    Default If the cast has established weapons...

    Final Fantasy XII is interesting as it's one of the few games in the series where the entire cast has access to all weaponry. Assuming you had to give the cast up to three weapon types they could use, what would they be?

    Here's my picks...

    Vaan - Swords, Bows, Staves
    Ashe - Maces, Swords, Rods
    Balthier - Guns, Daggers, Spears
    Fran - Spears, Bows, Axes & Hammers
    Basch - Axes & Hammers, Greatswords, Swords
    Penelo - Daggers, Poles, Crossbows

    Tough one. I'd agree largely with what you two have:

    Vaan - Swords, Daggers,
    Balthier - Guns, Spears, Poles
    Fran - Bows, Bare-handed, Axes & Hammers
    Basch - Greatswords, Swords, Axes & Hammers
    Ashe - Swords, Bombs, Maces
    Penelo - Staves, Rods, Bare-handed (she was taught martial arts by her brothers, the manual tells me)

    I see no one's assigning measures to anyone.

    No one's tempted by the Compass of DOOOM

    The worst weapon type I think I've ever seen in a game.

    No, but I mean, who's gonna be the interior decorator in your party? You honestly can't expect them to do any real remodelling without the right tools!

    I was thinking more the end of the game, but fair enough. I'm still confused as to why an interior designer is an important job role in the party.

    Well if we're in need of an interior designer, how about a fashion designer? Vaan is committing oh so many crimes of fashion. Balthier really raises the average up, to be honest.

    Basch with his pot holders and Vagrant Story-esque assless chaps.

    You started it! What with your talk of interior design. You're one to talk: Bowser appears to be wearing a very outmoded wallpaper!
