he1senberg Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Just wondering who your favorite party members are/were, and why? It can be based off of their utility, versatility, personality, or whatever else that floats your boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faki Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Óengus! Aurora's "Elevate damage" + him in my team meant instant-win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
he1senberg Posted May 2, 2014 Author Share Posted May 2, 2014 I just got him so I haven't had a chance to try him out yet, but I did like the fact that he not only has haste, but also a passive that increases the duration of it. I like Robert and Finn because I've always been fond of archers and black mages. Robert also has a pretty nice critical and dodge rate, but his physical-damage-only skillset kind of limits his utility when you come across physical resistant enemies.

King David Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Aurora. Mid-game I didn't use her as much because I focused on Finn and Robert. I brought her back near the end of the game and the dark creatures hardly stood a chance. Her Light Ray packed a punch. Golem was my favorite power character until Óengus arrived. I used them both in battle at once, but Óengus is just more powerful so I benched Golem. I liked the character of Golem more. Gen and Rubella were very helpful in healing and slowing down opponents, but I would start getting behind and felt like I was reviving them more than fighting. I never used Tristis. Top 3: Aurora, Óengus and Finn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xciter Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I used Tristis mainly for his haste and unstoppable skills. Currently using Aurora and Óengus for the damages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NDO95 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I mainly used Aurora and Rubella for a while and Finn whenever magic was needed. The I started using Norah because her status effects were very useful [spoiler=norah]until the bitch betrayed me -_- Then from getting Óengus I only used him and Aurora. Óengus is awesome.

theDane21 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I used Tristis mainly for his haste and unstoppable skills. Currently using Aurora and Óengus for the damages. I use him with Aurora most of the time, for the same reason (Unstoppable skill) : comes in handy at boss fights. You don't have to worry about getting interrupted all the time. I have used everybody a little bit and I switch mid battle at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuhg3ddaboud1t Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Maybe I'm not that far into the game, but I only have up to Norah. Who comes next? Favorite characters: Aurora and Norah But I use them all balanced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
he1senberg Posted May 2, 2014 Author Share Posted May 2, 2014 Maybe I'm not that far into the game, but I only have up to Norah. Who comes next? Favorite characters: Aurora and Norah But I use them all balanced I think Robert (an archer) should be next. Like a couple of others here, I'm starting to main Aurora a lot more. Very versatile damage dealer between her Light Ray and Slash attacks, with above average and balanced stats to back them up. I've been holding onto all of the stardust because I haven't been sure on how I've wanted to distribute them (i.e. evenly to all party members, or all to 1-3 party members). Depending on how much I like the last party member, I think I'll end up giving the Lion's share to Aurora, with maybe a bone or two to Finn to boost his speed and magic.

alx681 Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 aurora, robert and rubella as of now but i'm only halfway through the game so still have a few more to unlock. loving this game, the one thing i would have liked is, if the game had a 3 member party system and not just 2.

dyniner Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Óengus kicks ass but I like using Rubella for healing and Robert for his bow skills alongside Aurora. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBeens Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Gen -> Paralyze All + Aurora -> Starlight All = Easy win against even the toughest of bosses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clippin Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Óengus and Golem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McTricky Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Norah is best character. I used her for boss battles due to her support skills, and with her decent strength stat, she was able to assist in damage output as well. Aurora was almost exclusively in my party. Except for one particular boss fight in endgame where I relied on Finn exclusively. The combo of Oengus and Aurora and the tanking technique works wonders. I beat the final boss, with just those two exclusively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco_de_Mars Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 My favourite carachter was Norah. She was the most useful and versatile. This filthy sista b**ch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Flagg Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 (edited) Aurora and Oengus, using his Taunt+Defend, then just let loose with Aurora's multiple target attacks. Used a few combinations throughout but that was my favourite. Robert and Finn were pretty good too. Finn having all 3 types of magic attack (Fire/water/electricity) was handy. Dropped Gen in for a group slow down or speed up when I had the chance, and Rubella for healing, then brought back one of the big 4 right away. I used Tristis maybe twice, cycled him out.

Absolution05 Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Norah's skillset basically spoiled the story as it relates to her. When I started using her and took a look at her skill tree I thought, "No character this good ever sticks around in rpgs." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PS4Xerios Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Played the entire game with Aurora/Finn - tried some others - went back to old faithful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedarkness91 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Oengus simply because of the high HP and huge base damage. I like Finn too because once you have all 3 spells to 3 stars and get Rage of the Capilli then you have one badass wizard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bomatt6 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Norah, because she's pretty....really, that's why... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GearsOfTheDead Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Actually, I found most of the party useless. I liked Aurora and her Starlight ability because it did good damage even to non-dark enemies. Finn was great for fire/water/lightning and I used him often. Oengus was just brute power and he was my third most used once he joined. I used Rubella for a while, but Oengus and Finn were just more useful. Finn was more useful when more spells/upgrades were unlocked. The rest just didn't do enough to make it worth using them. I used Tristis maybe twice, and Gen maybe twice. Norah...she was kinda cool, but...well...yeah. [spoiler=red]Too bad she was evil and then you kill her by the end. She won't be back for any potential DLC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naps Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Kept the two siblings paired until you-know-what... damn, wasted quite a few stardusts coz I wanted to make them balanced. Biggest mistake I made in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m22rdy Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Aurora & Óengus Óengus was clearly the strongest character, and I had Aurora fully buffed with anything I collected throughout the game. When it came to New Game+ I blitzed it with them until I had collected enough shards to complete my Princess Diamond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tagzero Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Rubella was my choice for most of the game; cool design, her attack was great for interrupt and was surprisingly strong, good healing/status -- plus I laughed out loud when she couldn't rhyme.
