Why should I be excited for Grind Parties?

[Medura]

Or I just don't suck at them.

I just recently finished a replay of FF9 -- I only had to spend maybe a total of an hour preparing myself for the final boss because I ran through most of Ipsen's Castle.

Very rarely do I ever spend an exorbant amount of time grinding to finish a single player FF. My grind time per FF play through is probably less than three hours total for the entire game. I explore, I find secret equipment, don't use walkthroughs -- that all adds to my overall character level and ability. I don't just sit there in one area until I can brute force my way past the next.

Ever played ff 1 2 3 4 5 tactics, tactics advance, tactics advance 2, 7 x x-2 etc? In for example x, you NEED 300 hours to take on dark aeon, but then you must be very fast. You whom use 1h on 9, il give you 500 to take magus sisters (zanmato "cheat" doesnt work)
