If you're playing the GBA or PSP versions, then Masters, Ninjas, and Knights are much closer together in usefulness.

Actually I'm very dissapointed by the Ninja in the PSP version. Lowest HP of all "fighter" classes, and even lower than the white mage (although the problem is more that the HP of the white mage are too high). The Ninja does not hit harder than the Knight. (my knight as Excalibur and ninja masamune!!!).

so yeah, dissapointing

'Nuff said.

HSUP B TCELES

Well after pwning FF1 (DoS) with Knight, Ninja, White, and Black party (lvl 60ish) I decided to attempt it again but with a pure Knight party...

Well I finally beat Chaos with them. I had to level them to 99 and use ALOT of items.

Using Giants Gloves and Hermes Shoes I up'd my Knights attack power and hasted them over 4 rounds, while keeping 1 Knight per round free to use healing items (x-Pots, Elixers, and Megalixers)

Suprisingly enough, if you get lucky and Chaos doesn't use alot of aoe spells this fight is pretty easy. I managed to beat him in about 6 rounds, only using 1 x-pot, and 1 megalixer... I haven't fought through the Whisperwind bosses or attempted Omega, and Shinryu. I will let you know how those battles turn out.

EDIT: Omega and Shinryu are impossible with an all Knight party ;p

Going to try a 2 Master, 2 Red Wizard party. Should be ALOT easier than the 4 Knight party...

1: knight level 94 with the sword ultima weapon(from wisper wind cove floor 40 after the boss)
2:ninja level 93 with the katana masume(from the boss omage in lifespring grotto floor 30)
3:white wizerd level 94 with the katana masumane(it is the most powerful sword in the original verson of the game)
4:red wizerd (rocks if used right) level 94 with the sword lightbringer((holy when used)from the boss deaths gaze in wisperwind cove floor 40)

this is in the psp verson of the game


--------------------

I may not be good at comebacks but i rock at everything else... Wait... I suck at all that too.

My first completion was with a Black Belt, Thief, White Mage, and Black Mage. It took over a year because I was only 3 (4 when I completed it) and wasn't much for strategy.

Later I did the RM/RM/WM/BM "Supermagic" party, and I got pretty far with 4 fighters but I couldn't get to the Undersea Shrine... I forget what kept killing me though.

I've tried a lot of other combinations but the only other one I actually beat the game with was Thief/Fighter/Black Mage/Red Mage (as silly as that order is, yes, that order - Nuklear Power, anyone?). That was on Dawn of Souls, though.

I also successfully did a Level 1 Class Change, by way of killing off my Fighter and White & Black Mages and advancing my Red Mage (same growth rates as Red Wizard, so no penalty for leveling him up a lot) enough to do the Ordeal. Biggest problem was definitely the Ice Cave.

A demon wakens with the night,
reviling sun and all things bright.
Evil's friend and virtue's foe;
Darkness comes where Nightfall goes.

When I first went through on the NES version I used 2 Fighters, A Black Mage and a White Mage. On the PSX version I decided to go with all thieves and then all Red Mages

My fave party to use:

Red, fighter
Volt, red mage
Sarah, white mage
Leon, black mage

Also:

Volt, fighter
Red, thief
Sarah, white mage
Leon, black mage

Most recent(class upgraded, only lich dead):

Volt, red mage
Red, fighter
Sarah, white mage
Leon, thief

My group is really quite simple. Maybe because I just started.

Warrior

Monk

Black Mage

White Mage

And if anyone knows how I can name input my own names for them on the PSP version I would really like to know.

--------------------

Whats up guys?

My and my friends decided to make an FF party, so I now have a new file

Lyger wanted a Warrior
I picked Monk
Advent chose Red Mage
And Angel picked White Mage

I had a Knight, Red Wizard, Black Wizard, and Ninja at the end and I couldn't beat Omega or Shinryu to save my life

I picked the following

2 Black Mages
2 White Mages

--------------------

Hadoken!

Fighter
Black Mage
White Mage
Fighter

Hi guys I'm new \. I like to use 2 fighters, a black mage and a white mage. A bit expensive, with the fighters and all, but it makes things way easier to kill

--------------------

One to be born from a dragon
hoisting the light and the dark
arises high up in the sky
to the still land.
Veiling the moon with the light of eternity
it brings another promise to mother earth
with a bounty and mercy.

I usually go Fighter, Monk, White Mage, and Black Mage. I've just never been fond of the Thief.

I've only beat the game with Knight, Master, WM and BW. Which is the same part as yours. However recently I found Fighter, Thief, RM and BM to be really useful. Thief has enough attacking power to be slightly useful and running away in most dungeons is usually the best option. After the upgrade the thief kick so much arse that it's almost blinding. The black magic is eh but they can equip almost as much weapons and armor as the fighter and still have great evade and escaping skills.

--------------------

If god is all-forgiving then why do we have to kill people in his name?

My one run through (so far) was that party too. Next I wanna' give a go with an RM, Fighter, Thief and I'm not sure between WM or BM or another RM.

I have only played the Advance version (once).

I know you didn't asked but I'm also telling you how I named my guys. Actually, I was lazy and went through the default names until I found something of my liking, except one.

Desh the fighter – Who doesn't use a fighter?. The name: From FFII, whoop-de for NPCs that have more personality than main characters.
Gerad the thief – Thieves suck, but ninjas are worth it. The name: I just HAD to.
Sosa the red mage – My favorite class, they might not shine at the end, but they are well rounded for the majority of the game. Besides the pimp hat is pimpin'. The name: If you read 8-bit theater you'll probably know why. Or maybe I should have gone with Deborah?
Elia the white mage – I always get paranoid if I don't have a reliable source (or two) of healing with me. The name: FFIII again, see Desh, also I like her theme tune.

I didn't use the monk because I don't like the pure brawl types. On the other side of the spectrum is the black mage, he/she got benched for the opposite reason. It's funny, black mages or elemental/natural mages are my favorite class in other kind of games.

"Love, and do what you will" Saint Augustine

The exact same as Sandyboots. I could say some stuff, but he's stated all my opinions. the only differences are the name: I have Rob the fighter, Clive the thief, James the red mage and Jon the white mage.

--------------------

Snooping as usual, I see?

Yoink?

My first party on the NES was Fighter, Fighter, White Mage, Black Mage, mostly because it was what I was told was the best party. I still think it is for the NES version.

On the GBA, I did a lot of experimenting. My favorite party ended up being Fighter, Red Mage, Thief, and Monk. I liked variety, and I liked bone-crushing normal attacks. Magic? That's for healing and making normal attacks all the more destructive.

--------------------

this is a blog mostly about comics and videogames
END SPOILER

My first party consited of a warrior, a monk, a white mage, and a black mage.

My party for my second run of the game(to complete the art gallery) had a warrior, a theif, a white mage, and a red mage. I don't like having multiples of the same class in my party.

--------------------

FF games completed: I (psp), II (psp), III (DS), IV (psp), V (GBA), VI (GBA), VII, VIII, IX, X, XI: Nations-Rhapsodies of Vana'diel, XII, XIII, XIV, XV.
Spin-offs: FFIV: Interlude & The After Years, Crisis Core: FFVII, X-2, XIII-2, Lightning Returns, Type-0 HD, Dissidia, Dissidia 012, and Tactics (original & WotL).
Enjoyed them all.

My current party is 4 Masters
We just beat Kraken, maxed out our money and the clock just hit 5 hours of gameplay

SNES, PSX or GBA version? Cause the last one is pretty easy (in comparision to the others...:x)

I used a WM, RM (<- Has the important low level black magic like haste & steel + WM + decent attack power...so..it isnt that bad), Monk and thief. Though, in the next playthrough I would trade the thief for a other monk or knight. even ninja isnt THAT strong, IMHO a RM is better, not much less atk pwr (GBA version) + a whole bunch of nice spells whcih can be useful.

Fighter/Fighter/White Mage/Black Mage.

I wanted to try a Red Mage since I like them so much, but never got around to it.

I have beaten the game with

Fighter; Blackmage; Whitemage; Redmage

I am currently trying

Fighter; Blackmage; Redmage; Thief

Am hoping to try

Fighter; Monk; Monk; Redmage

I'm doing four warriors, because I hate mages in this game. idk why

I usually go for Fighter, thief, wm, bm, but i'm now doing a 4 wm playthrough and it's making my brain hurt

--------------------

No matter how hard I try, I just can't get worried about it!
