The first of the two series' uber bosses.
Keeping your distance and positioning your members at the start would be my advice.
He usually lets you do so if you get into the battle with everyone on 'manual', so spread out first.
If only these stupid healing bitches would incorporate this mindset instead of running close to melee...

A good strategy to get this battle done in a more relaxed manner is this:
- Avoid weak attacks like the devil avoids holy water! Only set spells and skills to O
- Anne using Fists of Fury on O to stunlock him (breaking his guard)
- Fidel (Air Slash) and Victor (Air Slash and/or Dragon Roar) keeping their distance, too
- Emmerson firing automatic attacks supported by roles increasing the chance to stun
- Thinking of the arena as a clock and positioning the fighters with some space to each other (like 2-4-6-8-10-12 although Relia runs around like a stupid chicken and one will need to catch Gabe's attention)

Using long distance skills even with melee combatants will make the bout last longer, but your party isn't constantly in danger of being downed by your foe's AoE spear skills.

Lastly, when you manage to bring this powerful enemy down to the ground, check if he drops Condemner's Cerulean Plume, a rare ingredient to be used in Item Creation.
