Thread: Do you like to use Selphie in your party?

  1. #1

    Default Do you like to use Selphie in your party?

    I don't becuase I never use her so shes extremly weak on my game.

    No, I don't like her either, in fact I found all the females extremely weak and so never bothered using them. I don't know if maybe that is one of the reasons I don't like the game because I didn't play it to the full.

    It doesn't really matter to me, because with the Junction-System you can make her as strong as you want and her Limit-Break is pretty useful

    No I dont think I ever used her fully throughout any time I played through the game. I normally used Squall, Rinoa and Quistis or Squall, Rinoa and Zell.

    I found Selphie good as the support and cure magic person, but I found Rinoa better in that role. My party was usually Squall, Zell Rinoa, although by the end of the game everyone was at level 100.

    That said, the only people I had anything junctioned to in the final battle were Squall, Zell and Rinoa. I didn't even have to use Selphie. I actually let Quistis and Irvine die, hehe, so I could get to the junctioned people.

    I don't really like the amount of time her limit takes to get anything good. But I think she's in my party right now. (Usually it's Squall, Rinoa and Irvine) 'cause I just got done levelling her to 100.

    (how on earth can you say the females are weak fighters? You *can* control stats you know.)

    The female characters are weak because of their desperations attacks. After all, desperation attacks are the only things in this game that make the characters different. Squall's, Zell's, and Irvine's desperation attacks all hit multiple times, making it very easy for them to do massive damage. The same can't be said for Selphie's or Quistis's attacks, and Rinoa's multiple-hit attack is rare and unpredictable.

    There's also the fact that, of the three female characters, two are completely undeveloped beyond "naughty teacher" and "I like trains!", and the third one is a useless whore.

    My static party was Squall, Rinoa & Selphie
    Maybe I'm lucky but I got "The End" a lot (it still makes me chuckle ^^)
    Even if you can control statts (which I love about this game) there still are some differences between the characters, so usually I end up using Squall for fighting Rinoa for curing and Selphie for casting
    And imho there limits are far from useless, they saved me a number of times, the first time playing through I did the end boss fight with squall at lvl 47 being my highest and the rest being about 40, with pure luck Rinoa's limit got me through^^
    And while at level 100 it gets a lot easier, their limits are still very useful imho

    Yeah. My party is Squall, Quistis, and Selphie. Squall is the main fighter, Quistis is the support fighter, and Selphie is the mage. It actually was an okay party.

    I generally used a party of Squall, Zell and Irvine, as has been said earlier in the thread, they have limit breaks that hit multiple times.

    I've never been fond of Selphie, probably the character I've used least in FFVIII, as generally I used Quistis or Rinoa if I wanted a female. I have seen The End though, when a friend used a cheat disc to make it a magic anyone could use and have 99 of.

    I use Selphie every once in a while. Her Full-Cure comes up quite often, and it's always very helpful. Not to mention that she does have some pretty awesome spells in her Slots. Rapture is like a Degenerator on all enemies, and it comes up fairly regularly. Once I got Meteor x 27, and BGH251F2 went down like a rock in a pond. Not to mention that he has a decent strength stat, and her weapons have pretty good Hit%.
