Hi, I would like to know with stats bonuses is better for each of the characters so I can equip the best espers for each of the characters.
thank you.

The best way to figure that out is to open up Satistics from the Main Menu, look what each character is best at, and exploit that stat. From my experience, Final Fantasy follows the economic principle of comparative advantage - you should always allocate your resources so that each character can do what they're best at, rather then trying to have well-rounded characters.
One exception in this game is Setzer. From what I remember from my last playthrough, there is no one stat that he particularly excels with, so I made him my red mage - gave him a variety of magic, and raised ATK, MAG, STA, and speed. It kind of works out too with his long silver hair.
So yeah, characters like Mash, Cyan, and Edgar you should max out their strength or stamina, and characters like Relm, Stragos, and Terra you should max out their Magic. Looking at the stats of jobs from I, III, and V also help.
Mash?
Mash is the "proper" translation for Sabin.
Don't bother with Stamina, as far as I'm concerned, and wait until you reach higher levels to begin using HP +% and MP+%, that's about all I got.
i just finished the advance version of this game. i had...
+ magic for terra, celes, relm, strago
+ speed for shadow and locke
+ HP for sabin
+ strength for cyan
+ stamina for edgar
didn't really pay attention to anyone else. i didn't use setzer at all other than darill's tomb.
also i tried to make the characters fit into their respective jobs more. locke had thief relics, shadow had masters scroll since he's a ninja. sabin has genji glove as monk. cyan held his sword with both hands... forget what relic that is. edgar used spears and had dragoon boots... etc. it was fun
vigor and speed for every 'fighter' type.
MagPwr and stuff for the caster ones.

I am still unclear as to what a smart-ass is though. :confused:
A smart-ass is when the buttock area of a mammal develops higher mental functions, usually achieved by a rudimentary growth within either buttcheek similar to the cerebral cortex found in the human brain. It's a well known fact that Sir Isaac Newton was actually a smart-ass owned by Gregory Penniweather, who posed for all of Newton's portraits.
Also in terms of stats, Str should never go about 128 due to calculation purposes, Magic can stay at about 120~ if you have Gem Box/Economiser combo with Ultima, Stamina is next to useless and Speed is probably the most important stat since it allows you to do more of everything.
Sadly only one esper gives the speed bonus, and then only one point at a time, and THEN only untill you upgrade it to another esper.
What's up with that?
They fixed this bug in the GBA version. Attributes are capped at 128. I have Sabin with 128 Strength and his total strength is over 140 with equipment and he deals massive damage whenever he attacks now. :)Quote:

I also usually match up magicite with which ever party member I think represents that magicite the most. So odin is all Cyan, as he gets my loves.
PS Gau is my new favorite character. SEX!
