Perhaps a bit of an odd fight to have inbetween, like right after Inside Sin. But there's a reason!

For an upcoming boss battle, we're gonna need a TON of HP and Stratoavis is one of the easier Arena bosses that drops HP+ armors. He can in fact be Slowed, though he does have 90% resistance to it. Luckily, with all the monster capturing we've done, we have the items to prepare a Slowtouch + Slowstrike weapon so that we have a 60% chance infliction rate. ;)

After 5 x Jinx, we essentially increase our critrate by 5% which is nice. With Evade & Counter, Strato's regular attacks will never connect. Only Paean Of The Heavens can hit us, and it will always do 93.75% of your max HP so as long as you have enough HP, you will never die. It's nice to have an easy boss once in a while. :)

I redid this fight until I got a HP+50% armor.

In this challenge I am only allowed to use Kimahri during the game. The other party members will either have to KO themselves or try to run away as soon as possible. When Kimahri is not available in the party, the party must follow NSGNSNENNE rules (No Sphere Grid + No Summons + No Escape + No [No Encounters]). While I am allowing Customizing (the challenge would not be possible otherwise), I am placing certain 'limits' on myself. For example, I won't Customize First Strike or Evade & Counter unless it's absolutely mandatory to get through the fight(s). Combined with the No Escape rules, that should make for an interesting run!

Abbreviations:
OSG = Own Sphere Grid
KO = Kimahri Only
NE = No Escape
NNE = No [No Encounters]
