I didn't like Eiko so much because I thought that her Double White was excessive, I didn't really find myself in such a condition where it might be needed.

Eiko's double magic is great. You can heal your party while causing damage to the enemies with Holy. Or if your team doesn't need healing, you can cast two Holy's to cause A TON of damage.
Still, I personally don't think Trances are that important compared to the rest of the character's abilities. I find Quina's trance to be most of the time useless but that doesn't stop him/her from being very useful in battle.
Well, I never picked up Holy, so it wasn't nearly as good for me. One heal was pretty much always sufficient.
If you're comparing trances between garnet and eiko tell me this. . .
What exactly is garnet's trance FOR?
It really seems like it's the exact same as the original command-_-
Garnet is the best one. She rules.
"No matter what happens... I will find you."
No, you're not. I thought Eiko was the best! Holy beats Flare or Doomsday anyday, her eidolons and white magic are far superior to Garnet's, her Trance was the only one in the game I found to be of any use, plus there is the random chance of Phoenix being summoned if your party is defeated.Originally Posted by Flamethrower
I also usually have a team of Zidane (bleh), Eiko, Freya and Amarant, so with White Draw and Chakra, Eiko never runs low of MP, allowing me to Holy and Madeen away to my heart's content.
I find Vivi the most useful..like some of you mentioned above,he may be weak physically but he has some pretty good abilities(Auto-Reflect) and very strong spells..
not to add that he and Steiner really do a great job together..
"People Always Lie" - House MD.
Vivi. Drain + Flare + Doomsday + Bio + OSMOSE!!! (yea, I think Osmose is 1 of the most usefull spells in the game.)
Everyone has Auto-Reflect, it's hardly a distinguishing factor. Anyway, if you're going to put Auto-Reflect to use with Reflectx2, that's 32 stones used, which is far too many and makes the result negligible, especially as the more powerful spells (Meteor, Doomsday, etc) cannot be reflected anyway.
I think Vivi is extremely overrated.
Steiner's Climhazzard and Shock, Freya's Dragon Breath, and Eiko's Holy all do just as much damage, if not more, than Vivi's top spells.
Vivi-Trance-Flarex2-Dammagex2= Extremely Powerful.
And once again... Osmose is a godly spell + the Steiner combo.
However... Quina is actually the absolutely most powerfull. Frogdrop, Mighty Guard, Limmit Globe, Wite Wind, Angels Snack, Bad Breath etc. All quinas spells can be very usefull. She/He also have more HP and stronger phsycical attacks than the others... but Vivi have Osmose, Drain and double Black... if you don't include the HP bonus and stuff... then I think they are pretty equall.
Shock= High MP cost. Steiner= Low max MP.

Vivi is best cause he gave the finishing blow "flare" to Ozma! Go Vivi!!!!
(BTW: did you notice that in X's Lulu is repeted just like IX's Vivi! are any other games like this in the FF series?)
"Everything has a purpose. It's your life's mission to find yours."
I can't decide which mage is IMO the most useful. All the four are useful /o/
Dagger: Good eidolons, a good Trance (I find it useful), she is pretty (/o/) and stuff XD
Vivi: Black magic simply rules, he rarely runs out of MP after you get Osmose, Focus boosts the damage, Double Black is useful too and he is kawaii XD
Eiko: She is MORE kawaii, have good eidolons (aside from Madeen... Madeen sucks), Full-Life really takes me out of sticky situations, Might is simply one of the most useful magic of the game (two or three of these and Climhazzard does 9999 damage. TO ALL ENEMIES. \o/) and Holy is strong and in FFIX has a BEAUTIFUL animation *-*
And Double White is mor euseful than Double Black (Curaga + Holy... Holy + Holy... + Might + Might... Protect + Shell... \o\)
Quina: He (I CAN'T see him as "she" or "it") is very fun, have a lot of useful magics, and he is essential for my trainning at Disc 3 (Level 5 Death.... Grand Dragons... *evil grin*). And he double my Gil with Millionaire XD
Only really useful if you could break the 9,999 damage barrier, but you can't, so it isn't.
I don't understand what you are trying to ask here.
In FFVI, there's Gogo and Mugumugu.
