Idol is one of the many role-playing subclasses in Elder Tale.
Overview[]
When F.O.E designed this subclass for the Yamato server, it was meant to be introduced in a collaboration with a real-world idol group. However, during development, the group underwent a scandal and so the collaboration was ditched last-minute, forcing them to push out a half-baked subclass.
As a result, very few People of the Earth are found with the Idol subclass since it would be hard to explain the hows and whys of their existence; the ones who do have it are said to have hailed from, or been to, a foreign land.
Even among Adventurers, who can make some more use out of the subclass, the subclass is not very popular. Because a rather significant portion of its content was cut out, the subclass mostly just gives sparkles and hearts as a visual effect.[1]
The subclass-changing quest involved using singing and dancing emotes on specific stands all over Yamato to earn points. When the points went past a certain level, the stand was considered done. To get the subclass, you had to get at least 10 of the 100 stands, which gives you the title “Fledgling Idol ”, with the title becoming more and more prestigious with the number of stands cleared. The last title, “Galaxy/Intergalactic Idol ”, was obtained by clearing all 100 of stands.
The subclass change quest was a rather easy one but completing the quest at 100% was insanely more difficult, especially since some stands were set in dungeons, in areas full of hostile monsters and even one in the middle of a raid zone.[2]
