Barret Wallace
Bio:
Barret is the 35 year old leader of the rebel group known simply as Avalanche. He leads the group in a quest to stop Shinra's mako reactor project and literally save the life of the planet. Although Barret is truely devoted to the cause he often regrets having to leave his young daughter, Marlene, alone in the care of others. Barret's motives are unclear, but he believes that Shinra played a hand in the tragic death of his wife. He spends most of his time in 7th Heaven, a bar run by Tifa Lockheart in Sector 7 of Midgar, either drinking or planning attacks on Shinra from the secret basement of the pub.
Tactical Overview:
Although he may not look it, Barret is one of the most versitile characters in the game. Unlike the others he has weapons for close and long range combat. This enables him to preform well in both the front and back rows. Keeping Barrent in the back row will allow him to dish out massive damage while shielding him from taking damage in return. A thing to avoid is loading Barret up with materia that could lower his health points and attack power as this would undermine a potential role later on in the game. Barret can be used as a meat shield, or in other words used to soak up large amounts of damage that would otherwise go to other party memebers. For that role you will want him to be as strong and meaty, or needing as many health points, as possible.
