Most overpowered RPG character ever? Options

[Carnivorous Sheep]

Basically it goes like this. You state the name of the character, the RPG he or she is from, along with an explanation of why this character is overpowered. However there are rules.

1) It only counts if the character itself is overpowered. So good equip or spell setups or whatever that can turn ANYONE into overpowered characters don't count.

2) It has to be a playable character. Not a guest, temporary NPC partner, or enemy.

To start with, here's my entry:

Raquel Applegate (Wild Arms 4):
She's basically the warrior of the group. She uses a large two handed sword that can sometimes turn into a spear (?) and as an added bonus, her attacks ignore defense. Her first Force Ability allows her to have two turns at once, and can even stack numerous times if you've got enough Force saved up. In fact, this is the recommended strategy to use against most bosses. Later on as she levels up, her critical hit rate will skyrocket, and her dodge and counterattack rates will also skyrocket. Since her counterattack damage, crit chance, and crit damage goes up even further when countering, it is possible to defeat a number of bosses in a single hit if she countercrits them. This isn't even counting equipment later that can make her even stronger.

Edit: Forgot to mention that doing a Raquel solo run is considered easier than playing the game normally.

Shouldn't this be in other games?

[Tyros Arcainix]

Is this playable characters only?

EDIT: ok

Would you please provide an explanation of what makes them overpowered?

I have no love for such Snipers...

Will and Rebecca are only average and Louise comes as a pre-promote meaning she's an auto-out.


In my opinion I'd say... Ike and Tibarn from FE10 due to their huge stats and abilities to half the defense of enemies, regain HP by attacking and rendering some enemy attacks useless.

From other games... my friends say in Super Smash Bros. Brawl... that Ganondorf and Ike are hugely overpowered...

In my opinion in Drakengard (1 and 2), Legna and Angelus are just plain scary. So much destruction within single attacks...

Ummm... I'll go into more details later.

Leon from Luminous Arc. His first skill (Charge, which increases his attack dramatically) combined with his final skill (Hound Claw, an attack that does around 2X the damage his normal attack would do) allows him to 2-hit kill the final boss with 999 damage per hit. Plus you can use him online combined with, say, 50 healing potions and you're unstoppable. Although he needs to be around level 45 to be absolute ownage (which is the avg. level needed to beat the final boss with a full party).

[Durango]

*has the best combo*

Minato from Persona 3. Using the fusion skill Armageddon at the start of each battle + victory (something). Basically Arma does 9999 damage (no enemy 'cept the bosses have that much HP) at the cost of all MP and then victory (something...) restores all MP and HP after battle.

Cheapness, eh?

Since you have to set that combination of Personas yourself, wouldn't that technically go towards spell setups?

I'll say Cid from Final Fantasy Tactics

He has all the skills from three different story-character unique classes, and his special job his some of the best stat growth in the game if I remember right. And even though it's equipment, I'm gonna say it since its his default- his starting weapon gives him haste.

You have a good point... you do have to set them... it's still an overpowered combo... *nods*

Hm... Tales of Symphonia - Zelos Wilder. He's got really smooth combos that are impossible to get out of.

Emil from ToS: Dawn of the New World - his sky combos are insane *nods*. Once they hit the ground, he just knocks them back up, with or without skills.

Citan from Xenogears. way too overpowered dude specially after he gets THE SWORD.

Anyone in FFVI with the Soul of Thamasa(don't know the SNES name), Celestriad(Economizer in the SNES version), Quick, Ultima, and sufficient magic power or Cyan with the Master Scroll(Offering in SNES), Genji Glove, two kazekiris, and alot of strength. Especially the latter.

If I recall correctly, only the advance-version unique bosses have enough HP to survive the near 160,000 damage that the maximum possible 16 hits can do. And I forgot to add Quick, too. Double that, and I don't think even Omega Weapon can take that punishment.

That's a setup, White. It's void in this thread.

[DavidSchinkel]

In that case, T.G. Cid. Even without auto-haste, he's just that OP.
