This is where things get tricky again. My plan is simple: hope Rikku gets a turn and throw a Petrify Grenade on everything except the Blue Elements, which get hit by Blaster Mine like in the Thunder Plains.

Unfortunately the new lizard enemy here always acts before Rikku, one-shots her from full HP, and on top of that inflicts Petrification 30% of the time. I spent a while killing Iron Giants to get HP+10% armor, which mostly lets her survive the HP damage. I just have to hope she doesn't get turned to stone. HP+15% armor would be better, but it's an even rarer drop and I can buy that exact armor at the Macalania Travel Agency.

Dealing with the Elements is also problematic. Damage roll variance means sometimes they survive a Grenade after Blaster Mine, but sometimes they don't. It makes it tricky to guarantee Rikku can recharge her OD bar for the next fight. Grenades occasionally going critical do not help... I sometimes threw other items on the elements when I saw the Blaster Mine rolled high. Getting poisoned by the bug also screws up the timing since Rikku doesn't have time to throw Antidote, recharge OD, and throw two Grenades. I probably should have gotten a few more Silence Grenades to deal with this case.
