switch so I can't comment on Collection of Mana.

Did't Sin fix the crit bug too?
By D/D for Kevin I assume Death Hand, since there seems to have been some mixup over whether that or Dervish is/was meant to be D/D

Does it still run like ass on the SNES Mini?

Because magic is shit, the best class for every character is dark/dark because that has the highest attack stat. The only exceptions are if you want certain spells:
>Riesz's buffs
>Charlotte's light sabers and better healing
>Angela's multi-target spells
>Hawkeye's Silver Dart or Aura Wave
and that's about it, if you don't need those go Dark/Dark or Dark/Light

Yes it does, I've just forgotten to mention bugfixes.

I'm not sure of the class' name anymore, but I'm talking of the one with the crit buff which is useless unless you play a patched version or the remake. But OG Kevin is the king of unga bunga no matter which class you pick for him anyway.

I don't own a snes mini either so I can't really comment. Apparently, some emulators can barely run that game but it plays flawlessly on some others like bsnes.

Bosses are fun on tough difficulty,maybe hard if playing coop because you won't have to deal with allies suiciding into the boss and getting 1 shot by a crit

>Bosses are fun on tough difficulty
Not all of them.

The final classes come way too late to care about their minor differences. You spend about 2/6 of the game as the first class and the next 3/6 the game as the second class. When you finally get the last classes, you still need to level higher to unlock your new skills one by one. Hawkeye in particular won't even learn all of his abilities before you beat the last boss unless you grind for them.

They should've structured it or someone should've patched it so you play 1/6, 2/6, 3/6 of the game as each class tier. Class changing would be at the first mana stone, and then again at around Oblivisle. Just let the player pick what class they want, no seed bullshit.

knew you'd post that nigger lol,isabella was a bitch in my case

Sin of mana does that,first class change is on the wind tunnel,second class change is either after getting salamando or undine

Sin of Mana does exactly that. You get your first class change when your reach the wind mana stone and there's a vendor in Dinn who sells class change items in case you haven't found the ones you're looking for. ??? seeds are easier to find as well.

Why would >>6492042 suggest anything but D/D for Duran?

>>6492245
Dark Saber is useless

thoughts on Secret of Mana Turbo?

Seiken Densetsu 3 with the translation patch and some bugfix patches runs fine on my SNES mini. Haven't tried any drastic rom hacks of it on there yet though.
