Thread: Do you even use Espers?

    I never really found them too useful, you can certainly do without. I mostly use them for fun.

    Used 'em once each upon acquisition. They're useless.

    I used them a few times, rarely against bosses, but I did occasionally, just to mess around. My party was better without the Esper, but I still liked to screw around with them.
    That's the way it goes, when you're down here with the rest of us.

    I used and fought them just for fun, I used them every once in a while. I always used them right after I got them just to see their specials and then I didn't use them for a while except Cuchulainn which was my useful esper. Other than him I didn't really use espers that much unless I was bored or in serious danger. Sometimes I used them during another esper fight just to see two espers fight.

    Earlier in the game I would kite a boss and let Belias throw everything he can, worked really well untill he started getting weak compared to my characters.

    Eternity is just an empty illusion and is why feelings of being able to believe in one another are born...

    i dont really use them, i dont really see it as nessesary like they were in say FF 10. You can get past the game pretty easily without them (besides the Gigas gate).
    All you need is some nice strong magic. Holy works wonders on most things!

    Same, especially when I overleveled =)

    Btw, has anyone ever read this FAQ from Gamefaqs on how Espers can be useful?

    GameFAQs: Final Fantasy XII (PS2) Esper Guide by aldoteng

    Seems interesting. I'm gonna try this on my second playthrough(or when I purchase FF XII International Zodiac Job System somethime this month)

    Vaan - "Hey, you!"
    Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
    Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
    Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
    Fran - "....We could help...."
    Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
    Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
    Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

    I hardly even need to open the battle menu, so I rarely get around to selecting Espers as it is.
    EOFF needs a resurgence to it's former glory.

    I used Belias to help on the Dragon in the Golmore Jungle. He took the Spore Fly move thing. It was helpful. He also managed to deal...maybe 17 damage?

    On rare occasions.

    Ex. overwhelmed enemy attack, sometimes marks and bosses, and in critical situations.

    But pretty much, i hardly had a dire need to use them except for once or twice really.
