It's the Aster Protoflorian thing at (I assume) the end of Chapter 5.

The first thing I also do is the Libra deal to expose it's stats and weaknesses.

I've tried going straight for the stagger, doing a round as Commando/Ravager then Ravager/Ravager to try and fill up the bar then switching back to Commando when possible to keep the bar from falling too rapidly but the thing does too much damage and I have to switch into a Medic mode and usually the stagger meter resets by the time I come out of that.

I've also tried buffing up by having Hope go Synergist for the first couple rounds too, but that doesn't seem to help much at all.

Use supersolider to get your buffs up and build the chain gauge. At the start use Libra like you've been doing. Once your buffs are up (If you have a whateverscope that you can use before battle that'd be a good idea then you can skip supersolider.)


Switch to Slash and Burn, once you have it around 25% staggered switch to Dualcaster to really up the chain gauge. Use War & Peace when necessary to keep your chain going and heal. Continue using potions, so you can stay in dualcaster as long as possible. Once staggered switch back to Slash and Burn. Lighting will launch from their. If you need healing while its staggered go back to War and Peace. Repeat till its dead.


(Spoiler Warning)

Wait till you get a bit father and face the Cocoon Fal-Cie, twenty minute battle just for him to wipe you instantly haha.
