//Notes for analysis:

Each Adept his his or her own mono elemental class (some are shared by two Adepts).

There are three Dual elemental classes for each Adept (one with each separate element).

Dual elemental classes containing Symbiotic elemental Djinn are full class series in the Adepts of the respective Symbiotic elements (Mars / Venus) (Jupiter / Mercury) that have one extra class level.

Dual elemental partial classes are broken into dual elemental classes that share the same elemental Djinn as the respective Adept, as well as one non-symbiotic element (Djinn for those class are 6 non-symbiotic / 6 non-symbiotic and one Djinn of the Adept's mono elemental class).

Tri elemental Full class series always share the Djinn of Adept in question's symbiotic element paired with one non-symbiotic. Two tri- class series' are with the symbiotic and the opposing element of the Adept (Mecury / Mars), (Jupiter / Venus) one with majoirty of the symbiotic element, the other with more of the opposing element.

Tri elemental partial classes contain Djinn of the two non-symbiotic element, using 6 / 3 of either element, and give the only the first stage of the class in the series

If someone can help me put this into some kind of neat table or something that would be great, because right now its is rather unattractive.

"In terms of attack and defense, weapons and armor are added to the base after the multiplier. So the attack stat is (Base Attack * Multiplier) + Equipped Weapon Bonus. " I'm pretty sure that's wrong; when I equip the Mirrored Shield on Isaac in GS1 while he's just a Squire, his defense increases by 39 like you'd expect. But when I equip it on him while he's a Lord, his defense increases by 51. The Gaia Blade also adds a lot more than 135 attack points to Isaac as a Lord than Isaac as a Squire, so the multiplier has to apply to the weapon bonus as well.

 * Yeah, I noticed that too after I had already plugged the info in. Thanks for fixing it. Tanooki1432 16:08, June 13, 2010 (UTC)

A Note on Item Dependant Classes
Though my experience with item dependent classes, i have found that in order to use all three and reach the highest class tier for every character, two of the items must be given to adepts of the same element. Every successful setup I have used has followed this pattern. Just thought this might prove to useful for someone trying to make use of these classes. Tzion 18:56, 5 December 2010 (CST)
