Then have Locke attack, Edgar use Chainsaw or Drill, Sabin AuraBolt, Cyan use SwdTech 1, and Gau ????. One attack from Ramuh and one Chainsaw attack from Edgar should be enough to finish him.
Guardian	N/A	N/A	N/A	No	RUN!!! At this time nothing there is nothing you can do to hurt it.

Number 128	3276	810	None	No	Concentrate on the body, if the body dies the whole thing dies. Have Locke attack, Edgar use Drill, Sabin AuraBolt, Cyan use SwdTech 1, and Gau ????.
Right Crane	2300	447	Lightning, Water	No	Use lightning spells on the right crane if you have them but don't use them on the left crane (they heal it). Have Setzer either attack or use Slot, Locke attack, Edgar use Drill, Sabin AuraBolt, Cyan use SwdTech 1, and Gau
Left Crane	1800	447	Water	No
Ninja	1650	130	Lightning, Pearl	No	If you have any Espers equipped that attack, use them. Otherwise have Cyan do SwdTech 1, Edgar use Drill, Setzer use slot or attack, Sabin AuraBolt, Mog do the Dusk Requiem dance, Gau ????, and the others attack.
FlameEater	8400	480	Ice	No	Use Shiva or Maduin if you have them equipped. Also use Ice Rods and/or Ice spells if you have them. Have Locke and Terra attack, and Strago us his Aqua Rake lore.
Ultros part 3	22000	750	Fire, Lightning	Yes	Use your attacking Espers and any attack spells you might have (except water-based attacks like Bismark; Ice spells are ok though), otherwise just attack. When he gets weak Relm will join your party. Have he Sketch and you'll win.
Ultros	17000		Fire, Lightning	Yes	Use your most powerful Fire and Bolt spells (fire 2 gets a lot of damage) on Ultros. Take out Ultros first and then go for Chupon. Fire spell heal Chupon so don't use them anymore, use Ice spells instead. If you don't have any or have run out of mps do the following: Have Mog dance Wind Song, Cyan use SwdTech 1 or 4, Strago use Aqua Rake, Edgar use Chainsaw, Gau ????, Relm attack or Sketch, Sabin Pummel, Setzer use slot, and the rest attack. When you win Chupon will Sneeze your party away.
Chupon	10000	4000	Ice, Water	Yes
Air Force	8000	750	Lightning, Water	No	Concentrate on the main thing. If it launches a Speck, attack it (don't use spells). Just use your most powerful attack spells (Ice, Fire, and Bolt), your attack Espers Maduin, Shiva, Ramuh, etc.), or if neither of those options are possible use your best attacks (Sabin's AuraBolt, Edgar's Drill, etc.).
Gigantos	6000	1120	Poison	Yes	This dude hits hard so have one person use Cure 2 all the time. Have Shadow throw shuriken and have Edgar use Drill, Sabin AuraBolt, Cyan use SwdTech 1 or 4, Gau ????, Setzer use Slot/GP Rain, Mog do the Earth Blues Dance, Relm Sketch, and the rest attack. Also use your most powerful attack spells and Espers. Also it may be a good idea to use the Phantom Esper the first thing (this will make you harder to hit for a little while).
AtmaWeapon	24000	5000	None	Yes	Use your most powerful attacks: Fire, Ice, and Bolt spells; attack Espers; regular attacks; and special attacks (Sabin's AuraBolt, Edgar's Drill, Mog's Earth Blues dance, Shadow's Shuriken throwing, etc.). It shoud be dead in no time. Cure as needed of course. Another method to use would be to drain it's mps using Rasp (it'll die when it's mps are gone).
Nerapa	2800	280	Ice, Lightning, Pearl	No	He has a wall spell on him so attack spells will just bounce back. If you have a wall spell on one of your characters, cast the attack spells on them. Use your most powerful Espers and attacks.
Phunbaba	28000	10000	Poison	Yes	Don't use lightning attacks (Bolt spells, Ramuh, etc.), it heals him. Use Phantom Esper to make you invisible and Sraphim to cure if needed. Have Celes use spells and have Sabin use the Suplex blitz. He'll run away when his hps get low.
Top Left Tentacle	4000	500	None	No	Don't use Ice spells on the bottom left tentacle or fire spells on the bottom right one or bolt spells on the top left one. Have Edgar use Drill, Celes attack, and Sabin attack the bottom right one and then use Fire Dance when it's dead. If you have attack Espers use them. Also use spells that correspond to the weakness of a tentacle (example: use fire on the bottom left one).
Bot Left Tentacle	6000	700	Fire
Top Right Tentacle	5000	600	None
Bot Right Tentacle	7000	800	Ice, Water
Presenter	9845	1600	Fire	Yes (on the shell only)	Have Celes attack, Sabin AuraBolt, Setzer attack or Slot/GP Rain, and Edgar use Chainsaw or Drill. Also use Fire spells if you have them. Just cast Doom on the head to make it a quick fight.
Dullahan	23450	1721	Fire	Yes	Use fire spells and the Esper Ifrit if you have it equipped. Have Celes Runic, Sabin Suplex, Setzer attack or Slot/GP Rain, and Edgar use Chainsaw or Drill.
Storm Drgn	42000	1250	Lightning	Yes	Use Ramuh and Bolt spells. If a person doesn't have bolt spells have them use there best attacks. If you went back and added Cyan to your party, have him do either SwdTech 1 or 4. Also cure whenever needed.
Allo Ver	8000	8000	Fire, Pearl	Yes (X-Zone only)	The only hard part about this creature is that he can use Doom, which instantly kills its target. Just keep attacking or casting fire spells until it dies.
SrBehemoth (1st)	19000	1600	Fire, Poison	Yes	Use fire spells plus have Edgar use Chainsaw, Setzer use Slot/GP Rain, Celes attack, Sabin attack, and Cyan use SwdTech 1 or 4. After defeating the 1st one, a second one will attack from behind. Defeat this one the same way, or you can use revivify to kill it instantly.
SrBehemoth (2nd)	19000	9999	Fire, Pearl	Yes (X-Zone only)
Chadarnook Woman	56000	9400	Fire	Yes (X-Zone only)	Have Edgar use Drill and everyone else use either fire spells or their best attacks.
Chadarnook Demon	30000	7600	Fire, Pearl	Yes (X-Zone only)
Phunbaba:The Return	26000	10000	Poison	Yes	You can defeat it basically the same way as before. Have Edgar use Drill, Sabin Suplex, Celes Runic, Cyan use SwdTech 1 or 4, Gau ????, Shadow throw Shuriken, and Setzer attack or Slot/GP Rain. After a while, it'll use BabaBreath to blow a couple of your characters away. Terra will join you to finish it off. (After Terra joins, Phunbaba's hps and mps reset). Have Terra attack.
Doom Gaze	55555	38000	Fire, Pearl	Yes (DON'T use X-Zone or you won't get Bahamut)	Whenever you happen to run into it, just beat the hell out of it with your best attacks. Use life spells and Fenix Down to bring back dead companions if you feel like it. It'll run from you rather quickly but it can't regenerate itself between fights, so next time you fight it it'll have the same amount of hps as it did when it ran. Eventually you'll kill it. Killing it will get you the Esper Bahamut.
Red Dragon	30000	1780	Ice, Water	Yes	Use Ice spells if you have them. Have Terra attack, Edgar use Drill or Chainsaw, Sabin attack, Celes attack or Runic, Cyan use SwdTech 1 or 4, Gau ????, Setzer attack or Slot/GP Rain, Strago use the Aqua Rake lore, and Relm attack.
Ice Dragon	24400	9000	Fire	Yes	Use fire spells or if you don't have them use your best attacks.
Tritoch	30000	50000	Fire	Yes	Use fire spells or best attacks to thaw it out.
Umaro	17200	6990	Fire, Poison	No	Use fire spells or best attacks. Don't use Tritoch, Shiva, or Ice spells because it'll heal him.
White Dragon	18500	1200	None	Yes	Use Ultima and Flare if you have them. Have Gogo Mimic or cast spells, and everyone else use their most powerful spells and Espers.
MagiMaster	50000	50000	Varies	No	METHOD 1: Don't bother using elemental spells (fire,ice,bolt,etc) because the MagiMaster constantly changes what spells heal and hurt him. Using Beserk on him stops him from doing this . Instead use spells like Ultima and Flare, plus Espers like Bahamut and Maduin. Also make ABSOLUTELY SURE AT LEAST ONE CHARACTER HAS LIFE 3 ON THEM because when MagiMaster dies he casts Ultima on your party and unless you have a helluva lot of hps, your toast. METHOD 2: Cast Beserk on him and use the Phantom Esper on your party. Now continually cast Rasp on him (or Osmose if your MPS get really low). When his 50000 mps are gone he'll try to cast Ultima but since he has no mps he'll fail and die. NOTE: It takes a long time to beat him this way but once you cast Bserk on him and used Phantom on you, he can't hurt you at all. METHOD 3: Equip everyone with Wall Rings and let MagiMaster kill himself. You still need Life3 or a lot of HPS with this method. METHOD 4: Cast Bserk on him, then use the Phantom Esper on your party as in METHOD 2. Now keep scanning him as you attack. When his HPS reach a few thousand use the Palidor Esper. Hopefully, the first character down will kil him. He'll cast Ultima which'll kill the one character, but the ones in the air will live.
Left/ Larry	10000	2000	Fire	Yes	Use Ultima and Bahamut if you have them. If not just use your best attacks and spells, taking note what spells heal which stooge.
Top/ Curley	15000	2000	Ice, Water	Yes (X-Zone only)
Right/ Moe	12000	2000	None	Yes (X-Zone only)
WrexSoul	23066	5066	Ice	No	For a quick battle use X-Zone (it'll suck in the SoulSavers and you'll win the fight). If you don't have X-Zone then don't worry about the SoulSavers. You first have to attack one of your characters until they die. This will cause WrexSoul to appear in a form you can kill. Once he has appeared bring your dead character back to life and then use Ultima, Bahamut, and Ice spells, or your best attacks. If he disappears, repeat the process only kill a different character this time.
Master Pug	22000	1200	Varies	Yes	Use Ultima, Flare, and Bahamut. Have Edgar use Drill or Chainsaw, Sabin use Bum Rush, Celes use Runic, Cyan use SwdTech 7, Gau ????, Setzer attack or Slot/GP Rain, and everyone else attack.
Blue Dragon	26900	3800	Lightning	Yes	Use your best spells (Ultima, Meteor, Flare, etc), your best Espers (Bahamut, etc.), and attacks (Sabin's Bum Rush, Edgar's Drill, etc.). Don't cast Doom (without Vanish first, break, or Haste/Slow spells because it'll use Rippler to make the spells affect you instead.
KatanaSoul	37620	7400	Poison	Yes	Use Ultima for major damage. Otherwise use your best attacks Espers, spells, regular, and special).
Hidon	25000	12500	Fire, Pearl, Earth	Yes (X-Zone only)	The easiest way to kill Hidon is to bring it to life (i.e. use a life spell, revivify, etc.). If you don't want to do that then use Pearl on Hidon if you have it. Don't worry about the Hidonites. Also use Ultima, Meteor, Flare, Bahamut, Terrato, etc. plus special attacks.
Dirt Drgn	28500	16500	Wind, Water	Yes	If you have some sort of Gaia equipment on a lot of the dragon's spells will heal you. Ultima works quite will. Use it if you have it, if not use your other more powerful attacks. Casting Float on your party will also be a big help.
Atma	55000	19000	None	Yes	Ultima works quite well. Use it along with the best attacks of the members of your party. Another way to do it is to try depleting its MPS by using spells like rasp (it'll die when its MPS are drained completely).
Gold Dragon	32400	4000	Water	Yes	Don't use lightning based spells (Bolt, Ramuh, etc.). DO use Ultima, Bahamut, Flare, Meteor, etc. Using your best attacks should be safe as long as they don't involve lightning.
Inferno	8000	770	Ice	No	Striker is the claw on the right and Rough is the left one. Don't worry about the claws, concentrate on Inferno. If you use Ultima, Meteor, Bahamut, or some other spell/Esper that attacks all enemies then you don't have to worry about anything. Use your best attacks.
Rough	30800	9700	Lightning
Striker	11000	2600	Fire
Skull Drgn	32800	1999	Fire, Pearl	Yes	Use fire spells and pearl as the basis of your attack. Ultima, Flare, Bahamut, etc. work good too. Cure 3 also works good.
Doom	63000	4800	Pearl	Yes	Use Ultima for major damage. Also use your other major attacks. Once he uses his force field don't use spells that'll bounce off a wall (elementals, flare, etc.).
Goddess	44000	19000	None	Yes	Use your more powerful spells (Ultima, Meteor, etc.) and attacks (Sabin's Bum Rush, etc.)
Guardian again	60000	5200	Lightning, Water	No	Use lightning spells along with your best attacks (spells or otherwise). If you have Sabin have him do the Bum Rush blitz for some good damage.
Poltrgeist	58000	18900	Poison	No	Again, use your best attacks (Ultima, Flare, Bum Rush, etc). Ice 3 seems to work pretty good, too.
Final Fight Lvl 1	30000	10000	Fire	No	Here you have to destroy the creatures head and both hands. Use your best attacks and it'll go down in no time. The best way to do it is have 3 characters attack (Ultima works good) and the 4th one heal.
	27000	10000	Water
	33000	10000	Wind
Final Fight Lvl 2	28000	10000	Poison	No	There are 4 things to attack here. The same strategy as above should work.
	41000	10000	Earth
	30000	10000	Ice
	24000	10000	Bolt
Final Fight Lvl 3	9999	10000	None - Girl absorbs all elements	No	Only two things to attack here. If you're using attacks that only hit a single target, concentrate them on the angel head (the one on the left) because it'll heal both targets. When you get the right target down low it'll get mad and start using major damage attacks like Merton. Have your Cure spells ready.
Final Fight Lvl 3	40000	10000	None	No
Kefka: The End	63001	60000	None	No	Be ready to cure when he uses Fallen One (which reduces all your characters to 1 hp). Even regular/special attacks work pretty good on him (that's all I used and the fight went pretty quick). Make this fight go even quicker by using the Quick spell. Another tactic that makes the fight go quicker is to equip everyone with Flame Shlds and use Merton.
