Sephiroth Boss Guide — Step-by-Step Guide & Transcript

[00:03] >> If you're playing Final Fantasy Resonance, you know that visions are really important. But one of the arguably most important visions in the game is really hard to get. Whether you want him for his flowing locks or his

[00:17] powerful abilities, here's [music] how to find, beat, and unlock Sephra.

[00:29] soldier, you're going to need to keep playing until chapter 5, where you obtain the airship. You can use that airship to casually fly into this gigantic whirlpool located above Grand Shel. After you check that all your

[00:42] limbs are still intact, you'll come out the other end and walk into his vision cave. Sadly, finding Sepharoth is less than half the battle because now we have to actually battle him.

[00:56] Sepharoth is level 45, so you don't want to start attempting this challenge until you're at least that. While you're leveling, you can start to think about abilities and which visions to use to combat him.

[01:09] >> You want to focus on buffing physical attacks specifically, as he has extremely high magic defense in the fight's first phase, plus resistance to nearly all debuffs. >> High crit chance and physical damage are

[01:22] >> Let's see if this works. If you've used Libra on Sepharoth, you may have noticed that he doesn't start with an elemental weakness. One of the best ways to stagger Sepharoth is to use

[01:35] Lid's final Mechabo upgrade skill, Mecha Mog Scan, to add an elemental weakness >> He's a smart one. You know, >> this alongside her high physical damage makes her a great addition for this fight. I also recommend pairing her with

[01:51] fight. I also recommend pairing her with Cloud's huge crit damage buffs. move it. >> And bringing along Nickel, who will give you a bunch of buffs, as well as valuable healing and revives using Leah's vision with the combination of

[02:03] tactic fluid warfare and Furion's ability, Arms Akimbo, granting him up to four actions each turn. >> You assumed we were limited to a single >> For the last two slots, I recommend Lazwell and Sakura.

[02:18] Lewell to do damage and stagger with the elemental coverage of bots and Sakura for huge magic damage in later stages of the fight and her limit burst eternal >> be our bull work >> which activates a barrier on all allies

[02:32] attack. >> We'll fail them in one breath. Although physical attacks are important against Sephro in his first phase, things get more complicated. Every time he uses his

[02:44] ability, Masamune in waiting, which grants him the power to block and parry grants him the power to block and parry all physical attacks for an entire turn. When he sports this blue sword icon, instead of attacking, I'd recommend

[02:58] setting up some buffs and protection against his powerful and aggressive moves. If you have Clive's ability, Mirage, this can be a good one to set up as it will create two mirages of a character

[03:10] that will take physical damage for them. >> Miss Sephro isn't resistant to being slowed. So, you can use slowing moves to put off his massive damage. >> Just be careful that you don't push his turns too close together or he'll have

[03:25] the ability to use two actions to destroy your whole team before you can destroy your whole team before you can recover. health bar, Sepharoth will turn invincible until his next turn.

[03:40] >> That seems to have no effect >> when he will activate his one-winged angel form. This form will cause him to gain both a new elemental attack and elemental weakness, as well as reset his stagger meter completely.

[03:54] >> Let's stop you from becoming a problem. You can use Lid's skill I mentioned earlier to add a second weakness and then roll it if needed until he has one easier staggering. These elemental weaknesses are especially important

[04:08] since in this form he will counter any non-elemental attacks, dealing high damage to your party. So make sure you're only using elemental attacks in this stage. During his one-winged angel form, Sephro will

[04:24] sometimes perform an attack that will put your whole team down to one HP. To make sure you can survive his follow-up attacks, I recommend setting up Sakura's limit break and applying Leah's Ray skill to each party member in

[04:38] advance. If he gives you the chance to make an action before launching his next attack, you can also quickly heal back up with some strong healing potions and >> I'm glad I brought this. Once you take him down to 20% HP, Sephro

[04:54] will enter his final phase, divine proclamation. Seriously, and start a countdown of fate. It starts at 9 and ticks down whenever he uses a skill. So, don't forget the slowing tip to push back his

[05:07] moves a bit. You'll want to defeat him before the end of this meteor symbols before the end of this meteor symbols countdown or else.

[05:21] >> Get him to zero HP and that's it. No more tricks. Did this explanation help you defeat Sephro? Let us know in the comments. And for more Final Fantasy tips and tricks, keep your eyes on IGN.
