Godlike:
1 Jenna Angel (DDS) - Initial ITE overkill damage. Twice.
2 Profound Darkness (PS4) - Lasts and lasts.
3 Emelious de Pamela (G3) - Speed/damage/durability combo. Plus mult-part boss is somewhat interesting.
4 Dhaos (ToP) - Awesome damage, loses to crazy Cecelia fans, though.
5 Avalon (LoL2) - Formchaining and damage-halving, but still not reall durable compared to some Godlikes.
6 Fereydoon (WA5) - Solid Godlike boss.
7 Wren (PS4) - PC with status immunities and awesome damage. Ranged to avoid those pesky FE counters (not that you see any in Godlike...)
8 Luther Lansfeld (SO3) - A decent limit boss in Godlike, feels kind of interchangle with the rest of 7-9
9 Magus (CT) - Feels pretty interchangable with the rest of 7-9
10 Lulu (FFX) - Evasion hype! Too slow for Godlike, but she has a lot of good things going for her. Could be convinced to rate her higher.
11 Jecht (FFX) - No.
Heavy:
1 Zelpher (SO3) - Damage/healing/status/speed... what else do you need?
2 Kary (FF1) - Durability. Not happy with Fire resistance though. Can still manage.
3 Arngrim (VPs) - Backloaded ITE 2HKO damage sells me. Not a lot of speed, but hard to 2HKO.
4 Hiro (Lunar:EBC) - Damage damage damage! One dimensional but good.
5 Hugo (S3) - More dimensions, but not great with fire resistance.
6 Nina (BoF4) - Lasts and lasts... that:s it?
7 Donald Duck (KH) - Fears status, no damage, but great otherwise.
8 Id (XG) - My respect for XG bosses just isn't there.
9 Shizel (ToE) - But it's better than my ToE respect.
10 Suicune (PKMN) - PKMN weaknesses put it here.
11 Fogel (OB) - Decent OB duelist...
12 Geddoe (S3) - Too elementally reliant, but good for a durable-mage build.
13 Edea Kramer (FF8) - Does she win matches any way but with ID?
Middle:
1 Bowman Jean (SO2) - SO2 equips, speedy, high-damaging - the whole Bowman package works for me.
2 Jude Maverick (WA4) - Speed + Assault Buster fixes all his problems. Even with his horrible resistance to magic, he still spoils mages due to speed.
3 Meru (LoD) - Likes being able to start as a Dragoon.
4 Nelis (S5) - Pretty awesome for a Suikoden character.
5 Ulf (G3) - Shadow Warrior for awesome slugging.
6 Poco (AtLC) - Awesome healer type with tricks.
7 Fiora (FE7) - Solid FE middle.
8 Mua (S3) - Just Solid really.
9 Mitsuru Kirijo (P3) - Damaging but P3 elemental weakness
10 Charizard (PKMN) - Damaging but PKMN elemental weakness
11 Harle (CC) - Solid but CC elemental weakness
12 Nergal (FE7) - Not Solid, but counters!
13 Frog (CT) - Ouch.
Light:
1 Rude (FF7) - I wish he had gotten a new rankable form in -any- of the FF7 compilation, but he's good enough for this Light pool.
2 Anri (SF1) - Magic damage. Good enough for Light.
3 Melody Vilente (WA3) - Beats those who rely on chip damage... which is more of Light than I had initially realized.
4 Pikachu (PKMN) - Pikachu respect? Not really, just that the rest of this pool is pretty bad.
5 Randi (SoM) - The fact that Randi with no Mana Blade is this high should say something.
6 LeBlanc (FFX-2) - Has some status tricks?
7 Sten (BoF2) - Pretty one dimensional but doesn't fail -too badly- in Light.
8 Palmer (FF7) - Palmer is normally my example of a crappy Light...
9 Karn (BoF1) - But Karn's worse!
10 Tai Ho (Suikos) - Tai Ho Too
11 Genis Sage (ToS) - Genis is terrible by the standard views but I'm not entirely sure where I stand on ARPG mages at the moment. Could change.
12 Goofy (KH) - Genis is happy Goofy is here to keep him off the bottom of the list.... wow he's impressively Puny.
-Djinn
