General informations Roles

Fighting system in Final Fantasy XIII is based on two major elements: roles and paradigms.Role are some kind of professions that will give our characters abilities to fulfill their tasks inthe group. Every character can develop all six roles. The best tactic is to start with three major one that are different to each character, then (when they will be on a good level) youcan start to give some points to other. You can learn basic role for each character from thistable:

Character Role 1 Role 2 Role 3

Lightning Commando Medic Ravager

Snow Sentinel Ravager Commando

Sazh Ravager Commando Synergist

Vanille Saboteur Medic Ravager

Fang Sentinel Saboteur Commando

Hope Medic Synergist Ravager

Commando Commando is very important in every fight. Their attacks will not charge your chain gauge bar, they are necessary to stabilize it. Every Commando attack will slow the bar and they will allow Ravagers to stagger your enemies. The second thing is that Commando attacks (the only exception is Sazh) will throw your enemies into the air. As a matter of fact, monsters will not be able to attack. If you will beplaying well, then your opponents will be flying for the whole fight. In addition these attackswill make stagger to last longer.

A good thing is to learn something abort teams with two Commandos. They can attack two targets in one moment so they can immobilize two enemies. This is a very powerful strategywhen you are trying to surprise your opponents.



Sentinel This profession was unnecessary in Final Fantasy XII. Now it is very important in all difficult fights. It is a typical tank whose role is to draw attention of all enemies and resist theirattacks. He don’t have many abilities that can hurt your enemies (except of one, very weak) but he has some very powerful defensive spells. Sometimes only Sentinel is able to resist some most powerful attacks.

The best tactic is to use him against bosses and some larger groups of enemies when you willhave to survive the first part of the fight. It is good to use him while healing and buffing therest of the team. As a matter of using Challenge ability, chain gauge will stay on a high level.

Medic As a healing character Medic is the best in every battle. To successfully support your team,the best option is to use two that kind of roles in one paradigm. But healing is not the onlythings that this caster can do – resurrection and Dispell spell will be handy later on.

Ravager Ravager is a role with two main tasks: dealing damage and charging the chain gauge. He hasvery powerful attacks, but you have to use them wisely. First thing is to use the Libra ability as often as possible. As a matter of fact, you will learn something about your enemyresistances and immunities.

Ravager has also a second task – to charge enemy chain gauge. A major disadvantage ofthis ability is fact, that the bar is charging very quickly, but it can also get empty after fewseconds. To slow this process it is good to attack with one Commando character. In fact, sometimes you will be able to manage with three Ravagers.

Synergist Similar to Sentinel, Synergist is not very handy at the beginning of the game but later on itwill be necessary. Abilities like Haste, Shell and Protect will give you very powerful buffs in the battle. The main disadvantage is that buffing the hole team can take you many rounds.The best option is to start at the beginning of the fight. If your enemy is weak a good idea isto use Synergist only for two rounds – everyone will get haste buff and the battle will beeasier.

Saboteur The last, but not the least important class is Saboteur. As you can already know from the name, he's main role is to weaken the enemy. His main abilities is to lower your enemyresistances and stuff like that. Unfortunately, some enemies are very resistant to his debuffs and, as a matter of fact, the role of Saboteur could be limited is some battles. A very specialability is Death ( Vanille can learn it at the end of the game). It is good to invest some pointshere, because it will help you to defeat Adamantoise – one of the most dangerous monsters in the game.



Paradigms

Paradigms are the combination of roles that can be used in Final Fantasy XIII. The hole battle is about how to properly change paradigms (abilities are not so important at this time). In one fight, you can use only six paradigms that were chosen before the battle, and you have toremember that changing the team mate will reset your choice. You have many possiblecombination of paradigms and thats why, you have only some most important described below.

Commando + Ravager + Ravager The main paradigm that is the best at the beginning of almost all battles. Commando will slow the chain gauge and Ravagers will do the rest. This combination is also very usefulafter staggering your enemy (Commando can throw you enemy into the air)

Ravager + Ravager + Ravager The best option is to use this tactic after Commando first attack. Chain gauge will be stable now and three Ravagers should be able to stagger your enemy with easy. After they will fulfill their task return to Commando (but not when your target is very weak against magicattacks).

Medic + Medic + Sentinel This is the best healing paradigm. Two healers will heal every wound in one round with easyand Sentinel with the Challenge ability will slow the chain gauge. It is good to rememberthat tank will lower damage done to all party members – remember about this when fighting with last boss.

Saboteur + Synergist + Sentinel This is a very good combination at the beginning of almost every boss fight. It will provide your team with some buffs and, at the same time, it can also debuff your enemy. Try not touse it when your enemy has very powerful AOE. You will be forced to change to healingparadigm very often and that will cost you time.

Saboteur/Synergist + Medic + Sentinel It is safer version of the previous paradigm. You will do not have to worry about yourteammates health. Sentinel and Medic will handle will damage taken andSynergist/Saboteur will do the rest.



Item upgrades

In Final Fantasy you will be able to improve your weapons. Each item has its own experiencebar that can be charged with some components found during the game. Important thing isthat you can upgrade your weapon only in special places called save points (you have to pickthe option: Upgrade).

These components can be divided in two groups: organic and mechanic. First one will giveyou less experience points but they will raise your multiply value and the others are good inrising EXP. The most important thing is to balance them in a proper way – use your organic components one after another and when the multiply value will get to the max (X3) then youcan start upgrading your weapon with some mechanic parts. But when you will use them,multiply value will decrease (so you have to use as many of them at one time). In additionyou can can only one level at one improvement process. Maybe I will give you some examplenow:

You've got Lionheart lvl 1 with 0/4000 EXP. You don't know anything about requirements to the third level but, for sure, they are higher. So the best option is to use components worth8000 EXP. As a matter of fact you will get Lionheart lvl 2 4000/4200 (or something close to this) EXP. You will be sure that the multiply value was used properly and that you didn't lose your valuable points.

As always while fighting with stronger enemy – the best option is to start with Libra. You will learn that your enemy is weak against water attacks. Use your ability called Water. A very good idea is to use some Synergist defensive spell and stagger the enemy with Ravagers. But remember to attack only when you have 100% HP, because you opponent has a verypowerful attack that will take 90% of your health. After the fight use these shiny plants to get upstairs [1].
