As I recall, his base stat was only 3 of points behind Lulu's. Not useless in the slightest at that point.

I used him after I had beat the game about 4 times and wanted to really mess around with the parties. I made Kimahri the hard hitter, Rikku the thief, and Lulu the healer/caster. It was a very interesting game with the set up...Pretty fun too.

Kimahri was a useless character to me,( other than killing himself lolz)
I trained him got his status up but he still sucked

Through my experience, Kimahri was the middle character, as in he wasn't exactly as good as anyone in magic, speed, strength, etc. but that he was better than others, worse than others kind of thing. Average if it was up to someone else to call it.

He wasn't really a worthless character in battle, I got him to do 9999 damage third in the party, and he's always in my starting battle lineup anyway. ;D

He was pretty frikkin useless to me. His section of the sphere grid just kinda sucked, only way to get him any good was to teleport him to another section...and that just seemed like a waste of a good teleport sphere.

I thought he was a pretty neat and useful character. I liked his Blue Magic things, and I usually let him learn a bit of everything, including part of Rikku's grid, Auron's, and Tidus'. He wasn't that bad with Black Magic either...used my spare spheres for both Kimahri and Rikku, the Level 3 spells.

He becomes useful when you aquire the Dragoon Lance and Equip him with the Genji Armlet, before this however the only unique thing about him is Lancet and even that isn't terribly useful, I think if the Piercing attribute was exclusively his before you can customise weapons, people would hold him in much higher regard

I just used him as fodder. id use him in battle so he'd get exp and soak up any damage the boss did early in the fight. other than that i didnt use him. He just didnt stand out. Also wasnt there a thread like this a few weeks ago??

No character is really useless if you train them. I plan on maxing out all the stats of all my characters. I'm gonna use Kimahri in the battle against Nemesis, so he can learn Nova.

Man, if you stick with that plan i'll bow to you, that'll take alot of dedication.

And you could just let Kimahri learn Nova from Omega weapon then use it against Nova

Ya know...i've never found blue mages useful...ever. Although aside from Quina's Frog Drop, Kimahri does learn some of the best blue magic spells. I think it's just that his initial sphere grid is so mediocre compared to everyone else's (aside from Rikku), that he's really not needed, and it's a pain to make him good.
