Maybe I should use Zo next time. Hey even if I always use Tatiana and of course the main, I still have a slot for him. Hey it would make deciding the wind user easy. Hmm Katerina (Noble), Tatiana, Zo, Fairy and Undine maybe.
Theme a team up. Make a ācolorful charactersā team. Zo, Fullbright, Tatyana, Yuki, andā¦ the most colorful main?
Its no fun to justā¦ recruit dudesā¦
People who just use the basic bunch (Thomas, julian, ellen, etc) until the end of the game bore me 
Hey! when I played through RS3 (Iāve only actually went ahead and finished the game once :P), I used Julian, Ellen, Thomas, Wood, and Robin. Theyāre pretty awesome, and Iām a bigger fan of using characters you can get really early. Thatās why I donāt use other characters like Yousei, Zo, or whoever else. Though, I must admit, Robin was pretty crappy. If I played through again, I would likely not use him. Everyone else in my group I was thoroughly pleased with.
Iām suddenly bored
I used regular Robin in my Katarina party and somehow he managed to swing off Final Letter (never gotten it since). He kicked ass with it.
If you want a late-char party challenge, use Mikhail, Undine, Tiberius, Leonid, and Yan Fan. I call it the āLeadersā party, and damn, did I have a hard time making them good.
I would agree that Yan Fan would be very hard to make goodā¦but for example, Mikhail and Leonid, are justā¦good. It seems like an average, ok party though.
Mikhailās good? I never liked him. He doesnāt specialize in anything, so he ends up being a jack of all trades, master of none.
Leonidās not so hot against the final boss. Once he goes down, heās down. I used the Genbu formation to double his regen.
Kagon (He did the RS3 shrine here) showed me that Mikhail is actually pretty damn good with spears. Youāre right about Leonid though, heh. At least youāre not using like, Herman or the Snowman, lol!
Leonidās not so hot against the final boss. Once he goes down, heās down. I used the Genbu formation to double his regen.
Eh?
Iād say that he pretty much rocks. Use Genbu as you said and the Dark Wing doesnāt hurt him anyway (a GOOD thing). Place in a rarely targeted place (the far up or down of Genbu) and youāre pretty much set for some kickass undead actions. Tiger Breaks rocks against the Destroyer and increase your stats, too so youāll deal more and more damage 
Yeah, but if he uses fatal mirror though, thatās a one way trip to damnnation, the best damn nation there is 
Well, thereās always hope and save(states) ^_~
In my Katarina party, I had her, Robin, Black, Boston, and the Snowman. He was useless as far as damage went, so I just had him every battle casting Waterball and the two water heal spells.
It kicked ass because my whole team had regen every turn and waterball just rocks.
I usually take Thomas (sword + magic), Poet (Axes or Martial Arts), Muse (Big Sword + magic), Zhi Ling and Sharl. They pretty much rock though I havenāt been using water magic for a long time now. I usually take moon and earth for someone.
Snowman can be pretty good for ātankā purposes but donāt except him to dish out the damage before lv20 (most characters tend to ācatch upā with the weapon when hitting lv20). And you must remember to use dexterity weapons (Epee, Bow) 'cos his Strength is way down.
Anyway, you should really check out Snow Wandererās awesome FAQ (still under construction). The latest update is at:

Enjoy 
Snow Wander knows me too well when it comes to Tatiana Razajev. But heās right, I must use her every chance I get. Besides being a run away girl it makes sense for her not to be well uber, but ah well.
You changed your avatar again now itās Sophia from Star Ocean.
Aaaaaaah itās just like Anime on DVD. Even here my avatar changing gets noticed. Yes it is Sophia of course. Iām in a Star Ocean till the end of time mood right now.
I donāt mind the name change so long as SaGa is somewhere in there and the fact that they donāt totally overhaul the gameplay, IMO thatās what makes the SaGa games so unique. Ajora, how is the new S.O.?
Star Ocean till the end of time is definitely very good. It was worth playing plus I love Maria the most. I just need a better image of her eventually. Still Sophia is pretty cool with all the spells she gets. Iām also a fan of Peppita and of course Nel. Itās one of those games that takes a bit of time to get used to though. So just like the SaGa series, Star Ocean till the end of time while not hard per say is also not a game that letās people win.
I think the combat system is a bit over complicated.
Hmmm, so Star Ocean 3 is actually good, huh? I thought Star Ocean 2 was like, the worst RPG I ever played, so I didnāt even bother to try SO3, haha
Yes Star Ocean 3 is good. Of course I also think Star Ocean 2 is also. Although SO3 is better. And I never found SO3 to be too complicated then again I never found a bunch of other games to be complicated so what do I know?
