Cid is the last of the “main characters” to join your party. He joins the party when they reach his hometown, Rocket Town, after their visit to Nibelheim. Cid is a forlorn pilot with dreams of taking his rusted-out rocket ship, the Shinra Rocket No. 26, in to outer space.
Cid stays with the party throughout the entire game, which makes him a reliable addition to your main team, but he does join the team fairly late. That being said, he joins the party with a level equal to your party’s average level plus three, so he should be comparable level-wise to the rest of your team.
Cid’s defensive stats are his highest. His Magic, Spirit and MP stats are all low so he does not make a good magic user or summoner.
Cid can use the following weapons (Spears):
Spear (Initial Weapon)
Slash Lance
Trident
Mast Ax
Partisan
Viper Halberd
Javelin
Grow Lance
Mop
Dragoon Lance
Scimitar
Flayer
Spirit Lance
Venus Gospel
