Might as well join in on this topic... Tales of Symphonia - great game. Absolutely great. Run through it once, and finished in 32 hours... Spent much of my free time over a 6-day stretch playing...
Starting my second run through, amid playing Paper Mario, Baten Kaitos, and a few other things. First time through I played as Lloyd only. Second time, I'm probably going to swap around more - try it as Kratos for a bit, Genis, Regal... Maybe Raine if I get in the mood to sit back and do nothing but cast healing spells. :) Speaking of healing spells and Raine... End of the game, first time through, I had Raine with two of the amulets that increase TP by 50% (I think - buyable in the snow city). :) Awesome healer. Lloyd, Regal, Genis and Raine were my main party at the end... Lloyd and Regal bashing away at enemies, Genis casting range spells, and Raine healing everyone after even the slightest damage. Made the end really easy. ;)
Every time a party member fell in battle, which was rare with those healing spells - although not impossible with one enemy's instant-kill... - Raine would cast Resurrection. And if Raine got hit, just use a Life Bottle.... I was so cheap using massive amounts of items, when I had to. :P
But anyway... Someone mind giving me a quick overview of the first 16 pages? (Lightning, maybe, since this is your topic, after all?) In case there was something important in there...
Other than Lightning's obsession... :P
