Just wondering how you guys split your characters for Kefka's Tower. I know some people do it differently each time, but I usually end up with the same three parties every time.

Team #1:
Terra
Umaro
Shadow
Gogo

Terra uses a gold hairpin to heal and cast spells, and with Gogo miming Ultima and Shadow throwing things, it doesn't even matter that Umaro screws up and heals things half the time with Blizzard.

Team #2:
Locke
Celes
Setzer
Mog

Celes has the economizer and Locke has the Gengi Glove and Offering, so they really could do this by theirselves, but I drag the two useless (sorry Mog fans) along just in case.

Team #3:
Sabin
Edgar
Relm
Strago

Oddly enough, Sabin is usually the magic user of this party, because I've been using him so much he knows all the spells. With Relm controlling guys, this group really doesn't run into too much trouble, which is good because Strago is essentially useless to me (I'm lucky if he goes into the tower knowing anything more than Aqua Rake.)

i usually change it every time. but these were the parties the first time i played through. (surprisingly, i can still remember it)

team 1--

Terra
Cyan
Relm
Edgar

easily explained. Terra used attack magic. Cyan used Dispatch, Stunner, or Quadra Slice. Relm used healing magic if needed, otherwise Control, if that didn't work, attack magic. Edgar, i had a genji glove, so i alternated between physical attack and drill. Occasionally, i used the auto-crossbow for multiple enemies

team 2--

Sabin
Gau
Celes
Strago

by far, the most powerful group i had. Sabin and the Merit Award were killer. I didn't even need his blitzes or his magic as long as his physical attacks hit that high. Gau raged either StrayCat [Cat Scratch], Tyranosaur [Meteo], or if i needed it Magic Urn [Cure 3 (all)]. Celes was a do-everything attacker. Strago used Pearl Wind if Gau didn't do Magic Urn or did Clean Sweep [best lore at the time]

team 3--

Shadow
Setzer
Locke
Mog

I made sure to stock up on swords and dirks and ninja stars for Shadow. Imp Halberds are killer when thrown :). Setzer alternated between GP Rain [cause let's face it, money at this point is useless] and Pearl [his strongest spell at that point]. Locke did Capture to see if they had  anything useful to steal. Mog did a dance [Water Rondo, Desert Aria, or the mountain one whose name escapes me] If none of those went through, Mog used healing magic.

that's what it was for me

whoever my weaker char's were
I had Mog use the Moogle charm so it didn't matter
When it was statue time I had the other teams  leave the tower and return again in the positions that Mog's group was in so that Mog's group didn't have to fight

It really depends on the people that I'm using for my main party that time through, but I happen to be there right now on the challenge game.  Here are my parties.

Sabin-Strago-Gogo-Locke.

Sabin was one of my main four, Strago has good magic, Gogo is good all around, and Locke is just there because I don't want to bring Setzer and this is one of my strongest parties.

Gau-Celes-Mog-Relm

Gau was one of my main four, Celes has some magic (though I need to level her up quite a bit more), I have all of Mog's dances, and Relm is just there for the same reason that I brought along Locke.

Terra-Edgar-Umaro-Cyan

Terra and Edgar were part of my main four, Umaro is extremely powerful, and Cyan is there like Relm and Locke...he's pretty useless without weapons. :p

Can Relm not control people without a weopon? Or is not equipping relics part of the challenge, too?

She can control, but it's just not all that useless in Kefka's Tower, IMO.  Plus, she's extremely weak physically without the aid of espers, and even though her magic power is high, she can't learn any spells without espers, either.
