DFFOO GL Dimensions End Transcendence T1 Reckoning (Pecil LD, Gabranth LD, Cloud LDBT, 90 turns)
10This is quite the challenge! I HIGHLY recommend that you plan your Reckoning team in advance before attempting Crucible stages. Split your Reckoning team between the 2 parties you take with you to Crucible.
Overview
This party gets around all of the mechanics across the two stages. Gabranth shuts down wave 1 because he can counter-debuff to keep the Lufenia orb healthy AND he can instant break when the Affects use Aqua Power.
On wave 2 Pecil overheals and can easily burst heal the massive hp damage taken from the flame aura. Cloud is there mainly to launch and remove the flame aura. He also gives synergy via his BT since I don't have Pecil BT.
The biggest challenge in reckoning is navigating around the Flame aura because it hurts so much AND it heals the bosses a lot. You want to position yourself so that you can quickly dispel the flame aura each time it is up at 79/49/29%. Check out my detailed guide below and the video timestamp to see how I worked around it.
The idea is to save launch moves and Pecils healing moved on wave 1 so that you can spam those on wave 2.

10:48 Wave 1
I use Rude call right at the start to trigger Diabolos blessing for the entire fight.
It's easy with Gabranth. Try to conserve your launch abilities (in this case Clouds finishing touch) as well as healing abilities (eg from Pecil) as you need them more for wave 2.
For Gabranth use his S2/EX if you need to break the affects when they use Aqua Power. Otherwise use his other skills. You should have enough turns to break both with Gabranth since they self delay when they use Aqua Power. If not try to paralyze one with Cloud.
Alternative strategies: you can also use Gladio to tank the Demonsplash attack, or use gravity based attacks to shave the 60l brave. Gabranth is good here mainly because he can instant break and debuff the Lufenia orb together.
22:18 Wave 2 phase 1 (100-79%)
The start of the fight is pretty easy. Take the time to set up debuffs and ensure Pecil AA is up and running.
When you are close to 79%, use Keiss LD CA.
Keep an eye out for the recast attack. Ideally you want to hit 79% before they get a full recast bar because you don't want the recast attack to overlap with the flame aura.
Try to damage them as evenly as possible. You want both to hit 79% at almost the same time.
25:28 Wave 2 phase 2 (79-49%)
At 79% they will get flame aura which is BAD. It causes a whopping 50% max hp poison damage, heals them for 80k hp AND saps your brave EACH time you get a turn. When both have the flame aura , immediately launch. My party setup allows everyone an option to launch. Cloud can use Finishing Touch, Pecil has Ramza LD CA and Gabranth has Keiss CA.
Right after dispeling the flame aura your next priority is to heal back to full to keep the Lufenia orb frozen. Also they will be unleashing their recast attack at around this time so try to heal up before that happens. I also recommend using one of Gabranths AA right before the first recast attack hits you- it significantly reduces the hp damage taken.
If you managed to tank the recast attack and dispel the flames then you're set for Phase 2.
Again try to damage them as evenly as possible so that you hit 49% on both mobs the same time.
When you are close to 49% have Cloud using his LD. You want him to start phase 3 in burst mode with a free skill from his prior LD use.
Also make sure Pecils AA is active going into phase 3, refresh it if you have to. As much as possible try to hit Phase 3 with Keiss Brave Leak debuff still active.
31:44 Wave 2 Phase 3 (49-0%)
When both bosses hit 49% immediately go BT mode with Cloud.
I used the following rotation (32:21)
FT - LD launch offtarget - FT - CS launch offtarget - FT - BT finisher ON THE OFFTARGET. This is crucial. The goal is to try to get the offtarget from the last Finishing Touch to hit 29% from Clouds BT finisher.
After Clouds BT mode, the boss that hit 29% will get flame aura again, BUT it will be launchable so just have your next character hit it to dispel the flames. This leaves just one more boss that will get flame aura at 29%, which is easily manageable with Cloud's FT.
The danger though is that at this point they are also very close to a full recast bar. Again, you don't want their recast attack to overlap with the flame aura. So at this point if you need the extra turns to dispel the last flame aura and heal before the recast attack, just pop summon. (36:53 I popped summon)
Once you dispel the last flame aura at 29% hp and heal back to full, the rest of the fight is cake. Pecils overheals will ensure the recast attack never kills you.
