About (No Spoilers)
Yang is an expert in the art of Karate and is
also the prince of the Kingdom of Fabul. He is a man of honor and loyalty
and he is a fairly decent fighter so he comes in handy in most situations.
He plays a small role in the game but he’s quite a unique character to use however.
Major Relations
Yang doesn’t have close ties with any other characters
in the game except for his wife and the people of Fabul. Yang is disinterested
in making friends for the most part but since he is full of pride and honour,
he does manage to sacrifice himself for Cecil and the others. While Yang
has few friends, he is still a trustworthy character and he has a reasonable
personality. Basically, Yang joins the quest mainly to back up his word
and he’s mainly doing it to pay back Cecil for helping him out in a tough battle.
Character Developments
(Spoilers)
Yang initially joins up with Cecil and the others
on Mt. Hobbs as he manages to take out Golbez’s minions but then Cecil and friends
decide to help Yang out in defeating the Commander. Thankful for their
help, Yang then agrees to help Cecil and friends on their cause against Golbez
and he is a man full of honour and pride. Yang proves to be a fairly good
character in battle, however he has a very low hit percentage so don’t expect
him to connect regular attacks too often though. Yang plays a small role
in the game but he’s still an important character however.
Review
I think Yang is
a good character to use in battle overall and while he can’t equip much armor,
he’s still a strong fighter and his defense is pretty good. He’s one of
the most serious characters in the game and he plays a small but nevertheless,
important role in the story, even though it seems small. He does manage
to have some special battle commands but they are kind of useless. A man
full of pride and honor, Yang is a decent character but I’m not too fond of
him since he seems a little dull and bland though. It depends on your
preferences.
Weapons/Armor/Accessories
Yang is the only
character in FFIV that can use Claws as weapons and he can equip two Claws at
once to improve his attack power. Another thing to note is that Yang’s
defense is particularly high, even though it may not seem like it and he can’t
equip heavy armor but he can equip light and medium armor for the most part.
Yang is a solid character to have in battle since he does have many different
abilities to use in different situations.
