jump because it's a sure-fire hit and it deals the damage greatly

Jump. It saved my bacon more times than I can count against tough bosses with apocalyptic all-party attacks. While the others were receiving massive damage, Kain escaped unscathed, returning a turn later for some massive physical damage.
That being said, Twin was a close runner-up. I always liked Palom and Porom, and their powerful magics were a force to be reckoned with. -------------------- "I always have a quotation for everything - it saves original thinking." ~Dorothy L.

Bah, Jump no doubt. Its stronger than a physical, never misses, and doesn't take much time at all. Kain's a beast. You and all your dogs know its true. Dogs as in the pet, of course.

jump, because unlike the others, you need it to beat a boss

Heal, by far. You don't know how many times I've wanted to spread out the effects of a Potion throughout my entire party.

Jump is the only way to go. It really doesn't matter what game you play. If it has a jump attack that's the best.

I'm going to go with Guard. It was extremely useful in FFV. Jump comes in a close second.

"can't ya see me standin' here
I got my back against the record machine I ain't the worst that you've seen can't ya see what I mean? Ah, might as well jump. Jump!" Kick is a somewhat close 2nd, but unfortunately Van Halen never wrote a song named Kick. Kane's Thread Revival + Ejoty responding afterward = the evening of Sept. 14th, 2004.

I always found it extremely amusing to Jump during the Golbez + Shadow Dragon fight.
Thus, my vote goes for Jump as well. |

Jump is my favorite skill because it saved my live so many times during boss fights. Kain would usually be the only one left, he'd jump, and then hit the boss and kill him. Most major boss fights usually went that way. A second would be the throw skill Edge has. You no longer have to trash or sell those useless weapons cause now you can throw them for lots and lots of damage (cleaver!).

I agree with you FGL, Think Jump was the best non-magic comand. For the time that I had Kain in my party I used it all the time. Come to think of it I can't really remember any time I used much of anything else with him.

Depends on the time of the game for me. Early on Dark Wave managed to end alot of irritating battles against multiple foes, really quick, but later on Jump owned them all.

DarkWave... it made the game easier. Then Dart started owning. Throwing the Excalibur 99 times (if you duplicated items like I did
 ) will take care of that zeromus real quick. This post has been edited by l)arkShadow on 14th October 2004 21:43 |

I just realised that this topic was in the FFIV forum.
 So my answer doesn't technically count. Well, Cecil had it, but...in FFIV, mine was Twin. I, unfortuantely, didn't have one of the Twins in the Milon battle, so I was Twinless.  -------------------- You know. I think you're a very special unit. |

Jump and Twin, though I think Twin counts as magic. It's quite a magical effect that it has..

Dark Wave is all-powerful at first, but then it quickly loses its usefulness. Other than that, Jump and/or Dart.
