Acquiring Experience
How do my characters gain spells and abilities through experience?

After defeating an enemy or boss, your party will acquire experience based on the amount of damage they inflicted on a vanquished monster. As your character increases their experience level, they obtain new spells and abilities. Spells and abilities are acquired in a specific order, each new spell and ability powerful than the last, based on the Job the character is assigned to.

This boss will be pretty tough, he might split himself in this battle, in which after you defeat him, you will have to defeat him again. Use all of your strongest attacks and Drain works pretty well in this battle also. Keep your HP above 500 otherwise your party will go down and out. Make quick decisions and keep pounding on him until he's gone.

Avoid using magic in this battle unless you are healing the wounds of your party members because if you attack one of the four images and its not the real Stalker then the party will get countered with Blaze. Also avoid spreading your magic against him as well because even though its a 100% sure bet that you will hit the target, he will counter with Blaze like I said earlier. Having every single one of your party members attack one target, even though the party members might miss the target at least the party won't get countered by his Blaze attack. Now each time you hit him he will switch targets. Your Holy weapons do a great deal amount of damage in this battle as well, even though Stalker has no Holy weakness. Basically in this battle keep pounding on him and avoid using your magic on him and keep your HP up above 400.

This battle will be pretty tough. He will attack pretty hard and make sure that all of your Holy weapons are de-equipped because he will absorb any Holy attacks put on him. Keep your HP above 700(yes he's that strong) and keep pounding on him with physical attacks only. After you defeat him he will try to use the magic Holy, but he doesn't have enough MP and he perishes.

 Battle Strategy
Do not use physical attacks on him otherwise he will cast Return and start the entire battle all over again, only do so if you have been seriously injured by his attacks. I reccommend a Caller for this battle because you can summon Karbunkle and he will automatically put up a WAll for everybody in your group, or you can just cast Wall. Doing so in this battle causes all of his magics to reflect back to him, and all of them will either damage him or do nothing, so basically you've got nothing to lose, but heal your party members with HIPOTIONs and ELIXIRs. Also DO NOT BERSERK HIM! Doing so will make him do critical attacks against the party each doing about 1000 HP of damage and he will quickly knock the Golem away. This makes the battle MUCH tougher than it already is so DO NOT! Also keep a Wall up at all times, and use all of your strongest attacks. When you finish him off he will use FLARE, but since you have a Wall up it will reflect back to him!

The Great Deep
 Battle Strategy
This boss fight will be pretty hard. Each one of them has an apparent weakness and strength and you can tell by their color. Red is strong against fire and weak against ice, Blue is strong against ice but weak against fire, Green is weak against Earth, but I'm not sure about its weakness. So if you have learned AERO3 already go ahead and use it against the Green one. You might want to set up a GOLEM and KARBUNKLE just incase they might get you with a powerful spell. Sure keeping a WALL up might take away from healing your party member at certain times, but you can also reflect their DELTA attack with it and kill one of them. Also note that if you destroy one of them and leave the other two standing the one you destroyed will revive and use the DELTA attack, so just sit back and watch the DELTA attack reflect back and knock one of them out, considering of course you did set up a WALL. Use HOLY against them as well which causes massive damage and your Holy weapons work nice as well, but don't DRAIN them or use the Bloodswd otherwise you will be the one losing HP. Use TITAN and match your spells against their weaknesses and always keep up that WALL! You will have to destroy all three of them before you will actually defeat them because they will always revive back after one round, but keeping up a WALL really helps in this battle and you will need to heal by HIPOTIONs or ELIXIRs.

 Battle Strategy
Here use everything you've got and more. Hit him with your newly acquired spells like HOLY and FLARE and especially METEO. METEO does an absurd amount of damage in this battle, also use LIGHTNING attacks as well in this battle and move quick. Make sure you have a CURE3 spell ready after he uses his Tidalwave attack, which amasses nearly 800 HP of damage to every character, and more than likely two of those will wipe out your party. He will also use his Tail attack, but keeping up a GOLEM will nullify that. So keep all party member's HP above 800 HP and move quick and attack hard and you should eventually win.

Attack regularly, but she will set up a WALL at the beginning of the battle. There are only only three types of magic that will either destroy the WALL barrier or make it obsolete, DISPL, Summon magic, and obviously the very powerful METEO. X-Fight comes in handy in this battle and equipping a Knight with both the Holy Spear and Excalibur sword will cause massive damage, possibly 8,000 HP of damage with every round! Considering you do have X-Fight of course! Keep your party's HP above 1000, otherwise her BIO attack will swoon a party member, if it doesn't it will quickly drain your HP away afterwards.

Apprehendr will cast SAFE up so your physical attacks are basically but down to 60% strength. Your first priority should be setting up a WALL, this way you will be unaffected by his TOAD and CHARM attack, but if you have a Ribbon equipped that should be fine. Attack like normal and avoid elemental spells and also spells like HOLY and FLARE. METEO does incredible damage in this battle as does your powerful summons like Bahamut, Leviathan, Odin, or Syldra. Keep ypur HP up above 600, otherwise his DRAIN attack will get you.

This boss will be very tough. Having a few Dragoons in this battle will help you out a bit. Cast FLOAT on the party immediately, if not his Earth Shaker will deal out over 1000 HP of damage to every party member. When you cast FLOAT he will always de-spell your FLOAT, but no matter what keep casting FLOAT if he does. This will keep him occupied and causes him not to use his Earth Shaker attack because he is just so busy trying to dis-spell your FLOAT. Use all your strongest magic like METEO or LEVIATHAN and have all other characters attack as normal.

This battle is immensely tough. Watch for him to cast L.2 Old on the party so unless your party's levels are not divisible by two this is something to worry about, so make sure you get ESUNA ready after this. Attack him with your most powerful attacks, when he gets down to the 10,000 HP area he will cast Big Guard, which cuts down both physical and magic attacks. Move quickly because he also has this emission attack which causes about 800 HP of damage and his regular physical attack can reach 9999 sometimes! Dragoons help out a lot in this battle, and have the party attack as normal and using spells like Bahamut or METEO.

This boss is fairly easy, he will use Circle in this battle which will take away one party member away from battle, but if you have a RIBBON equipped that won't work. Attack him as normal and afterwards he will change into Jura Avis. Just use Odin to wipe him out, but it might take several tries, otherwise if you do not have Odin attack him as normal and keep your HP up above 700.

This boss is fairly hard. It will use TOAD on any given party member, so if you have the RIBBON equipped you should be fine. His physical attacks are somewhat weak, but when he powers up WATCH OUT! His attacks cause up to over 7000 HP of damage and he can use it two in a row. METEO is a very effective spell in this battle, but youc an use other spells like HOLY or LEVIATHAN. Attack constantly and make little hesistation and you should win this rather long battle.

This battle is super tough. His attacks cause massive damage and he has an absurd amount of HP. Attack him constantly with your Holy weapons like Excalibur or the Holy Lance. Use LEVIATHAN or HOLY to damage him because both will cause a lot of damage to him. He has this MegaFlare attack, while not as strong as Bahamut's it still does close to around 1300 HP of damage to every character! His Tidal Wave attack causes problems as well resulting from about 700 HP of damage to every character. Keeping your HP up to the max is not really suggested but it helps and make sure you have a CURE3 ready at all times and move quickly without hesitation. Watch for his GigaFlare attack, it takes a lot of time for him to fully prepare for it, so take advantage and attack him with everything you've got. If not prepare for 3000 HP of damage to every character!

You must destroy his four barriers first and then take him out. You cannot harm him however when his barriers are up, after you have knocked down the barriers attack him with HOLY and LEVIATHAN, they both do massive damage as they are his weakness as will Holy weapons. Have everyone else attack regularly and keep your HP above 800 just to be safe. After losing him over 40,000 HP, Gilgamesh will come and decide to fight with the party. After Necrofobia hits Gilgamesh with several powerful attacks, Gilgamesh sacrifices himself causing 10000 HP of damage to Necrofobia and killing him.
