This is a video showing how to kill Aeronite with minimum effort and bare essential preparation. The only thing that will take a few minutes in this preparation is the farming of the ability Heavy Slash Lv 3, which won't take long anyway (Anubys enemies drop this ability).

The Schemata I used are:

1. Garb: Quiet Guardian (buy from Outfitters in The Slaughterhouse area in Yusnaan).
Weapon: DO NOT use the Gagnrad as I did in the video. As an user pointed out in the comments, this will go against your interests because of the malus on Stagger Power of this weapon. Sorry about this!
Shield: Ul'dahn Crest (doesn't really matter; it's from the Canvas of Prayer quest "Roadworks I").
Accessories: Preta Hood (dropped by boss of The Dead Dunes); Runic Ring (treasure in Luxerion).
Abilities: Aerora, Deshell, Deprotect.

2. Garb: Soldier of Peace (complete quest "The Hunter's Challenge" in Jagd Village (Wildlands)).
Weapon: Demon Knife (buy for 220,000 Gil from Forge in Yusnaan).
Shield: Gridanian Sigil (doesn't really matter; this one is from Canvas of Prayers quest Roadworks II).
Accessories: Fighter's Emblem; Dawn Gauntlets.
Abilities: Thundara, Mediguard, Heav Slash Lv 3 (becomes Artemis's Arrows in battle).

Heavy Slash Lv 3 is dropped by Anubys enemies starting from Day 10. This is the only "leveled" ability I use in this video. For max effect, synthesize with each other Heavy Slash Lv 3 abilities until you get a STR multiplier of 6.20x.

3. Garb: Black Mage (from treasures of The Ark).
Weapon: Chaos's Revenge (dropped by boss of The Wildlands).
Shield: Double Cross (doesn't matter, it's actually a default shield lol).
Accessories: Silk Scarf (treasure in The Dead Dunes); White Strap (treasure in the Temple Ruins of The Dead Dunes).
Abilities: Fira, Heavy Guard or Mediguard.

Short strategy: use the "magical immunity schemata" (# 1) whenever he attacks you. Try to keep some distance away from him to avoid the "claw" attack and the "Roar" attack (both deal physical damage, so magic immunity won't help). The attack Hellflare and the first part of the attack "Megaton Break" deal massive physical damage: either Heavy-Guard against them, or use Overclock to Stagger-interrupt him before he can launch them (do so only if he's already close to Staggering), or just let him kill you and use a Phoenix Down to revive.

After the fourth Stagger you will deal damage spamming Artemis's Arrows while he has Deprotect and while you have Bravery. On Easy you won't even need to use EP-recovering items, since 5-6 Overclocks will be more than enough to finish him off.
