    My favorite tool is Flash. I think that it would have been more useful in the original version if the Darkness status actually did something besides prevent Strago from learning Lores by visual aid.

    Does anyone like the Air Anchor? What does that do, again? I used it like once or twice before going back to the Chainsaw.

    If Air Anchor succeeds, it instantly kills the target after they make a move action.

    Basically the heat status in FF IX.

    Favorite is Auto Crossboy. Followed by Drill, then Noiseblaster, Flash, Debilitator, Chainsaw, Air Anchor, then Bioblaster.

    Does the Air Anchor inflict damage if it fails to inflict that status on its opponent?

    No, but it won't miss if the target is vulnerable to ID attacks.
    That's also why I like the Air Anchor and prefer it over other ID attacks.

    My fav Tool is Noiseblaster and my least favorite is Chainsaw (yes, I said it :O), it looks cool, but I dislike it's ID chance and so prefer to use Drill.

    I didn't use the Debilitator on a regular playthrough, but I used it pretty often in my Low Level Natural Magic game...

    I thought it did like, a few points of damage?

    Yeah but only if it hits (afaik), and since it will miss if the ID status cannot be applied (which was Roogle's question) it doesn't do any damage. At least it was like that in the PSX and SNES version.

    Autocrossbow is my favorite tool in the game, it is useful pretty much throughout the entire game. I liked Noiseblaster the least, I just didn't use it that much.
    Old enough to know better, but dumb enough to do it anways.

    I'm going to side with Flying Mullet on this one. The tools I used the most were the drill and the auto-crossbow. Drill is just so brilliantly consistent that it's easily the one I used the most. Also, gotta love that hard hat. Edgar's taking no risks.

    My favorite is definitely the Drill. I use that so much.

    I forget my least favorite.

    He is such a tool.
