I went with the Esper, as I really don't need the sword that much and it's a lot more convenient than the Paladin Shield.

I took the Esper. Getting the Paladin Shield is too much work.

Esper. It's a lot more satisfying for 100% completion to see a shiny new Esper on the board as well as the magic: Ultima.
it's funny how people say the Esper gives 100% completion when in fact it adds nothing to the game you can't get otherwise.
THE JACKEL
Esper.
sword
hitting the tyrano forest to grind for magic points/exp/items/256 fights for the pally shield. it really doesnt take that long, ive done it a few times on the snes.
i get the shield for the stats and resistances, i dont use ultima anyways
What other way can you get the Ragnarok summon?Quote:

I took the Weapon.
but what is the purpose of the esper... to teach you Ultima. And you can get Ultima otherwise. The esper itself, is nothing special. For the most part summons are not significant in this game. There are a few good ones, but Ragnarok is not one of them.Quote:

Sure, but there's no other way to get the summon than with the magicite, whether it's good or not.Quote:

ahhh the eternal question
You can steal the sword from one of the Goddess statues in Kefka's Tower. Isn't all this common knowledge by now?
