Ultimate Armor Build?

[Rossi1911]

I have bought empty 4-slotted armors from Wantz for each of my character. And I have a hard time deciding which abilities to be added into the armors.

I want the armors to work great against Dark Aeons, Penance, Nemesis, and Monster Arena Creation.

Are break hp limit or mp limit necessary?

Is Ribbon worth it? Are there any other abilities you can recommend?

Cheers.

Break HP Limit means 99,999 HP instead of 9999. I'd call this worth it. Less stuff kills you instantly.
Break MP Limit means 9999 instead of 999. I'd call this worthless. You have One MP Cost whenever needed.

Ribbon, immunity to ailments. I, personally, don't know how ailment happy the Aeons, Penance, or Arena can get, but this might be a good idea.

After that, Auto skills. Phoenix, Haste, and Protect... Revival, turn rate, survival.

You want to start with the Monster Arena first because a) they're easier b) you're gonna eat a 99,999 Energy Ray the minute you see Dark Valefor. You can probably defeat some of the first creations right now without any special items. I would get Break HP Limit, Auto Phoenix, Auto Shell, Auto Protect. Auto Haste is also pretty good because you don't really need 3 Auto Phoenix.

You'll also want another set of armor to deal with status effects. I think Automed, Berserkproof, Confuseproof, and Deathproof covers all of it.

Break HP limit is worthless. You need to get 99,999 HP to make it even somewhat worth it but that takes far to long and other, more important stats suffer.

Auto-Phoenix/Haste/Protect/Def+20%/Stoneproof or even better Ribbon is all you need on your armor. Your main party only need 2 different armors throughout the entire game

Dont bother with any kind of Shell. Thanks to the broken damage formula on spells magic is a joke in post game. Get 255 mag def you dont need to worry about damage.

For the start just make armor with Auto Phoenix and Auto-Haste. Thats all you need till you hit the later Superbosses
