    Default I do not like Quina

    For someone who likes to eat, s/he sure hates cooking.

    I liked 2 of its lines, for the rest I've never used it, useless to the end.

    I don't like blue mages, hence why I don't like VIII much since they are all blue mages.

    The eating/cooking thing just takes too long and tends to screw me over. It just takes too much time and it's not worth it until you spend lots of time and it's later in the game. So I just level others up and ignore quina.

    Are you sure you played VIII? D:

    You have to gather magic and put it in places making you a blue mage

    Well, you don't really use the magic, you merely use it to become some kind of uber-soldier.

    Aw, don't bag on the poor Qu. D:

    Okay, so s/he doesn't contribute.. much.. to the story. But to forgive him/her, I actually rather enjoy having Quina in my party. Odds 'n ends characters are the most fun to play with!

    I would have enjoyed Quina a lot more if I: a) knew which enemies to eat; and b) could figure out why s/he seemed to hit for random damage. It was really annoying to come out with an abysmal attack at an important moment.

    Quina's attacks are sort of like the axe and hammer in XII and lots of other similar attack styles I can't think of but I'm sure exist: Their attack is way higher than the rest of your party (generally speaking), but it's also random so the effect varies. If at one point Zidane hits for 400 damage most of the time, Quina might hit anywhere between 0 and 800. That's the basic gist of it.

    I really love axes in XII but I hated Quina's physical attack. It never once hit for more than I expected it to in my entire playthrough!

    I don't like using blue mages, I also hate how it hits for random damage, and it's just...strange. And unintellagble.

    I enjoyed using him when I had no other options such as Burmecia, Clerya and so on. But once everyone is available he never really got much more of a chance with me. Dont mind he/she as a character though

    If I was like Cloud I don't think I would have taken that test.

    I've always wondered if you could play through the whole game w/o getting Quina since I've always gone to the Qu marsh first thing for an extra character to help instead of skipping it to find out.

    Quina's only optional on the first disc; Fossil Roo can't be found without 'er though.
