Battle Strategies
Draw Alexander at the beginning of the battle. Edea will inflict powerful spells on your party, so protect them with Shell and Protect. Carbuncle will do little good since Edea will cast Reflect, then bounce spells off herself. Take her down with Limit Breaks and GF's such as Leviathan and Diablos. Also use Meltdown which cannot be reflected.
