A simple fight with Ice 2. I could have done it either way with Galuf as the offense instead of Bartz, with Galuf as a Black Mage with an Ice Rod equipped.

In his Human form, he will rotate between Blaze and a physical attack. Blaze is a percentage based attack, which is why the damage will seem lower than a normal playthrough. Once hit, he will change forms to either a Tornado or a Hand, countering with Flame beforehand

The Hand is immune to Ice and can paralyze a character briefly. Due to being immune to ice, I had to make Bartz attack a non-Ice based attack, then swtich back, since he does not change forms unless damaged. I think he's immune to other elementals as well in this form, but I'm not certain. Once damaged, he will single target Fire 2 before changing forms.

The Tornado form is simple. He will keep casting Fire 2 on himself to heal until forced to change forms. Counters with Magnet before changing forms, forcing the character into the front row. Nothing to worry about in this boss.

The key to defeating this boss is learning his three forms. Knowing them the fight becomes easy. I wasn't really caring or trying in this fight and many mistakes are made, but it's all good.

Bartz - Level 11
Galuf - Level 11
