Set Party or Use Them All?

[Mirage]

I don't use all characters just for the sake of using all characters.

If they have set classes or abilities, i make sure to keep useful characters leveled in case i need them for something in particular. I also pick characters based on how much I like them, visually or personality wise.

I try to use everyone, but I always have trouble leaving my favorites behind...

This. I like to use them all because you never know when you have to use them! But I prefer to use a core group most of the time.

I chose my party based on where Im going and who will give me the most relevant dialogue when I get there.
