    aside from the obvious, zidane (cause the game would be difficult with him in KO the whole time....hrm... do i smell a challenge?)

    i would say vivi actually. his black magic is usually useful against any enemy...makes steiner even more versatile, and refl. X2 + auto refl. = burnt baddies

    I found all my characters to be useful

    Vaan - "Hey, you!"
    Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
    Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
    Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
    Fran - "....We could help...."
    Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
    Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
    Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

    Quina. Quina can kill almost everything in the game with one hit until about the end of disc 2. The all s/he needs are two hits and not to be attacked inbetween. You don't get much better than that.

    However, that's only if you're playing a speed or lv. 1 game. Overall, I find Vivi most useful. He can, from the very beginning of the game, attack every enemy at once, and he's pretty consistently powerful. He makes Steiner become more powerful, and when you couple him early on with Garnet and she casts reflect on him, he's even more powerful. And he's so cute

    That's tough. Freya, Zidane, Quina, and Steiner all have 9,999 damage moves (if you put the time and effort into getting them/powering them up). I'd have to go with Quina, though, because of the vast versatility he/she offers other than Frog Drop.

    I have a secret for you did you know if you have someone to cast reflect on the hole party and then have Vivi cast a magic attack on the whole party the magic will hit the enemy four times in a row. So you know who I choose all the mages first Vivi, then Quina, and then Garnet, we're still missing a red and green mage though oh and also a purple.

    Vivi... yeah... Vivi was my most useful character in FF9. Except that one time my brother decided we needed to test out his ultimate attack....
    Pray, Heal, Influence with Giant Hammer.... This is how white mages get their work done. You all didn't think those red triangles on my robe are there for good looks did you?

    Dagger.

    Healing magic, Chemist to use items, good Eidolons, useful Trance (yep, IMO Eidolon is useful, kill me o_O) and with the right equipment, even a decent physical attacker. Robes have great defense, and she is a girl, thus, she can equip some good equip that boys can't.

    I wouldn't have minded having to play the Water Shrine battle with just Dagger and Eiko; with those two in your party you're frickin' invincible; they're like Red Mages who can't equip any decent weapons. I love them!

    I think Vivi sucks. You spend the whole game making him learn spells, of which about two are useful at the end, and even if you get Firaga, Dagger can summon Ifrit for slightly less MP, with no damage penalty for splitting it across all enemies, plus she can heal.

    And his ultimate attack is a joke.
