@sanitybreedssorrow Go to the paradyym thing and it should have a 'Battle Team' option. You are able to swap characters by clicking on what ever character you want as your leader, then click on the character first on the list (which would be Light).

Currently 2023, still works. Once you get that stagger, switch over to commando, commando, ravager and don't stop. Don't switch, just wait for your atb gage to fill and keep it going.

Nice, great strategy! I, like many on here, was struggling with this guy like crazy. I had more success with Sazh, Lightning, and Fang though and used the begging of the fight to have Sazh haste me, add a ton of buffs and such, then do your route. With Vanille he always fell before I could kill him as my atb gauge filled.

Wow this is soo much better than what I used to use. I knew there had to be an easier way to beat this POS. This is probably one of the hardest fights in the entire game. He cheats non-stop. I was using Sazh/Lightning/Fang before. And same thing, buff your characters and go to work. And just try to survive after second half, use a summon to finish him off. But I got to admit, I never would have thought to launch him, and just keep him there.

Try go Paradigms menu and you should see "Battle Team" option there... most-left is ALWAYS Leader-spot while second and third from left are the members to fight in battles. To me, that's pretty silly question because once Sazh and Vanille finally rejoin with all others, it show the tutorial how to change battle-team OR check the Datalog: Primers. >__>

@orimotoizumi thanks. I believe i used tri disaster because they dealed less damage. The more damage he takes, the faster he changes. Plus, haste makes attacks very fast so i didn't have to worry about the stagger bar dropping.
