Why use Half MP on an Assassin, when you should use Concentrate for 95% Last Breath/Rock Seal/Ultima Masher? What good is Half MP when you can't hit the person? Unless you're savestate abusing, you should be using Concentrate. Assassin's MP growth is not crap, by the way. The only higher MP Growth in the Viera tree is a Summoner. That being said, your Viera must have been an Archer for a load of levels or something to explain the crappy MP it has.
Also, I recommend Fighter Tech instead of Aim for your Hunter. Only thing I ever used an Archer for was the Boost, and that'd only be used once on the first turn when everything was out of reach. With Fighter Tech, you can Beatdown (I can't recall if Concentrate improves the accuracy for this or not) for 2x damage, no MP cost, and Rush people off of cliffs or into better positions for Area of Effect spells and skills.
I've always been partial to Templar/Gladiator for Bangaa, using an Odin's Lance. Damage isn't as high as an Estreledge, but he can Haste, Cheer, and pierce two panels.
Anyways. You're missing a Peytral, and an Acacia Hat on your characters. And people use Shields for the EVA not the DEF.
Ok, ill change the knightsword weapons now, thanx for telling me that.
Also unless my game is glitchy or buggy, concentrate doesn't stack up the chances with a successful last breath or rockseal (but it does for ultima masher though). Still I can cover the accuracy from attacking behind.
Fighter skills may be good but Archer skills give unfriendly buffs which are extremely useful in incapitating the enemy, something which fighter doesn't have. Fighters yes they have superior high damaging skills but they cannot dish out unfriendly buffs which I can use to pin down the enemy thus I use Archers aim skills.
Templars are one of the best bangaa jobs (I've even used them before).
I've polayed this game like several times and 70% of the time I use Dragoon/Templars, Dragoon/Gladiators or Templar/Gladiators so in this one, I'm relying on a defensive and offensive bangaa. This combo worked out well (except for the battle tech skills with exception to downsize) as he has superior defense against all characters and can dish out HEAVY damage equivalent to my previous bangaas.
As for the Peytral and the Acacia Hat, I DO have them except I seriously cant be bothered in the tourneys especially the clan tourney in getting hte peytral.
Oh and as for your latest post, I totally have to agree with you, Moogles are the worst magicians I've probably ever used and I find it horrifying that Montblanc starts off with Black Mage stats which makes it a real pain raising it as a mog knight/gunner.
