Whoever said paladins are pansies, just look at Beatrix.
Since when has Beatrix been a Paladin? I'm confused...

I wouldn't want to relegate Blue Magic to Limit Breaks ever... By that theory of thought we could make Flare/Holy/Arise/Meteor/Ultima/Bahamut/Odin/Leviathan/"Overpowered summon that shouldn't be in the game" all relgated to Limit Breaks and I don't think that would go over very well.

I'm for Strago who has a normal limit break and just does awesome damage as a broken blue mage.

As for Lancers being crap in FFT. WHAAAAAA?

Maybe its because I always have Mustadio or someone with Time Mage skills (or both) but Lancers kick ass. They are pain to build up but once you get there highest skills they are ungodly with the right party set up. I love Lancers in that they have excellent defense, great attack power, and range... I don't even find the extra effort is that hard as both Mustadio and Balthier are excellent party members. Not to mention Beowulf later on if you want more muscle.

Lancers are slightly inconvenient but hardly a poor and useless class. I find the TA version to be worse since Jump raely connects and most of the skills are depending on MA stat which Bangaa don't get much of. Even then, TA's version still has ungodly good stats.

The most broken Dragoons are still FFIII (Duel Weilding... Blood lance that works), FFIV (Kain's got great stats, excellent weapon selection), Freya (has an ability to restore MP including her own? Can't figure out how that got past the testers ). Hell I might even add VI in the loop. Even though Lances don't do double damgae with jump anymore, the Dragon Horn relic makes building a dragoon a very alluring choice, especially for the Battle arena.

Cid is also a decent dragoon (average stats though...) but Kimarhi definetly sucks. Especially since you literally have to choose between making him a good dragoon or a blue mage... Neither of which he's particularity good at.
