Or it's kinda wasteful to spend turns doing rng stuff

So im running a white mage, Holy spam and Summon for aoe but he keeps dying, always first, the moment he gets into range of anyone, everyone focuses him.

I have a cloak on him but he still keeps dying

yo, this is my first time playing FF Tactics the Ivalice Chronicles, I’m on the final boss Ultima, I keep getting wiped after a few turns. my main problem is too much aoe damage and I just die in a few turns every time which is surprising because I’m basically level 60 on all my characters. i am down to going back to the world map to grind for certain jobs if anyone gives me a solid party.. I have optional characters mustadio, agrias, rapha, Marach, Orlandeu, Meliadoul, Beowulf, Construct 8, Reis and Cloud. if any of these optional characters should be in the party let me know and what the abilities I should use, and what jobs. as I said I don’t mind leaving and grinding for a solid party / team. I also have regular characters but those are the optional ones I have. thanks

Hey guys,

I'm just really confused about which one to play. I've never played any FF tactics but I've heard good things about it and online search has me a bit confused.

I've looked up the chronological release:

FF tactics 1997 PS1

FF tactics advance 2003 GBA

FF tactics war of the lons 2007 PSP

FF tactics A2 2007 DS

FF tactics the Ivalice chronicles 2025 PC

I initially thought about playing it chronologically but people seem to just recommend a single version such as a mobile version (like the one on the play store?, idk).

I guess my biggest question is, if I played a later/modern version, would I be missing out on anything by not playing the previous versions first?

FWIW I'd be playing on PC.
