Even though I'm not his their biggest fan, my team is Lightning, Hope, and Fang. I might put some points into Sazh's Healing tree and get rid of the emo kid, but damn, he has such a high Magic Rating its tough on my ol' min/maxing heart.
It's ok once you get the enhances healing staff for Vanille she out cures Hope easily magic or no.
I went with emoboy too but the main reason I chose him was as a RAV, not as a MED.
There is so much role switching in these fights that I find I have to go with the ones who best fit what I'm trying to do while still being very good at the alternate roles they may need to fill.
That, for me, means Hope (even if I intentionally let him die some fights) for his insane magic rating and RAV skills. He's also a very good MED and as SYN.. well.. he doesn't have Haste but he's got Protect and Shell.
I prefer Vanille's SAB to that of Fang's. I prefer Sazh's SYN to that of Hope's but I guess this game is all about compromise and trying to create the best all around group.
Now, this isn't carved in stone. I may come across enemies later that make me rethink everything and conclude that Vanille's better healing is more important than Hope's damage or any number of other reasons to change up members of a party.
The only character I haven't been able to find much use for so far is Snow. He's got some insane HP and is probably the best SEN but he still seems so lacking as COM or RAV that I just can't justify using him when Fang has been able to pull SEN off and is also an amazing COM.
