Ramza does seems stronger than generics at most jobs. Like Ramza as a monk does more damage than a generic monk of the same level. Ramza also seems to have higher success rates on things like Break Techniques and Stealing. I don't know if this is because of his Zodiac sign on my game or what, but it almost always is true.

In a 1 on 1 fight to the death, a mastered Holy Swordsman Orlandu with his Excalibur would beat any configuration of Ramza that I can think of. Ramza wouldn't go first, and Orlandu would begin the fight by breaking Ramza's equipment and then when Ramza did do damage to Orlandu, he'd just use Night Sword to make up for it. Ramza would dead in no time.
