My favorite Endgame party always had Fei and Citan. The other one wasn't as important, but I think I usually had Emerelda. Basically, anyone but Rico. I'd take the fuzzy pink thing before Rico...

As to why your party sucks, we'd need more detail.

I hated Citan, but he's inarguably the best character in the game. My final party was always Fei, Emeralda (adult form, of course) and Citan.

Basically, anyone but Rico. I'd take the fuzzy pink thing before Rico...

Are you serious? Rico on his own sucked balls, but the Stier was actually a damned good Gear. Chu-Chu doesn't even have any Deathblows!

Citan was my favorite character (since I couldn't be Id). He was inarguably the most versatile character in the game.

Rico sucked nuts, and his gear was a piece of shit. He was the most useless character in the game. I hate him for having a remotely interesting past that you never hear about, sucking ass in general, and being a complete ass about it to boot.

I think Mother Marguerite would kick the living shit out of Rico in a duel.

Citan was my favorite character (since I couldn't be Id). He was inarguably the most versatile character in the game.

I couldn't stand Citan for several reasons.

1) He's absolutely one of the fruitiest-looking characters ever.

2) He has absolutely no flaws whatsoever. Not only is he the strongest, the fastest and has the most HP, but he's also got an answer for everything and never seems to be caught off-guard or at a disadvantage. He was just boring.

3) His Gears were easily the most unispired-looking of the bunch. They were all clunky and drab. His Gears only became marginally interesting once they were armed with swords.

Rico sucked nuts, and his gear was a piece of shit. He was the most useless character in the game. I hate him for having a remotely interesting past that you never hear about, sucking ass in general, and being a complete ass about it to boot.

The only reason Rico sucked was because his accuracy was terrible, which the Stier didn't suffer from at all. It could take a hell of a beating, and dished out a lot more damage than most of the other Gears.

Well, there's not much you can do about that, dude. You can't change your party at that point. How in the name of God your party is sucking with Citan in there is beyond me. He's the best character in the game.

Fei, Citan, and Rico...

You've got 2 members of the Dream Team there, and a random passerby. You can pull it off.

Actually, he's got Elly with him at that point, who's much easier to work with than the Champ.

She melees better too, which is depressing.

Honestly, I never used her for anything but melee. For being the big "spellcaster" in the game, her offensive magic sucked balls.

That was honestly my only complaint about the game, is that the specialized characters weren't any good in their own bailiwick...

No love for Billy? His attacks were decent and he's a good healer. I used him all the time. If I didn't feel like being cheap, he took Citan's place in a Fei, Citan, Emeralda party.

You know, everybody I know doesn't like Emeralda but she freakin powerful.

Actually, I always used Fei, Citan and Billy until I got Emeralda. By that point, you had most of your characters' uber-powerful elemental Deathblows and as such, healing in hand-to-hand battles became pretty much obsolete.

I like her. Billy was rather weak, and didn't fit into my play style very well.
