Wait wait wait wait. My third favorite game has a thread!? That.... is..... AWESOME!

I will make my first post saying my top five favorite songs in the game.

1. Zanza. Really gets your blood pumping for the final boss, and makes you just wanna rip him to shreads. I absolutely love how intense it gets, given the stakes of the battle.
2. Satorl Marsh Night. Beautiful music for a beautiful environment. This is my favorite place in any video game.
3. Prison Island. The tension of coming to this place, and slowly ascending to the top, wondering what will happen. This music really knows what the player is feeling.
4. One Who Gets In Our Way. Expected, but I never get tired of this track, even after all the bosses it plays in. Easily one of my favorite boss themes ever.
5. Snowy Valak Mountain. Perfectly fits the snowy atmosphere. Gives the sense of isolation and how far you have gotten away from home. Absolute beautiful track.

No Mechanical Rhythm? What's wrong with you?

I'd consider the top one a spoiler as well, so be careful.

Wow, can't believe I forgot that. Thanks for the heads up.

I love that one too! Mechonis Field as well! That whole area gets unnecessary hate imo. Loved the machinery feel to it.

Yeah, a great soundtrack there. Agniratha's was quite good as well for the atmosphere, but it wasn't a classic for me really. Too forgettable. The music which plays when fighting Bana is quite good as well, but I think it's only in the game like 3 times (that fight, the scene after fighting Gold Face in Galahad and fighting the boss after Yaldaboth in Mechonis Core).

Actually, I remember Agniratha's, especially the night version. Given the circumstances, it fit wonderfully.

Ah, I know what song you are talking about. That was just absolutely stunning, that whole sequence. Dickson's betrayal threw me off guard completely.

 



Estelle and Adol... best characters ever! XD

Are we starting again? I really missed our Arguments

And I meant the Heropon and Fiora so if those are the worst characters for you. Then you are right.

But they are the last two, not the first two...

I have never said they are the first two, just two. And the first two Squamates are not the worst! They are solid.

I'm afraid they are the worst. There's no defined role for them, unlike the other characters (Sharla is a healer but other characters do that fine).

I used Fiora as a tank due to her speed, and she was beastly.

Yeah a great tank, sadly I felt that her strength was lacking just a bit, and I prefered Dunban's Arts, but it was all good for both of them really.

Sharla seems to be essential at first, but ultimately she is pretty useless. I took down the strongest UMs with only Shulk as healer and without Melia who some people think of as super awesome.

Melia is super-awesome. Sharla is not, because although her healing is the best, most of her arts have too long a cooldown and she can never do damage. Riki is perfect for that role.

I had Melia fulfill the role of damage dealer, Fiora as the tank (although she can do damage too), and Shulk as the healer/buffer. Sharla is good at the beginning, but her usefulness slowly goes away the more hp your characters have.

I used Melia for only one boss fight, whenever I used here else I lost. She sucks. I mean two attack from any boss and she is done. She might do some solid damage until she dies, and she dies very soon.

She has good attacks as well tough. I think she might be the most verstaile character in the whole game. I used her in the last fight.  She was my favourite character
