FF6 - Brave New World

First, Celes gets Ice 3 and Bolt 3, and is thus able to hit the same elemental weaknesses that Terra can. She'll do less damage, but that's largely because players tend to build Celes for vigor and Terra for magic.

Lol, I didn't really consider Bolt 3 because I pretty much learned it walking the last stretch to Kefka, and thought "Wow, that would have really helped going through a dungeon filled with Ahriman and machines, like the one I just went through." XD. With only one of the three main elements, I considered her to be lacking slightly in elemental properties, although she did have Holy to make up for it.

I actually went half and half with Celes, and found her to be somewhat weaker than Terra, even though stat-wise, Celes had a small leg up. Although if I had given Celes more magic power from the get-go, that probably wouldn't have been the case as much, but Celes is also missing good endgame healing abilities.

Well, I sort of designed her to be one of the game's four primary healers (Locke, Setzer, and Relm are the other three). she's meant to function as a Red Mage/Sage-type character, with good white *and* black magic, but less on the physical offense unless you sacrifice magic boosts to build her that way.

Now that I think about it more, I can see how taking away the healing would be a mistake...although the speed reduction could still possibly be welcome, and play off her lower stats compared to Celes as well. Still, it's not as though Terra unbalances the game to a high degree, since the hack's really well-balanced to begin with. I just feel that she unbalanced it more than Sabin did (and I'd probably say the same for Celes, not that I'm saying she needs a nerf now too)
