    Four red mages is ridiculously fun. It's just four fighters with slightly lower attack and really low HP but they can all cast haste on themselves and become absolute buzzsaws.
    The only snag is depending on which version you're playing, Chaos is a nightmare because they can't outheal their constant AOE spam - Chaos seems to have more HP in each release.

      Yea, I was playing the pixel remaster and was coasting all the way through, I always fought never ran... and being a veteran of FF since it's very first release I already know how to handle... but when I got to Chaos it was such a BS slog. I was like okay... can grind up some more just to whip the boss but I said forget it. I locked everyone HP at max and full bore nailed chaos. Yes... I cheated... on the last boss. But to run up and go I don't know maybe 100 turns? I was like, is this fight going to end? I just got tired of the heals, item sp restores, resurrection loop. And OMG is the constant hasting Chaos did on himself get stupid even with all buffs on he would one hit for 999 damage. I don't mind difficult... but that is just cheese for the stupidity. And trying to slow/stop him to cancel his buffs just missed so often I got tired of it. Nuke hit for a paltry 400 damage. I have a fond memory of the game... but I really don't think I will play it ever again now.

    A fun fact about Red Mages in the Dawn of Souls release is that their magic level can increase to 6 despite them not being able to learn any level 6 spells. I learned this when doing a single character playthrough of said version. It was the first time I reached the level cap in any Final Fantasy game, and I reached max HP/MP as well.

    Red Mages are my favorite class in the series. Those spell lists look pretty threadbare at endgame. When I run multiple Red Mages I tend to have the issue of most of them having overly-similar spellbooks because I tend to think of the same spells as good or not worthwhile on each level, always feeling on a Black or White Mage that I have to add something as filler just to fill out the book even if I'll never use it while on the Red Mage I wind up with about 2 must-haves per level, then 2 good spells I want.

    Cast haste on your main attacker
    With the attack buffed over two rounds on one person, going Giants glove, temper x3, then going haste, temper x3, sets you up for attack, healing rod, and both healing helms. You out pace Chaos.

    When you have a source of black magic and melee attacker Temper and Haste are you best bet against bosses. Haste double the number of attacks the you character can deal and temper increases attack power by 14 and stacks. The giants gloves when used as an item casts Saber on the User which increases attack by 16 and accuracy by 10 potentially giving you another attack.

    You should try and 100% Final Fantasy 1 Dawn of Souls with 1 Red Wizard, that way you can get Exit and get the Masamune and Exit out, then you can get the Ultima Weapon after breathing Death gaze (or whatever its name is on floor 40 of the final optional dungeon), then Haste and Temper up and crush Chaos! You don't have Curaja even as a Red Wizard, but Curaga and some grinding on the Dragon Zombies in the Castle of Ordeals for Megalixirs will help out tremendously for Chaos, not really the boss in floor 40 of the final optional dungeon since once you Blink up 2 times, you can heal up and cast either Protect or Protera a bunch, and then he goes from dealing 700+ damage, to like less than 50 damage, and you have such good magic defense, that it won't really land Dispel and instant death magic on you to one shot you, especially when you're at lv99.

    Like...Red Mages are the most powerful character in the game. :P
    They don't excel in any field, but because they are so flexible, adaptable, and supportive they are ridiculously powerful.
    Nothing aside bosses will survive each one casting with fir 2, and with 1 round of each casting Invis 2 almost nothing in the game can physically hit them.
    With each casting a different elemental 'guard' spell (fire,lit, ice and death) each character basically becomes unkillable with magic.
    and with each casting temper, and haste they all become bad-ass melee'ers after two rounds, or 2 without 1 round.
    all you really miss out on is some high-end gear, but only equipping them, you can still use all items magical use trait.

      4 white mages is 100% doable, did it for a charity run years ago. Black mages would be the hardest, honestly. White mages can damn near make themselves unkillable

      But at lv 99 the HOLY spell against Chaos is PURE CRAP and it will NEVER outheal his 9999 Healing that why 4x White mages CAN be impossible if you can't damage Chaos FASTER then he HEALS itself 4 even at lv 99.
      4x Red mages is still the easiest one due to NOT having physical hit damage be worthless.
