Final Fantasy Megathread

No idea, I've never beaten the game.

That Barthandelus fight was pretty crazy. I tried it once and spent over 20 minutes trying to beat him, only getting him down to about 1/3 health. Then he cast death on lightning so I switched to relentless assault in a desperate attempt to beat him, and just got killed.

Second time around I switched up my paradigms - I used Smart Bomb to afflict him and buff me, delta attack to stagger, relentless assault to work his stagger meter up to 500%, then aggression until the meter ran out.

Ended up getting 5 stars the second time around.

Vamp, I read that the last stage of the Crystarium doesn't open up until you beat the game, is that right?

Yep.

That Barthandelus fight was pretty crazy.

Agreed. That was by far one of the most epic boss fights I've ever had in any game. The scale of it felt awesome (is in creating awe, not 'thrilling').
