As most people know, characters only gain stat bonuses in FF6 (besides HP and MP) by equipping Espers. Besides that, the only way to increase them is through stat increasing items. So that makes me wonder, does this mean that Gogo and Umaro can’t actually increase their stats past their original values, as they cannot equip Espers? This is especially important for Umaru, who can’t change his equipment either; does this mean that there will be a point in the game when all of the characters outclass him?

Discuss…hopefully with answers.

EDIT: Bah, mispelled Umaro....
