Also.
I think FF7 was a good game, not the best. This video sums up my thoughts on it.

Wakka is the strongest character in FF X with attack reels...
Yuna doesn't need to be on that list either she has higher stats for ultima and does it better than Lulu herself until you bump them both up

I'd honestly have to say Limit Breaks from VII and VIII. Also was amazing that they took priority over anything.
Aura + Lionheart spam anyone?
I'd also have to mention the Full ATB abilities from XIII. Army of One, Last Resort, and Highwind being my favorites.

Screw Wakka-Wakka, it's all about Zell! Dolphin *** blow.

Depends on how much time you spent into the sphere grid and if you have the correct overdrive charge, then you'd have to consider the abilities each person has. Late in the game you can charge the overdrive incredibly fast and spam this for 99k each shot if you took the time to increase their stats that much.

Effectively ruining the game. FFX was terribly unbalanced, removing the 9999 cap was a big mistake.

The sphere grid can overwrite silly stat spheres with clear spheres and then you can use power magic speed spheres etc etc to make it add +4 to a stat instead of +1 or +2.
This can be done so all characters can achieve 255 of each stat.
The only unique thing about FFX characters is yuna's aeons and overdrives :<

probably, I can tell you that I only cared to level my characters to the point where they hit for 12 to 20k on overdrives, it takes a lot of time to make the true cap happen as you would need that or very high stats to win most of the harder coliseum fights

Yea I can admit that as soon as Break Damage Limit came into FFX, it took away the feeling of danger for most mobs in the game.
Anyway, I am going to list everyones answer to the above question. I would assume that FF7/8 Limit Breaks will win, however we might see a surprise.

There is a definite trend going on here, and it seems that Limit Breaks, mostly from FFVII and FFVIII, come out on top.
Omnislash appears to be the one limit break that is singled out more then any other.
Here is the list of answers. If your answer is not here, it is because it is not a "Special Ability".
Limit Breaks (18) - Omnislash (5), The End (2) Lionheart, Tifa's Limits, Renzokuken, FFVI Limits.
Trance (2) - Grand Lethal
Invincible, Azure Lore
Overdrive
Mimic
Safe to say, Omnislash will represent "Limit Breaks", as the most useful special abilities.
Also if I personally had to pick one, I would say Great Gospel. If Aeris had lived past the first disc, well .. you can imagine how much easier the game would have been. However people usually didn't waste the time to get it if they knew what was going to happen, or just simply didn't know how to get it.

There's Cyan's special ability with the zombie glitch!
Yea Cyans glitch could have come under the most useful glitches category. It's only that good because of the glitch, and not because it is naturally strong. Although yea, its freaking awesome.

The Weakest Character?
In Final Fantasy, we have characters that are regularly used, and other characters who we almost never use unless we have too.
So who is the weakest of them all? And why?

I'm pretty sure Edward is going to be a popular name. I'm sorry, but when you get him and you see 'Hide' on your command list?
As far as strength? Our staff/flute/doll wielders, of course. I remember hitting something with a staff when you first get Yuna and someone is all, "Uh, let us handle this."

But Selphie was perky and peppy.
As I sit here during the maintenance, I would like to begin an idea I conjured up while working. Simply put, I would like to find out what everyone believes are the absolute best and worst aspects of the Final Fantasy series.
I watched some youtube videos last night, and it seems a lot of the "Top 5" videos are pretty biased, as some youtube users like different FF more then others.
When it comes to FF, I am good at being unbiased. I can admit to playing FF1, 2, 12 and 13 without clearing them, while completing the following titles: FF Mystic Quest, FF 4, 5, 6, 7, 7 DOC, 8, 9, 10, and 10-2. I would love to include FFXI in this, as anyone who makes a list of the series best and worst tends to leave it out for some unknown reason... like they don't want it to exist??
I can admit to never playing FF3, 13-2, Crisis Core or any other I have not listed, so help may be needed on those.
So you may be thinking, how will we decide? What aspects of the game should we look into? Below is a list of questions that I would like to see answered.
- The best game?
- The best lead character?
- The best support character? (Basically any good character who you can party with, who is NOT the lead character. I do not mean support like a Mage.)
- The most evil villain?
- The game with the best music?
- The game with the best battle and level system?
- The greatest special ability? (2 hours, Limit Breaks, Overdrives, Trance etc.)
- The hardest boss fight ever?
- The rarest item ever?
- The rarest fight?
- The hardest weapon to make?
- The best main storyline?
- The worst main storyline?
- The best jobs?
- The worst jobs?
- The most pointless quests ever?
- The hardest quests to complete?
- The biggest spam move ever? (As in, you repeat the move constantly for an advantage)
- The biggest glitches that benefit you?
- The weakest party character ever? (Can be any character who you can "control" in a party)
- The hardest end boss?
- The most useful magic spell ever?
- The greatest summon/esper/eidolon?
- The best mini-game?
- The worst mini-game?
- The best tank character. (PLD, High defense etc.)
- The best damage dealing character
- The best magic support character (WHM, cures etc.)
Can you think of anymore??? If you can, let me know and I shall add it to the list.
I will reserve a post below to show the results, so you people do not have to go looking for them. Also I would like to ask these questions randomly (maybe more then one at a time) and keep them up until we have a sufficient answer. You can simply vote on what you feel is right, and by explaining your answers, you may encourage others to agree with you and vote the same way.
