    Default Wake me up before you Gogo

    I'd like to think this thread is justifiable for the title alone.

    Although Gogo isn't a terribly popular character to use for the rather dodgy stats, I always use them for the dungeons when your party splits into two/three (the GBA extra dungeon, Phoenix Cave and Kefka's Tower) because I find the flexibility to be really useful. What skills do you set Gogo up with when you use him though?

    I like to have another Tools user and another Blitz user is always handy. Which leaves one slot that I'll usually just leave as magic. Though sometimes I'll put Blue Magic in there. What about you? Or do you simply never use Gogo? In which case, shame on you.
    Not my words Carol, the words of Top Gear magazine.

    He's perfect for rounding out a party in the later half of the game. Savings from having to level 4 characters with Ultima. As long as someone in the party has it, he will too.

    I like giving him Magic and Tools.

    People who pass over characters like Gogo because of stats are missing out on good times. FFVI is an easy enough game without meticulous min-maxing, anyway.

    Tools and Blitz are my favorite unique commands in the game, so I usually give him at least one of those. And there's no going wrong with Magic, of course.

    Wow, as Versatile as Gogo is, everyone seems to use him the same way.

    It all depends on what party I use him in and what is needed most at the time. Sometimes I'll put him in with my uber party of Sabin, Edgar and Cyan... so Gogo will become the healer/supporter. This typically means he gets magic, runic, and Lore. Lore has some awesome support spells, Runic can help absorb some magic, and well, magic is magic.

    Of course, if he's not in that party, he almost always has either tools or blitz, or Swd Tech if the equips fit it. And ALWAYS Magic.

    Gogo, is awesome. First off, his name can very easily be switched into GoBo, clearly linking him with awesomeness.

    Second off, he can Mimic Terra Casting 4 Ultimas (unless I'm remembering false crap)

    Yes.

    I believe I used Gogo to unleash plenty of whoopass in the form of Ultima and Bum Rush. He was a fun character. I'm surprised people would pass him up, but I've never been much of a stat whore so I probably didn't even notice he had any weaknesses.

    I always used him to have a second thief in Kefka's tower. so, Magic, Tool, Steal. Sometimes Blitz or Item instead of one of those.

    There's two scary things with this post. One, I do that too. Two, I forgot all about it!

    Magic is the number 1 ability I give to Gogo. But for the other two, I usually switch depending on my mood

    I have such a horrible time with Locke and his Steal command 92% of the time, that I find myself using Gogo as my second thief.

    I also abuse magic a lot in this game, so I give him the Magic command

    I saw the thread title and had to post.

    But in reply to the topic... I also use Gogo for Tools. And SwordTech, too. Not so much with Blitz though.
