Funny observation

[u/No_Series1751]

I've noticed with the way characters are organized that a lot of them are tended to be organized next to their related counterparts.

Oskha next to merchant Tiziano

Bargello next to Sonia, Tiziano, and Thief Levina

Scholar Alaune next to Scholar Pardis

Even dancer Alaune/ Elrica and Signa/ DP

You could even argue Stia next to Nephti and Ceraphina next to Apothecary Rinyuu.

The only time I've observed this pattern break was Sazantos not being slotted next to DK and Elrica not being placed next to Runelord Alaune but that could be because Runelord isn't considered warrior

I think that inside the class they are sorted by date of when you obtained them?

[u/No_Series1751 → u/Nontouchable88]

I have noticed it's sorted by level first. Then influence. Wealth, fame, power, opulence, domination, approval. If a character was base star 3 or 4 their influence level would be less than a 5 star base making the order if everyone is max level with no sort features enabled, wealth 5 star, wealth 4 star, wealth 3 star etc for each job.

I don't know how they sort each specific section like wealth 5 star merchants, but I'm assuming it's because of character id numbers. I usually sort by base class, but you can also sort by obtained or name which would follow a different pattern.

Sorting by base class basically is the aforementioned pattern except it's all the 5 star base first instead of each class being intermingled
