Overview

The "Useless Person" is Netherworld Covenant's equivalent of a Deprived or Wretch class from Souls games. You start with nothing—no class bonuses, no starting equipment advantages, just raw potential and enhanced stamina recovery.

What makes this class unique is its universal weapon proficiency. Unlike other classes locked to certain weapon types, Useless Person can use ALL weapons effectively. Combined with superior stamina regeneration, this creates unlimited build possibilities for skilled players.

Unique Traits

All Weapons Viable

No weapon restrictions. Master any playstyle—switch from Bow to Greatsword mid-run based on what relics you find.

Enhanced Stamina

Faster stamina regeneration than any other class. More dodges, more attacks, more aggressive play potential.

No Starting Bonuses

Zero starting stats, no class abilities. The first few rooms are brutal— survive on pure skill alone.

Adaptive Growth

Build identity forms during the run. Adapt your build to whatever relics and auras the game offers.

Combat Tips

Abuse Stamina Regen

Your stamina recovers faster. Use this to dodge more and stay aggressive longer than enemies expect.

Stay Flexible

Don't force a build. If the game gives you crit relics, go daggers. Spell relics? Go staff.

Early Game Caution

Your first few rooms are the hardest. Play extremely safe until you find your first weapon upgrade.

Master All Weapons

Practice with every weapon type. You never know what the RNG will offer in a run.

Prioritize Defensive Relics Early

You can't deal damage if you're dead. Early survivability enables late-game scaling.

Know When to Commit

By room 10, your build should have direction. Don't keep hedging—commit to a strategy.

Best Soul Companions

Guardian

Recommended

For early game survival. Guardian keeps you alive through the brutal opening where you have no defensive stats.

Rogue

For experienced players. Rogue's mobility complements your stamina advantage and aggressive playstyle.
