Garth any good?

[John Dogma]

I have yet to try him out, but his skills really don't seem that strong. I mean, Bo Wyatt would probably make of a better support. Do you guys have any experience with Garth? Also, how strong are each of the following characters?:
♥♥♥♥ Dickson
Buckets
Fly Minetti
Geese Thompson
Jack
Crisp Ladaddy

-Fly is among the strongest characters IMO, he has very powerful AOE attacks(including his normal attack) and some status effect skills.

-Jack is essentialy AOE fire mage, he ll find a good place in any oil setup party

-Buckets can equip 2 weapons, meaning he can deal alot of damage very fast, he has no AOE or debuffs so he is more of a boss killer. However he is a joy addict so hes not very usefull in joyless runs.

-Havent tried out D.CK that much but he can buff the whole party with his party time skill which raises almost all stats, and avarage damage of his own. He s a joy addict so I never found him too usefull.

-Garth is indeed alot like Bo, in that all his skills are buffs/debuffs, he can be an alright support character if you need one. But I dont find him that essential.

-Geese havent tried him much, but he deals strong single target damage and can also inflict posion and paralisis, not sure if he ever gets AOE.

-Crisp he sucks, he can inflict bleed but consumes too much sp and misses often

Thanks for reply. I've got a question though, you mentioned something called oil setup, what is it exactly?

[John Dogma]

Thanks, didn't know that. Also, which characters are considered to be the strongest? Except Brad of course. From my experience that would be Carp, Tiger Man and Clint Olympic.
