Nobody gets the paladin shield or snow muffler? biggrin.gif

I can't recall what each person wears, but I usually end up with the following three parties:

Terra, Locke, Sabin, Strago
Mog, Relm, Setzer, Cyan
Gogo, Umaro, Gau, Edgar

First party is a good mix of spellcasting and melee, second party usually goes through with the moogle charm (but I keep relm in there for good spellcasting ability on the boss fights), and the third party is just a fun thing I do. "The Freaks" ... with edgar telling them what to do!

Your equipment shows a hint of personal touch rather then hitting the 'Optimum' button, and that's good. What I would change is:

Sabin should trade the Regal Crown for a Red Cap
Celes, Relm and Terra should all trade their headgear for the Mystery Veil (worse defenses but Speed boost and 10 % Mblock)
Shadow can lose the Strato for something less boring. Consider a Sniper or a Pearl Lance. I'd also swap the Scimitar for a Wing Edge but that's up to you.
Gogo should definately have a Merit Award to make up for his sucky equipment. If you don't want that, nix the Dark Gear and use a Tao Robe for increased everything.
I can't approve of any Setzer who isn't a Dragoon, to be honest, but do whatever you feel like.

Good enough otherwise, though.

When I fight the final battle, I normally use just party 1. Have Edgar and Sabin fight with regular attacks, Celes fight and cast spells, Strago lobbing Pearl Wind, Quasar and Grandtrain.

He was asking for what you outfit all three parties with to maneuver through the tower, not how you kill Kefka. wacko.gif

My save file got erased a long time ago. However I do remember Mog, here is how I had him equiped:

Weapon:
Aura Lance
Sheild:
Paladin Shield
Helmet:
Genji Helmet
Armor:
Snow Muffler
Relics:
Safety Bit
Ribbon.

Why did I equip him like this? Look again, he is almost invincable. One HP damage for physical attacks and immunity or abosortion to all elemental damage. No status ailments can hit him and nither can the instant death attacks. The only problem is with non-elemental spells and even then I can just use Cure 3 and I am fine again. Super Mog to the rescue thumbup.gif .

So isn't the opposite of progress Congress?
