Cloud (FFVII)

Cloud is a pretty strong lightning damage dealer with very high attack and a lot of strong offensive abilities with decent range. He can increase his AP gain through his new buff, and reduce AP consumption through TMR ability, giving him quite the endurance so he can use skills quite often. He also has 15% resistance to slash and missile at base, and has Double Resist from Nightblade to make him a sturdy unit.

All of his unique soldier skills are pretty good. His offensive skills have decent range, not expensive, and useful traits. His most notable skill is a new buff, Soldiers Pride, which is an area buff that gives attack increase and the ability to gain AP when getting a critical hit, and it has 3 charges. If combined with his TMR buff, he might not have any issues with AP if you go with a crit-focused build on him.

His Ranger sub job comes with a variety of ranged attacks. While some of them don't have high multiplier, Cloud's high base attack can make them hit quite hard. Ranger Lore and Nightblade Mastery can be a deadly passive combo, making him hit further and rarely ever missing because of the high accuracy boost.

His Nightblade sub job, unfortunately, doesn't have Drain Rush, but all of its skills are still pretty good and potentially viable in many situations, especially Double Resist for more tankyness, and Concentration, which works well with Braver.

His lvl 19 EX upgrade is very strong since it makes Rapid Chain into a guaranteed critical attack, ensuring that he gains some AP if you use Soldier's Pride buff.
