Your party in Final Fantasy II consists of three permanent members (Firion, Maria, Guy) and a rotating fourth guest character who joins and leaves throughout the story. While you can't directly control the guest character's equipment or magic, their presence is often vital for specific plot points or combat encounters. Pay attention to their strengths and weaknesses. For your main trio, consider their roles: Firion is a versatile fighter, Maria often excels with magic, and Guy is a strong physical attacker. Experiment with weapon types and magic schools to create a balanced team. The game doesn't have a formal 'formation' system, but character placement in the menu can sometimes influence targeting priority in older versions, though this is less pronounced in remasters.
