Looking at your set up, and being 100% honest with you here.. I'd stick to my guns currently at this point. The majority of the classes you receive from the water crystal won't meet their potential until a little later into the story. For example, you will come to a point in the story here very soon where you can obtain 4 sets of dragoon armor with weapons. Until then you rely on dated gear not really meant for the class, and buying spears can be pricey. Until that story point I wouldn't recommend changing into Dragoon. Dark Knight has a town you can access also at a later point that will fully gear them to help you prepare for another dungeon. Which btw, isn't 100% necessary to use a Dark Knight but makes it easier on you.
However if you wish to swap out your classes, then that is totally your call. You can beat this game with any party set up you wish, and while sparkly new classes may seem like a good idea.. In some cases it isn't. You'll want to grind a bit to bring your job levels up otherwise those classes are absolutely mediocre. For example you might find your Luneth lacking because his job level is low and his hit count is low, he may not hit as hard, and he can't take hits well. Imagine that for every job class. If you do change, stop and grind a bit. But as it stands if it isn't broken, don't fix it.
What about the mages? i feel that they arent healing as well as they could and their MP could use a boost. i know the devout, sage, summoner and magus are all good but i dont have them yet so im uncertain if the weirder magic classes will do better or if its best to have one white mage and one black mage.
There are guides out there that tell you how to level your job classes up. I'll just give you the quick and dirty on it. Return to Ur (the starting village) and proceed to get into fights with the goblins in the area. Have everyone guard 8 times. On turn 9 have everyone but whoever you want to have attack guard. Seeing as you're using a knight, have the knight attack as his defend is a 3 second animation. 3 seconds isn't much at first, but do this over the course of 20 battles and you waste a minute. You'll be doing this awhile to grind some classes.. those minutes add up. You will effectively gain 1 job level and gain points towards the next. Doing this ensures you'll gain 1 job every battle no mater what happens. Use this technique to bring your knight up to snuff a bit. You can do the same for your red mages to gain some more MP for casting.
Your Red mages however are a different story. Their stat growth puts them in the middle ground. If you had a white mage, you'd be doing curas for 700+ on the entire party with them in their mid to late 30s. Black mages would be dealing more as well. Red mages are middle of the pack and for that trade off they can use both sets of spells up to a point fairly well. And can deal some physical damage. And honestly, magic is your call but I don't recommend it. You can attain damage cap with physical strikes without worrying about any limit to what you can cast. However if you want a caster with something unique you can always go summoner as they can group cast for 9,999 to all targets as they multi target by default and lose no damage.
Over all it's a fun game.. Mainly because I like Dark Knight as a class.. But it still is no Final Fantasy VI.
You posted this same message in a seperate thread of your own. No need to bomb another with it. He's not impossible to defeat. I've done it at level 76 myself. Others have did it under level 50. You can play an RPG many ways. Low level challenges, start to finish killing only what you encounter, Single character playthroughs, grinding until you overwhelm everything. But that thing isn't all that hard.
It takes hours to grind to level 76 though. Hours and hours and hours and hours. Overkill hours. More than any other FF ive ever played. Im not saying that's a good or bad thing, Im just saying.
Yes I can see you are a 1 trick pony here. I've put more hours into any save on FFX than I've ever put in III. I can reach a base character level of 99 and a job max level of 99 of up to 5 jobs in less than 50 hours played. Grinding out everything is NOT necessary and judging the game for your personal playstyle isn't the way to go.
Im not trying to max everything out. The iron giant does 4'500 damage with one hit. I woouldn tgo near it unless you have well over level 70. What i mean by grindiest , is its the grindiest as in, not progressing just cruising around just to level up, grindy. Like most FF's ive played , I can progress, level up, by the time I get to the end Im pretty much up to the right levels. But with this one, ive had to do a lot more work. Which is fine, im just saying, its the grindiest FF ive played.
