Espers

    I'd make a poll, but I can't remember all of their names off the top of my head v_v.

    I only summoned espers twice- once because you have to in order to advance in the game, and the other because I wanted to see what they actually did. So I can't say they were especially useful to me. I did think they were cool-looking and the fights were a nice challenge, especially against Zodiark.

    My favorite is probably Ultima, for the lame reason that she's all gold and pretty.

    I enjoyed the process of finding and obtaining them all. But they were a waste of MP that was best spent on spells and quickenings.

    The only one I found to be really useful was Zalera, or at least I think that was his name. It was the one you got in the Barheim Passage. Instant death to all enemies was a nice benefit. But I never used it because any enemies you killed with him dropped no items. Screw that. I need money.

    They were also quite useful in some of the earlier marks. I use Belias on the Ghost (or whatever he was; the first one you fight in the Garamsythe Waterway). He always cast doom, and at that point, I couldn't cure it. So I'd just bring out Belias and have the summoner hang back so that the Ghost always targeted Belias, who was immune to the status.

    ^That's an interesting strategy. I always just waited until Basch joined the party and threw phoenix downs as needed.

    Anyways. I wish I'd bothered to summon Zalera, because insta-death can be pretty useful when leveling up. Maybe next time.

    He's powerful. Just don't ever use him when you need the money, cause you won't get it.

    Ultima is inside the Great Crystal in Giruvegan. She's a major pain in the ass to find. Your best bet would be to get a map of the crystal off gamefaqs and just follow it. I couldn't begin to explain how to get there.

    And if you can kill Zodiark, I think you should be okay with Ultima. I don't remember what level I was, but I think I fought them one after the other.

    Yeah, if you killed Zodiark, he was much harder than Ultima was. Theo nlytrick to Ultima is that she has a constantly changing battle condition (HP Drain, MP Drain, Half Speed, etc). She has no cheap moves that can instant kill every member of your party ><.

    Although, despite being a royal pain to beat, Zodiark was kinda cute, XD.

    But seriously, the hardest part of Ultima is getting to her, in that the Great Crystal is a pain to navigate and that the enemies in that section are brutal.
