Bonus fights beaten.
The Boss Rush was Locke, Celes, Relm, Ramza and Edgar. The first 4 are there because learning Soul Breaks and work in the context anyway, Edgar there because, well, why not? I was originally going to use him for Blind Shot on Ultros 1 except Relm w/ Mako's Might covered that well enough...whatever, DRILL!
Wrexsoul, I had both Carbuncle and Celes' SSB, do you really think he stood a chance?
Hidon...I replaced Edgar w/ Auron, Tauntaliated him, watched him explode.
Chadarnook, decided to try some Mage Meta...I said 'some' so my team is:
Tyro: Excalibur (VI), Genji Helm (VI), Aries Gem, Banishing Strike R4, Saint's Cross R2, Dr. Mog's Teachings
-Sentinel Grimoire, as usual. Tyro also fulfills the role of hitting Holy damage all over the place. This means he can freely act regardless of what form Chadarnook is in, and get weakness to build up gauge quickly for re-establishing Sentinel Grimoire.
Yuna: Wizard Staff (VII), Priest's Miter, New Beginning's Sphere, Diaga R2, Curaja R4, Ace Striker
-My Best Medica user still, Diaga is on there to allow Tyro to hurt the Demon Form, and be a 2nd person who can knock him out of Goddess form. I was gambling not having Mako's Might on her, hoping she could get gauge up quick enough AND I didn't have room for Shellga
Terra: Chain Flail (VI), Cat-Ear Hood++, Crystal Orb, Bahamut R2, Firaga R5, Devotion
-If Terra's set seems weird, it's because originally I was going to have her use Diara to set up for Yuna to have Shellga, but elected to go a different direction. between the Chain Flail + Cat-Ear Hood's Synergy, with buffs, she was doing adequate damage despite using Firaga. I'd have used Waterja but apparently he immunes it. On hindsight, should have used Comet since it's slightly stronger but whatever. Bahamut of course was a nice 2 shot nuke whose damage was invisible thanks to how the damage display was happening behind the animation (I caught a glimpse of it and pretty sure there was a 9 in the thousands digit, so about 18k?)
Lulu: Maduin's Horn, Cat-Ear Hood, Terra's Pendant, R4 Firaja, R2 Meteor, Mako's Might
-Focus should work as a supplement for lacking Shellga I felt, and I wanted damage up quickly for her and Terra, hence the usage there. The twinking of Magic here over Terra is because, well, see the point about Terra running Diara initially. Anyway, Lulu's straight forward, not going into details!
Ramza: Platinum Sword, Thief's Bracer++, Vossler's Gauntlet, Magic Breakdown R4, Mana's Paean R3, Knight's Charge
-Ramza there to hit the magic Breakdown condition (on hindsight, could have used Terra for that too, probably better I didn't), Mana's Paean to supplement the lack of Faithga, and he has Shout to fire off Hastega, while also boosting his own damage (which is fairly minor) and Tyro's (which is actually pretty darn good.) He's alternating between all that stuff.
RW: Stardust Ray. It was the first Shellga RW that popped up and I wasn't going to be picky; any of the better ones like Boon, or Mighty Guard would be nice, sure, but I had Hastega and Heavy Regen as is, so it wasn't a big deal.
I had two S/Ls. First one was because I didn't quite get fight down, hit him in Goddess form, everyone but Terra was asleep, and yeah, things kind of went downhill. Second was a result of bad RNG and him smacking me before mitigation could be appropriately applied, etc.
Winning run? Lost only one medal on damage. Things went over pretty well, though I am kicking myself for not holding off on Magitek Missiles a bit, to let Mana's Paean and Focus be re-establishing, making it only do 19k instead of something significantly higher! Ah well, it all worked out.
Also he dropped a Major Fire orb, I can't complain!
