Actually one thing I was really impressed by in DQXI is that the party is basically shuffling in and out of the spotlight in their OP-ness throughout the entire game. Like Serena is great when you get her and then Rab totally outclasses her when he shows up, but then Serena gets some stuff that lets her totally outclass him. Erik is great, then falls off big time when Jade joins, then ends up being amazing again later - it just keeps going and every character besides the Hero is constantly doing a shuffle like this.

Of course it has to end somewhere so by the time you get to endgame there's an obvious "best" party, (Hero/Erik/Veronica/Serena) but it's really neat how everyone has their moments in the sun up until then.
