Does Terry ever become useful?

[BrackishLake]

I'm still early in the game, he's at about level 6, and... yeah. I don't yet see his usefulness in combat. For now I replaced him with Nern.

[Oh Dae-su]

He has a somewhat useful healing ability/

Terr Bear, He's the best, He can hit with the force of Gravity you know.

[Cairn.L]

I replaced him with Birdie.
Birdie aoe healing ability much better imo.

[Ed K]

Use verbal bash, its a good skill.

[Toasty49]

Russian Roulette!

But seriously, the Lord of Hints cannot steer you wrong.

[Musty Dusty Crawlman]

He's the best character in the game.

His face-slide headbutt attack is cute enough for him to stay in my party! I do miss my items, though...

I'm not sure if your saying that in jest Dingaldangle because the weak character becoming the best in a jrpg is common enough that I am going to level him knowing full well he might never get decent. Because I can see you subverting that expectation. Hopefully he will turn out to be a magic karp and not Dan Hibiki

[Musty Dusty Crawlman]

The power of the Hintz is strong with you Zoots

[BrackishLake]

Now you guys have me second-guessing my decision to replace him haha. Hmm...

I absolutely died of laughter the first time I saw his attack animation and the zero damage it dealt. It still cracks me up hahaha

It seems like their are places were you can grind. Just don't give him the lions share of the exp to be on the safe side. I'm going to level him but I'm not going to gamble on it because it could go either way.

Good call. Could go either way this early after release when no one really knows for sure haha. Do we know yet whether characters gain small amounts of experience even when they aren't in the active party? I haven't been bothered to test that yet.

One interesting thing to take note of is just how he words Terry's Character description. "A lonley man who puts his heart and soul into his hints. He'd be a real asset if he wasn't so weak." Maybe that is a hint in itself that if he wasn't so low level he would be useful of not over powerd. Or TingleTangle Found the right rube to take the bait.
