They’re just like any other class except their last accessory slot lets you equip up to 2 skill sets from other Soda Dungeon characters.

Skills must be earned by having your shifter fight in a party with the class you’re wanting your shifters to “learn”. After X amount of battles, you’ll unlock the first ability for that class. Another X amount of battles later you unlock the second. And so on.

Once you have at least one ability unlocked, you can equip it on your shifter and benefit from that skill.

Shifters are primarily used in end game as a knight filler because knights only have 1 acc slots but are mandatory for avoiding surprise attacks (and for always selecting the correct bonus door). By sticking a knight and another class on a shifter, you’re freeing up a character slot that allows you to have 2 accessories. For example: If you’re hurting on dps, you can stick a thief and knight on a shifter and add another DM. Now you have more damage but you haven’t lost out on the bonuses from your thief or knight.

It’s generally advised not to use them for attacking as you most likely haven’t pumped their relic up. They’ll do substantially less damage than, let’s say, a DM with a pumped relic.
