What exactly is Cloud's role in FFT?

[RedCydranth]

Cecil would be a standard Lancer and Terra would be like a Knight with sub Black Magic.

I think Cloud was a decent character. Another cool character from the regular FF series (7 or before) would be Strago, the Blue Mage. His entire Blue Magic skill would be based off of Enemy Skills and you CAN'T learn from friendly monsters.

NAyhow, I hardly think FF7 needed the publicity from Tactics, it was more like the other way around. All the FF7 fanboys would learn that Cloud was a character and buy Tactics on that premise. But, most people buy games for better reason than :Hey, Cloud is in it!"... But that's Ehrgeiz's whole speil so... I dunno.

[Navydav]

I don't know. All I do now I got him up there pretty high and he started making comments about his head and just left. Does that mean you can't keep him once he gets to a certain level?

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

If a unit's Brave goes under 6 or his Faith goes over 94, he will leave the party. Best to avoid that.

[Navydav]

Oh I see. So if they become too scared or too religious they leave the party?

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

That's the idea, yeah.

[Dignified Pauper]

No, Cecil would be a Knight with white magic... Kain would have been a lancer. Terra could be anything, since she could be in FFVI.

I like the addage about Cloud ending up in a different world due to the lifestream, and he does say he needs to find a way back to his world, perhaps beating Ajora sends him back to his world.

Thats pretty much what I said.

True about Cecil and Kain, my bad. But Terra is stuck usind swords in FF6. Meaning she is a knight. The only other class that can use the good swords (without Equip Sword) is Geomancer and I never saw Terra use any Geomancing in FF6. Her 'squire' class may be like:

Magic Knight

Abilities:
Cure
Cure 2
Fire
Fire 2
Fire 3
Esuna
Raise
Life Drain
Dispel Magic
Raise 2
Holy
Petrify
Demi
Flare
Ultima (Learnable like Ramza)
Morph

I based that off of her skillset from FF6. Those are the spells she learns without Esper assistance (Some are reworded to FFT spell names like Quartr = Demi and Life = Raise etc.)

Morph would double her speed, magic and attack for 1 turn and its would consume 1/2 her total MP.

That would be pretty cool, if she had good stats.

Okay, the character from an earlier FF that I would want in FFT, would be Mog. He'd be able to equip spears and he'd have a unique skillset of dances... like a Dancer's dances, but more powerful. I think that would be neat.

I think you get Cloud because, well, I dunno. It Is kewl gettinn cloud in ur party, even tho he starts out at Level 1, he raises lvs fast and is AWESOME when he is above the 70's. But to answer ur question, i dunno....

[Destination0]

There is only one role for cloud in FFT and i.e. to attract diehard FFVII fans

[RedCydranth]

thats an improper usage of i.e... But you are correct.

[zpforter]

i thought it was cool that you could get cloud in your party in FFT. his limit breaks took forever to learn and even longer to actually execute on the battle field. he was still a great addition to the game. they should have made him a more important character....or given him a sub plot to do.

[Hartigan]

he has no role, except being at lvl 1 when you get him at almost the end of the game >< thankfull you got nerds liek me that are willing to lvl him anyways

[Koryiaki]

*blinks* i loved ehrgeiz.....fun fighting game and dungeon mode was awesome *misses it*. But yah, cloud is there for looks if not to add another type of charecter. As for the terrra issue, just give her ALL magic (the skill the ''sorceror'' class has [id explain that but dont feel like doin a spoiler]) as well as all the knight abilities, and morph would have to be longer than one round because after using morph, and moving, thats the one turn -_-. As for mog, yah, thatd be awesome, have dances that do elements, or element damage or wutever, and since it changes the scenery, have it change all pannels to a certain type or layout.....mog+geomancers = death. Oh any spoiler questions, how the hell do you get on those pillers? (i use beowulf and with move find item, there is no way up there[unless i ride chocobo but move find item doesnt seem to work on chocobo]) and i heard somewhere that lower brave = higher chance of finding item, is that true?
