Barret
is the 35-year-old leader of Avalanche. He leads the time in the quest to
stop the Mako Reactors and save the planet. Although he is devoted to the
team, he often regrets having to leave his young daughter, Marlene, alone
or in care of others. Barret's motives are unclear, but most believe that
Shinra was somehow responsible for the death of his wife. Although he may
not look it, Barret is one of the most versatile characters in the game.
Unlike most, he has weapons for close, and long range combat. Which
enables him to perform well in either rank. You'll want to keep Barret in
the back rank most of the time. This enables him to cause heavy damage
without taking an equal amount in return. Don't load him up with Materia,
because that reduces his hit points and strength. You will want to use him
as a damage magnet later, so keep him strong |
