Doesnt really matter, all the characters level up together even if youre not using them. You will have to switch between them at points so its nice to have them leveled up but you can just switch materia between them anyway, helps level it up faster than just having dedicated materia.

Enemy skill is the greatest skill atm. Make sure you learn Matra magic as its pretty handy since it hits all enemies and is fairly low level. You learn it from one of the robot guys out of midgar whom you can also steal a good Barret weapon from.

Make sure to learn Beta from Midgar Zolom. It might take a bit of grinding before hand but its super handy to have an attack that does higher damage than all your summons atm. Just make sure you have good defense against fire on Barret and equip him with Enemy Skill, you can either just run or kill the Zolom after.

Also the real thing about leveling is just limit breaks. Tier 1 are learned when you kill a certain number of enemies, and tier 2 is learned when you use tier 1 a certain number of times.

Dont bother leveling Cait Sith

Dont get me wrong, I did have fun with it at the time, but it was a bit of a chore by the end. It was mostly the draw system that I didnt like. To me the materia system was the biggest thing since powdered milk, so when 8 came out I was wondering how they could top it, and to me it felt like they shit all over what they couldve done. It just left a bad taste in my mouth, I liked it for what it was but I would never go back and replay it
