If YRP were to all wear the Warrior DS their stats would be the same if they are all on the same level. Similarly they would have the same stats if they were to all wear Black Mage. The only DSs that have different stats are Trainer, Mascot and Special.

Regarding the PR/Marriage subquest you will need to talk to everyone once per chapter, so it does involves revisiting each place again when you change chapter.
Thanks! So I guess I have no choice but to load the file before ending chapter1.. BTW is it possible if I'm already in chapter2 to just visit them again twice rather than repeating chap.1?

Hmm.. so regarding dress spehere seems like I don't need planning as what I did in FFX's sphere grid. If they all have the same stats then I just have to decide who I want to be a mage or attacker etc.
