Argh! I'm having the worst time thinking of what character I want to recruit to my party! I want to have the most well rounded party when I'm fighting. I don't want to have too many symbologists or too many offensive characters. What should I do? |

Easy wins have never been my style

Hey Pericci! Well Ashton is more of a typical in your face style fighter, so because of that it will depend on your current party. If you are using Rena for example that means you would have both Claude & Dias (and possibly Bowman/Chisato as well). If you have all of those Asthon might become redundant. Although, if you are doing Claude's story and don't plan on getting Chisato then I'd definitely get Ashton to have the additional melee support. |

But I also want to get Chisato, so Opera would be the way to go? |

If you have 3 of Claude, Dias, Bowman & Chisato then I find Ashton isn't really needed. So yeah, in that case try Opera instead. That's my opinion obviously, it may differ for others. |

Okay! Heh, I just got this game on Friday, but I played the First Departure! Which I loved! I'm going to get Welch because I want to see if there's going to be any references to the first one. |

Opera is better. She can learn Healing Star which removes the need for a healer like Rena. TIP: You need to use machinery to learn the Healing Star KM. |

I completely agree. I don't even use Rena; I thought she took too long to cast Faeire Light. And to make the Healing Star... learning thing (Was it the White Upgrade?), it doesn't require much. I've made over ten of them. Too bad other characters can't use them. |

I already have Ashton, but judging from the above comments, that may not have been the best choice, oh well, maybe next time... Ashton's... slightly useful, I guess... |

I just saw one of Ashton's most hilarious PAs. And guess who it's thanks to? Welch! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=leLF_x0Grj4 |

He's a horrible singer. And Welch was wrong: the song was not catchy. Can Welch even learn the two music talents? |

Ashton seems... amusing. I saw that he finds barrels fascinating or something. |

I think Ashton is the better choice. He doesn't have Healing Star, and you won't get much better than Claude, but Ashton seems to be a bit more of a likeable character. Besides, Rena can just use Faerie Light to accomplish the same task. |
