HP attacks are so slow that even if you guard you&#039;ll be able to dodge out of the way before they hit you anyways, unless it&#039;s certain HP attacks such as Octoslash that even with its slow start is a long attack, so if the defending character doesn&#039;t move backwards and jump or has omnidash and dashes in the opposite direction, he&#039;s losing hp.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Here are a few characters I got extremely good with.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Frionel.  Easily the best close range character in the game, but worthless in the air and you don&#039;t want to attack if your opponent is mid range.  The only time you ever want to be in the air is to use Fire, hope they deflect, and then use Shield to counter your own projectile, the only HP attack you should ever equip unless you don&#039;t have Double Trouble A, B, and C.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Warrior of Light.  Everything links into everything so he&#039;s fairly good, but close range character.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Cloud.  Close or mid range character, overpowered.  With no equip fights the Omnislash v5 combo will usually break the opponent and take a chunk of HP in a single attack if they screw up at the beginning.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Squall.  Sucks at getting an HP hit in, but brave attacks rape.  Combo a brave attack spell to HP attack to have a better chance.  If you want to be cheap, it&#039;s impossible to break Revolver Drive and you can spam it to no end if the person isn&#039;t using Zidane because Squall will get out of it before someone can get in to attack after Revolver Drive is over.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Cecil.  Either air or ground worked best depending on your form.  Easy to get HP attacks and even link brave attacks to HP attacks.  Not as bad as Frionel, but a fairly poor character.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Butz.  Long range, close range, mid range, this character is the best when it comes to brave attacks.  Too bad you&#039;ll have a hard time ever getting an HP hit in unless you&#039;re close to the ground with the Slidehazzard/Soul Eater combo.  Holy/Flare combo, Flood, and Paladin Force will never get a good player.  Wind Shear has to be a joke.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;Golbez, Zidane, and Sephiroth.  Very cheap characters.  Talk about major balancing issues.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;So those are the characters I used most often.  Zidane is easily the most overpowered character in the game.  The game has MAJOR balancing issues.  So until me and my friend really got into it, we didn&#039;t notice these.  Even with the balancing issues we still played over 100 hours though.  The game is addicting even with the major flaws that it has.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I think Square Enix really needs to first fix the character balancing issues and defend issue if they even think of creating a new game.  For example.  When defending, how about defend only last an instant.  You hit defend and it lasts half a second and can&#039;t be brought up again for atleast another two seconds.  That way if someone throws defend out there just hoping the person is going to do a brave attack at the time, it penalizes them and there&#039;s a full two seconds before they can defend again.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;With extra characters in the game though and the current balancing issues, I don&#039;t really think a second game would be any good.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I loved the game at first, but when me and my bestfriend really got into it we started hating it.</p><p>I mean the game allows you to throw R out there to guard at almost any time in hopes that someone will use a brave attack.
