Your best team?

[Atma Weapon]

Terra with Offering + Genji glove: She has awesome base stats, equips the minerva and heavy armor and weapons, and has the ever awesome morph.

Damage per round: 80,000

Celes with Gem Box + Economizer: Can equip minerva and heavy armor, Runic completly shuts down magic using monsters.

Damage per round: 50,000
Total for party per round so far: 130,000

Cyan with Genji Glove + Economizer: If you cast quick than there is no harm in waiting for his sword techs to charge. Combine that with a four hit tech and quick for a total of eight hits and you get a whopping 80,000 damage without use of the offering.

Damage per round: 80,000
Total for party so far: 210,000

Gogo with Running shoes +Genji Glove: Have him mimic Cyan by using the running shoes to make sure that Gogo is ready when Cyan is. Tacks on another 80,000.

Damage per round: 80,000
Grand Total for Party per round: 290,000 HP

This group has the potential to easily do about 290,000 damage per round. Considering the fact that the absolute max HP that anything could ever have is 65,535, I think that 290,000 is a bit more than you could ever need, but hey overkill is fun.

Mine was:
Terra- main magic user, perhaps strongest fighter as well (minerva and aegis shield helped too)
Locke- got some items, used the wing edge weapons in back row as a nice addtional fighter
Edgar- Tools and secondary magic user, another powerhouse for me
Setzer- genji glove and offering = doom darts and fixed dice = kefka dead in around 5 min

it was so simple to beat kefka with this party..I didn't spend time getting the best armor and stats so they were kinda weak except Terra who kept everyone alive with Life3 and all her magic

Everyone in that party knew most of the cures, the elementals to at least lvl 2 and of course rasp and osmose. I used them to beat everyone even all the statues (kept exiting and restarting of course )

The rest were alright, just there to get through the tower and to say they did it together (started together and ended together...yay)

perhaps it might have helped with the economizer but i just never thought about getting all the side quests so yeah...(i don't ever remember what level i was when i beat the game )

My brother introduced me to the idea of this group; while it's not necessarily the best group possible, it's my favorite for use in the game.

Umaro (w/Rage Ring - does his own thing without any need for human interference)
Mog (Set him to dance, and he's off on his own for the rest of the battle)
Gau (Start up your favorite rage, and he's set to go too)
GoGo (He can dance or rage as well)


There are obvious problems such as with not being able to heal the party, use life spells, etc...but all in all I've found this group to be highly enjoyable. Especially if defeating a difficult boss with them. Just sit back and say, "Yep, those are my BOYS!" Also, most of Mog's dances and many of Gau's rages will do things that heal the party anyhow.

Perfect for a lazy bastard, like me.

My favorite team is Locke, Sabin, Mog, and Terra or Celes. I like to steal and use blitzes. Mog's dances are kinda random, but they're often very useful. I like Terra and Celes cause I need atleast one good magic user in the group. Runic is okay, but it kinda screws me more over then helping. My fun team is Setzer, Edgar, Mog, and Shadow. For the most part, in the world of ruin I like to use my fun team as soon as I get them. Gau is pretty useful, but I only use him on the Veldt. I hate strago, but I like to put him as the leader to see him run around town...
