That would be Lucca. I'm talking about battle effectiveness in the end game.

Magus had high speed (high all stats, really) and strong magic.

I kind of want to say Frog is the worst... but I don't remember why. Just popped in my head.

They're both kind of unimpressive relatively speaking but I never have Lucca in my party at that point in the game and I'm not the Chrono guru I used to be so my comments are largely irrelevant.

Even just the sheer COOL factor from using someone who was such a threat to you just a while ago makes Magus the best.

So long as we can all agree that Crono, Marle, Robo and Ayla are very good battle-wise.

Lucca is the worst character.

People question this?

Volt Bite, then Cube Toss are just about the only moves you'll ever need in almost every boss fight.

And then you have haste to go with Cube Toss.

Marle is super unimpressive outside Lifeline and has zero utility in an endgame setup. Lucca and the other character that isn't Frog have ridiculous Magic power combined with spells that let them be a threat without duals or triples. If I had to pick, I'd rank Robo and Crono top, Ayla following, then Lucca, the spoilers character, Marle, and Frog.

Lucca has a great final weapon and has some of the most powerful attacks in the game. Much more useful than Marle or Frog

Maybe I just remember Marle totally wrong then. I was much more positive regarding the other three.

endgame? Crono/Ayla/Lucca/Robo seem like the most useful. Magus is like a lesser Crono with no dual techs. Marle has Haste but no good attacking spells. Frog is like a red mage that gets outclasses at the end of the game. he's probably the worst.

I always was fascinated by CT's character balance. everyone seems to have a completely different opinion.

I'm pretty sure Lucca actually has a better magic stat than Magus

She does. Magus' utility comes in filling missing element slots in.

I see that my CT topic has been supported by nothing but the best.

I used Crono, Marle and Magus. I always use the characters I like best. They were pretty useful, too.

The only two options for best party are Crono/Ayla/Robo and Crono/Ayla/Frog.

In most cases, you don't really need anyone else.

If I recall, Magus's spells actually have pretty low power. They start out pretty strong, but all his Shadow spells suck by the end of the game. I may be getting mixed up with something else though

Only party you ever need is Crono Ayla Robo

Lucca did have a higher magic stat than Magus, but most of her spells are fire-based, her ultimate weapon does random damage, and she is SLOW. Maybe it's my fault for not giving her speed tabs, but whatever.

In my experience the Wondershot averaged a comparable amount of damage to what the other attackers were causing, making it very useful.

Crono and Robo are total locks IMO. You need healing, Luminaire is super dumb for damage, Life is nice to have, and they hit hard as hell. Afterwards it depends. If you can swing physical damage Ayla is the way to go for sure, she's just incredible in all fronts except utility - otherwise Lucca is the better choice because she brings a nice, always useful buff to the table, insanely strong techs, and elemental variety.

I used Lucca in my team against Lavos. I gave her the accessory that reduces MP consumption by 3/4 and had her use Flare repeatedly. She's certainly no slouch, due to her impressive offensive magic.
