The master version is a bit different than the slave one. For one, the slave version can only counter with aerial spells, whereas the master vers can do the same in addition to Cloud Pierce and Binding Sphere. The aerial spells they use are different, though not that it matters. Master Milla also tends to go for those Magic Stance Up-normals, which can tag you a few times in mid-air before you can escape and using Grave if you don't recover. The bigger differences come at the halfway mark, and turn what is a fun battle to an annoying one =01....

After 50% HP, she has access to The Four version II. vII summons have better range and more lockdown capabilities than the originals. She can use Undine I to heal 294,000HP; it can be used anywhere, and gives her superarmor, so it can't be stopped. As 5:12 shows, Gnome II is completely unguardable(even with max VIT, All Guard, and Impregnable Guard), always materializes right above you, has a ridiculously large hitbox, and can also be used anywhere on the field. I lost so many times to getting repeatedly spammed by that move =01.

I'm not usually one to use absorption tactics, but they were necessary to play the way I wanted to play in the first half(utilizing her aerial maneuverability), since Binding Sphere gets used by her often on counters. Having those innate TP/HP healing armor/helmet in conjunction with Last Stand helped me survive the battle of attrition. Using poison(weapon) and burn(Swallow Flight) actually deals quite a bit of additional damage over the long run. After I see her heal, I begin to use PC2 to wrap up the fight, since previous attempts at avoiding PC2 allowed her to greatly out-heal the damage I gave her. I only intended to use two pre-scripted combos, but I kept messing it up =0b. Well, I dislike using the exact same combo more than once, so I suppose that's acceptable =03.
