Who did you mainly use in your party? The four I usually used were Zidane, Vivi, Dagger, and Eiko. I really liked the magic in this party. I loved using Dagger and Eiko's summons. I also liked using Vivi's Doomsday because it was really strong and healed my party.(I had the right equipment.) Finally I used Zidane becuase he was the main character and I loved stealing from all the bosses. They had great items. He also had a strong attack.

I mainly used Zidane, Vivi, Garnet, and Eiko/Steiner. Zidane is really strong and has great speed, Vivi is the only person that can cast black magic, Garnet had high magic and had powerful eidolons, Eiko could use holy and fulli-life, and Steiner had Shock and could do high damage to enemies. I would switch off Eiko and Steiner though from time to time. I used the rest of the characters, but I used mainly these five.
