    Default Which classes did you choose for your party in the original Final Fantasy?

    Fighter, Red Mage, Black Mage and White Mage Master Race. Or are you cooler than that and only used white mages?

    As I've described elsewhere, back in the day I would roll with 4 Fighters. Nowadays I usually play the Dawn of Souls version, which means you can be a lot more free with your classes and still dominate. I'm an old school Fighter, Black Belt, White Mage, Black Mage kind of guy. I was working on a Red/Red/White/Black run, but never finished it.

    That's my favorite set-up too.

    I originally beat FF with Fighter, Thief, Black Mage, White Mage. I did a Fighter, Red Mage, Black Mage, White Mage run but I feel most comfortable with Fighter, Monk, Black, White.

    The first party I ever beat it with was Monk (Black Belt) x4. And that's a party I go back to from time to time, as well. By far my favorite as it provides both challenge and limitless potential.

    Man, I'm stretching my mind here, and I am not 100% sure on this, but I believe it was Fighter, Monk, White Mage, Black Mage. I played this game when it was brand new, but saw a friend and a cousin play the game at length before I had my own copy, so it is very hard for me to remember accurately.

    I am officially the first person who always brings a Thief. Besides White Mages, they have the best chance to run of anyone, and hello, they become Ninjas

    One white mage. I had the other three killed at the start.

    The ultimate challenge.

    More proof that a thief is useless and stupid.

    My first was Fighter, Thief, Black Mage, and White Mage, but in any playthroughs I do nowadays I never use a Thief or Black Mage.

    Only true starting in Dawn of Souls and subsiquent remakes. In NES and FF:Origins it has zero effect.

    First playthrough was Fighter-Theif-Black Mage-White Mage. Upon discovering that Black Mages and Theives largely suck I eventually settled on:
    Fighter-Fighter-Red Mage-White Mage. I'm not familiar enough with the DoS mechanics to have a favourite party there.

    In the older versions I tend to use a mixture of Fighters and Red Mages, but in the newer versions I go for something more balanced, like Warrior/Monk/White Mage/Black Mage.
