    NES - Fi/Th/WM/RM Guessing here since I never played the NES version.
    Thief for running which you will do alot of.
    Fighter - duh
    WM - Life and such
    RM - Fire2 and such without the weak defense of black mage early on.

    Origins - Fi/Fi/RM/WM
    Thief loses run ability... bye bye thief.
    erm see above...
    May replace RM with BM if i wanna level a bit.

    Origins Easy - Fi/BB/WM/BM
    Fi - duh.. maybe put a second black belt in.. but will be rough early on.
    BB - 99absorb, ultimate evasion, unresistable Death tied to his attack at lvl 50+
    WM - Infinite Magic charges... infinite Holy/Life2/Harm spells
    BM - Infinite magic charges... Infinite NUKE/Flare

    DoS - Fi/Th/Th/Rm
    Fi - Duh...
    Th - still can't run.. but now I am a king of Fighting and outdamage fighter!
    RM - shot of Fir2 and shot of life... grab Judgement staff for Flare, and Rune Staff for Healing.

    *shrugs* critique....

    NES - All are usable.. no disadvantages or nerfs...
    Origins normal - Thief running ability mega nerfed.
    Origins Easy - Mages inifinite charges and Black Belt higher cap of absorb/evasion/damage.
    DoS - Thief turned into a damage machine, BlackBelt mega MEGA nerfed. 99 black belt on DoS = about a level 40 black belt on NES... thats sad. Evasion levels slower... Absorb cut in half... Damage cut in half or 1/3

    When I say infinite.. well.. are you really going to use 27 charges of Fire2?

    Post which version you are posting for as well.. as above mentioned changes can greatly affect opinion/usability...
    ie.. Black Belt is just plain is lousy in Dawn of Souls.. and I'm pro-BB.

    Doesn't matter what version it is, I almost always use:
    Fighter
    Black Belt
    White Mage
    Black Mage

    Sometimes I use two warriors, and occasionally I use a thief or red mage.
    No.

    Yes well level 50 is the cap on NES, and you need not go higher than like 25 on NES. I just like BB cause he's the cheapest in any version

    But akin to that...

    A lvl 38 Black Belt on Dawn of souls would be equal to not a 38 black belt on NES, but a 19 Black belt.. looking far inferior to Fighter and the others.

    DoS ... 40 Kn/Ma/WW/BW
    equals roughly a NES 40 Kn/20 Ma/40 WW/40 BW

    I still like my self proclaimed "ultimate offense" party: Master, Black Wizard x3. Low on defense perhaps, but dead enemies deal no damage. I'd be an idiot to claim it's the best party. It has tons of shortfalls, namely expense and survivability. Still, I like the blitzkreig strategy gameplay it promotes. Works even better in DoS where you can get ethers to restore mp and magic points aren't divided into tiers.

    Fighter, Black Belt, White Mage, Black Mage. No contest.

    I'm quite sure they toned down all the characters a bit with each level. If not then that's extremely stupid because then you get a max level Master equal in both games, as it should be, but max level other classes twice that of the NES game, that's just retarded.

    I think in FF1 DoS Fighter got nerfed some, he's noticably weaker offensively than Thief and Black Belt. In prior incarnations, he rivalled Black Belt and surpassed Thief. Red Mage also got nerfed when Int became a factor in spell potency. Either that Black and White mages got a buff - take it as you will, there's now a large discrepency in potency. Thief got buffed so much he's almost a new character entirely. I can't say I mind having a character with a hit count that rivals a monk and damage that surpasses the warrior. In my Warrior, Thief, Monk, White Mage party, my Monk was always top DD.

    Another one I quite like is Warrior, Warrior, White Mage, Black Mage. All the magic, and twice the Fighter power.

    Default Fastest clock time?

    Fighter, Black Belt, Black Belt, Red Mage

    Kill your BB's right away, leave them dead till the Marsh Cave. Kill your FI too as soon as possible. RM levels up 4 times faster than normal, and level him way up. Add the FI back when strong enough to go to peninsula-with-the-extra-strong-monsters.
    With a high level FI and RM, the BB's will level up very quickly, and act as fodder to protect RM in the Marsh Cave, so what if they die. But before long, they're equal to the FI, and then better, and behind him their weaker defense doesn't matter. Try it.

    DoS:

    Warrior - Ocin
    Red Mage - Nano
    Black Mage - Mowse
    White Mage - Miki

    In any other version of the game, I use the same party. I list it as DoS since that is the only version I have beaten. Man, I stink at FF. :rolleyes2
