So I've got my first character to 99 (Zack,) but I don't think I'm actually understanding the way stats and abilities matter in this game, and the game itself didn't really explain things much beyond "here's how to set things up" and "good luck!"
Can I mess up building a character?
What should I be aiming for or doing to set characters up?
How does "damage" actually *work*?
Why wasn't Alexander considered enough of a FF staple summon to be in this game? (Poor Hope.)
Do abilities matter online? If so, is it different than playing solo?
Should I be building a specific team for Versus play?
