I'll work out other combos later. These are the ones I'm considering right now.

... Tifa and Red might make better berserkers. Change Cloud and Cid into mage-knights by adding attack magic to their spell lists...

My team of choice was always Cloud (Modded into a melee berserker with healing backup), Aeris (Primary Healer/Caster), and Barrett (Long range fighter with attack magic backup), with Red XIII taking Aeris' place in the endgame.

Alright. Tentative endgame characters (if these combos are even possible):

Tifa (Monk)- Slash All (paired with Final Attack), Speed Plus, Double Cut (paired with Counter).

Cloud (Paladin)- Restore (paired with All), Life (paired with Final Attack), Barrier (paired with All), Counter, Cover, Heal.

Barrett (Mage/Summoner)- HP Plus, Enemy Skills, summons, offensive magics.

I am not entirely sure that Slash-all and Double Cut can be paired with blue materia.

Like I said, "if these combos are even possible."

This is all in theory. I might replace Barrett with Red because I think I recall Red being stronger in Magic. In practice, the teams might be different.

It would be like them to avoid having Slash and Double Cut being awesome, though. The fuckers.

Does anyone even use Cait-Sith when it's not required? I mean, just out of curosity. Is he even remotely useful at all?

I rotate all my characters evenly in every RPG i play so yea I use him. and if you want to break double-cut MFD

Double Cut
Master Skill + HP absorb.

It adds HP absorb to the fight command and you attack 4 times.

Cait Sith has the highest natural HP out of everyone, and Yuffie's final weapon does really well the weaker you are to your opponent, so in a rushed lower level game, they're probably better in many ways than the other.

...of course, I never used Cait Sith, but Yuffie was a pretty constant member of my party. 'specially since I usually get her several levels above my party.

Wait, Yuffies final weapon does damage based on the power of the boss compared to you?

So if I had done my game using her, I could have beaten sephey in one hit?!

GRARAAAHHHHHHH!

Well, it still can't breach 9999, but yeah. The more powerful the enemy compared to her, the more damage it does.

Considering my attacks averaged at 2000, I'd take it.

So. Slightly modified, here's how I see AVALANCHE working, post-Aeris. These characters will always have their materia equipped as soon as I get them:

Cid/Barrett (Warrior)- Deathblow (Added Cut), elemental offensive magic (Elemental) [elements will vary], Counter Attack, HP Plus.

Tifa (Monk)- Slash All (Final Attack), Speed Plus, Double Cut (Counter).

Cloud (Paladin)- Restore (All), Life, Phoenix (Final Attack), Barrier (All), Comet (Magic Counter), Cover, Heal, HP Plus.

Red XIII (Mage/Summoner)- HP Plus, Alexander, Bahamut ZERO, Ifrit, Leviathan, Odin, Shiva, Titan, Contain, Earth, Fire, Ice, Lightning, Ultima, Magic Plus, Mega All.

Yuffie/Vincent (Ninja)- Steal, Bio (Added Effect), Time, Throw (Steal With), Gil Plus, Slash All (Sneak Attack), Pre-emptive, Speed Plus.

Cait Sith's a fucker, and he can go die like Aeris did. Fin!

EDIT: Cait Sith (Blue Mage)- Manipulate, Enemy Skills.

In line with FF7 character discussion, is Vincent any good? By the time I got him, I was on disk III, so there wasn't any point, but would he have been good if I picked him up properly?

Cid
Cloud
Barrett.

They have the best damage yeild for limits.

Most characters are really only different stats-wise and limit-break-wise.

Vincent's limit morphed him into a hideous berserking beast, the final beast being Chaos.

Depends on what you like.

EDIT: I just recalled that blue magic sucks. Above post will be edited accordingly.
