I changed Ashe from secondary healer to De-Buffer/Nuker and Balthier from secondary tank(he still plays a lil of that role in regular battles but in Boss battles he will be be nuker, haven’t tried him in this role yet.)
basch- 75 sword, shield(ensanguined =) and heavy armor
fran – mystic armor, bow, healer, warmage

I like to hang back (after I steal) and heal and treat Status effects, since I don’t have a full set of status gambits yet. As Penelo, though, I can’t resist getting my hands dirty when I have the chance. I haven’t really had to employ any unique strategies yet since I’m pretty well over-leveled, have gotten lucky drops (Kotetsu off the Werewolves in Giza), and take the time to steal from rare game (Loxley Bow from Cultsworn Lich; Gladius from Lindbur Wolf).
Mainly Vaan, Basch and Ashe.
Vaan Knight Heavy armor and great sword
Fran Archer/Healer/Mage Mix of Heavy and mystic armor and Bow plus assasin arrows
Ashe Mage Knight Heavy armor with Aegis shield sword combo
Spare Team
Balither Gunner Light armor Guns plus wyrmshot
Penelo Slasher Light Armor Ninja blades or Daggers
Basche Lancer/Mage knight Heavy armor Lance
I use telekensis to handle flying though I had Vaan equip a bow before it.
Greatest Gambit ever that I have Balither and Fran equip Self:Libra at the bottom of the list that way I can see traps and enemy data but they wont do it unless we are out of combat and no healing needs to be done.
Fran hangs back out of range usually unless if a back attack like has happened a few times while Ashe and Vaan go in. Vaan hacks and steals, Ashe handles status, magic and attack while a backup healer. Fran is the dedicated healer with cujra heals everyone for the cost of one. The aegis shield on Ashe usually protects her from magic so aganist magic heavy oppenets she is ideal. I have had little problem with this and the Gambit setup only Status and instant Death are the major weak points Since if the person with the status heal gambit goes down or infected with said gambit while the others are as well like confouse it wreaks havoc. But since I got the sash no prob just the Death but I can’t fix that beyond Phoenix down any ally gambit.
Team 1
Vaan – does good damage with a katana and he’s pretty fast, too. Party leader.
Basch – tank.
Penelo – healing, though she does a fair amount of damage.
Team 2
Balthier – whatever I feel like…he usually just attacks. I favor melee.
Fran – healing/magic.
Ashe – Fulfills my "tank" role, one could say. She’s party leader and I always make sure she’s got a nice shield.
