FFV Order

[Sephiroth31]

In Final Fantasy V does the order of your characters matter like in FF1. What I'm wondering is do the people at the bottom get less when they lvl then the people at the top?

In FFV all the characters level up at the same time and have the same amount of exp and ap, aslong as they dont get ko'ed and then revived after.
so i dont think it matters.

well, it depends on what you are. Faris is at the bottom but she has the most hp because she is a mastered monk. I think it depends on what they are..

It doesnt matter what job they have as they are learning/leveling, there stats are changed by what jobs they master and so on but essentially if none of them are ko'ed at th end of a battle then there exp stats stay the same as they all level up together, but it changes when you loose lenna after defeating exdeath in world 2.

It seems that the characters are placed in this order: Galuf, Bartz/Butz, Lenna/Reina, Faris, Cara/Krile. The characters towards Galuf's end have slightly more HP, and the characters towards Cara/Krile's end have slightly more MP. Their physical stats likely mirror this.

If you change their classes, the status benefits to each class take over which is why you can have a monk and black mage with drastically different HP even though both are at the same level. However, when they are all the SAME class, the original differences are still the same. For example, if they are all monks, their HP will be much greater than if they are all "Bare," but (assuming the same level) there will still remain that original difference where Galuf's end has slightly more HP and Cara/Krile's end has slightly more MP.

Or at least this is true of the PSX version.

Thats all very true but the question was basically do they level up differently depending on what order/row your antagonists are in.
