Just cleared it with Refia , Cecil , Ramza , CoD , Fencer , and CoD friend unit . after 5 tries lolThe CoD ' s were very helpful with OmniVeil , Barrage , and overall defense . Having the twin tanks proved to be very useful , and having twin healers , just the same . I tried with Kain previously and failed a few times so I inserted Fencer and had her start off each round with Manastrike hits and reduces DEF . I don ' t have a Full Breaker , so this was helpful and without lowering DEF each round . good luck . I was lucky to have nobody KOd until the second to last round . Oh well , just thankful to have cleared it . I only had Fencer Manastrike and the CoD ' s Barrage . That was it for offense . Everyone else Buffed , Debuffed , and Healed . Battle lasted well over 20 minutes , and I don ' t think you can bum rush this one unless you are completely OP ' d . Good luck everyone ! Great challenge and much more reasonable than Maxwell . ps a dualwielding CoD IMO is the way to go . Especially the friend unit I brought along with a Rising Sun and Thorned Mace hitting 20 k a turn with Manastrike going first
