Re: The strongest mage to ever usable in suikoden games.
Id go with
S1 = Crowley
S2 = Luc
S3 = Luc/Sasarai
S4 = Ted
S5 = Zerase
So since he was the best in two games
Luc = Strongest mage ever.

I'm the same way.Chaco wrote:I sometimes won't use a character just because I don't like them, even if they are uber strong. In Suikoden 2 I was so mad how many times I was forced to use Freed Y.That's funny you don't like his personality.
I don't care about stats and all that. .

I hated Salome in S3...I got annoyed when I was forced to use him.

Except that Freed Y had neither the stats nor the personality to make him worthwhile using.RangerDeon wrote:I'm the same way.Chaco wrote:I sometimes won't use a character just because I don't like them, even if they are uber strong.

Re: The strongest mage to ever usable in suikoden games.
Iv gotta say that Zerase is one of the strongest mages in the Suiko Universe. She was my favorite mage user.

Re: The strongest mage to ever usable in suikoden games.
I gotta vote Zerase. Give her a Magic Absorb rune, and she can pretty much rain a continuous stream of galactic debris falling on your enemy's head! I don't even know if the Star Rune is a True Rune, but she sure used it like one.
Luc was pretty impressive, overall, and I do like that you can kind of see his powers grow over the course of the games (sucks in S1, above average in S2, and scary enough for main baddie role in S3), but he didn't have the smarts to use a long range weapon like Zerase & Ted. Mages cannot take a punch, and robes are NOT armor, so front row is basically suicide for them.
MP runs out eventually, and it's pointless to bust out The Shredding against some friggin' Axe Bunnies, so it never hurts to be able to deal some physical damage, too.
Besides, if your conjured blade-like cyclone can't take your foes down in one hit, they can basically just walk up push you over. At least in the back row they have to fight through your friends to get to you. Your friend who have swords.

Suikoden 1
I dont know if I would call her strongest but Cleo was really good, she wasnt the best mage, but more she had better stats then most mages in terms of Defense and Attack. I could put her in the front row and still destroy the enemy's.
Crowley is hands down the best mage in Suikoden 1, but I dont like using him since I dont like him.
Suikoden 5
Zerase, as many have said is the strongest. The only thing is she died way to fast, her HOP and Defense in my opinon were way to low. I like having a mage I don't have to protect/heal the entire round. However her Magic powers are unmatched.
Suikoden 2-3
Luc is cool, I like his character and abilities. In Suikoden 1 he sucked but in 2-3 he was much better. Again, the problem with him is his low defense and bad weapon choice.
Suikoden 4
Ted was the best mage in Suikoden 4. Not just because of his Soul Eater, but since there was no backrow in Suikoden 4 I had to use a mage with good defense to.

Re: The strongest mage to ever usable in suikoden games.
Ted was decent but he couldint hold a candle to McDohl in S2. McDohl had access to better runes to fill the 2nd and third slot. I think Jowy wins the hybrid contest...the black sword rune was insane at high levels (Fight with Garudo)
The shield rune was pathetic compared to the sword in sheer magic power and usefullness.
Zerase is the best mage in the series so far...with
Star/Magic Absorb/Flowing
She can almost single handedly make your party unbeatable.
