No Red Mage? :(
Printable View
I used Cloud, Cid and RedXIII. I picked the last two because they each had a Limit that attacked more than once.
And no Monk, strangely enough since Monk is my favorite class! But I think the 4 core and more traditional classes are Warrior, B.Mage, W.Mage and Thief but when there's some open space for a Monk I put him there of course...
I don't like Red Mages though and I avoid them if I can... I don't like multiclasses or hybrid-classes, jacks-of-all-trades... I prefer extremely specialized classes... Warriors and Mages shall be really distinguishable to me! XD
Cloud, Red XIII and Tifa. ( sometimes I replace Red with Cid ).;)
Cloud
Aerith -> Tifa or Vincent
Tifa or Vincent
Sometimes: Yuffie and/or Nanaki
Cloud/Yuffie/Aerith. Cid takes Aerith's place for discs two and three. I like maximizing damage with my limit breaks.
Cloud/Tifa/Yuffie or Cloud/Tifa/Cid.
I use Cloud and Red XIII as Red Mages, and give Tifa a limited amount of magic, such as cure and haste. Otherwise, she's my damage dealer, and I tend to make sure she has Fury, so I can build up her limit meter quickly.
Cloud, Barret & Cid.
Three best ultimate limit breaks. :)
Cloud, Cid, and Yuffie. The have good limits and leveling up materia from what I could tell. Tifa, Barret, and Cait Sith felt too random to play. Vincent I got the second time and I don't like his Umaro attitude.
My alternative would be hellhound 13. What a lucky devil he is.
Favorites overall: Cloud, Vincent, Yuffie/Red XIII (there's no choice, they must share that spot)
In-game usage according to acquisition (not going to repeatedly mention the default character Cloud):
Barret and Tifa
Tifa and Aeris
Tifa and Red XIII
Red XIII and Yuffie
Red XIII and Vincent
Tifa and Cid for the rest of the game
Favorite weapon sets:
Cloud, Cid, Vincent
Favorite styles:
Vincent, Cid, Red XIII
Favorite for abilities:
Cloud, Cid, Tifa (duh)
I always used Cloud, Yuffie because of her morph powers and long range attacks, and either Cid or Vincent for the other. I never use Cait Sith or Barret if I have other options available.
Cloud, Tifa and Cid.
On every single save of mine from every game that I have replayed, the rest are so crappy levelled up, only enough not to die when I need to use them.
