my adamantoise tactics (fang/light/vanille)

[m147]

i know this has probably been discussed extensively, but here goes anyway, i hope this helps some of you out.

party:
fang light vanille

equipment:
venus gospel* ultima weapon* brightwing staff*
-- -- --
genji glove genji glove weirding glyph*
power glove* power glove* weirding glyph*
power glove* power glove* weirding glyph*
power glove* collector ctlg.* cnsr. catalog*

paradigms:
rapid growth syn syn syn (starting)
discretion com med med
tri-disaster rav rav rav
smart bomb sab rav rav
cerberus com com com

location: eden, leviathan plaza
start off with dispatching the 11 sanctum celebrants and 2 humbabas so the area is cleared. attack the adamantoise and follow this process:

start with rapid growth & manually cast bravera & faithra to all three, and let the others cast on auto. when you cast on the third character, press L1 and wait till all buffs apply.

switch to discretion. and hit the left leg with fang and let the others heal until all characters are in the green, should only take one round.

switch to tri-disaster, auto-chain with fang once, then hit L1 and wait till it staggers.

switch back to discretion and use fang's highwind on the left leg to kill it. hit the right leg with fang once and press L!, wait till your health is in the green again.

switch to tri-disaster, auto-chain with fang once, then hit L1 and wait till it staggers.

switch again to discretion, hit once with fang, in this time you should heal back to green (this is because commandos hit harder if their health is in the green, though it's not that needed).

switch to smart bomb and auto-cast with fang until you apply slow, deprotect, deshell, and imperil and use O to cancel once the buff applies.

switch to tri-disaster to stagger. hit till about 800% should only two auto-chains with fang.

switch to cerberus and pummel till it's down. should be before it gets up.

happy hunting.

[Paradigm Fang]

Yours is good and probably works well, but try this:

Party:
Fang/ Lightning/ Hope

Paradigms:
Evened Odds (SAB/MED/SYN)
Combat Clinic (SEN/MED/MED)
Perseverance (SAB/MED/MED)
Aggression (COM/COM/RAV)
Tri-disaster (RAV/RAV/RAV)
Combat Clinic (SEN/MED/MED) *This is for quick shifting in case of quake or roar.

Equipment:
Use whatever weapons you have. The accessories are important.
Cnsr. Catalog/Col. Catalog/ General's Belt x2
General's Belt x4 on everyone else. This significantly lowers his damage and your healing time as well.

Strategy:
Start off in evened odds and buff your party and debuff his legs with deprotect, deshell, and imperil. Heal when needed with combat clinic. Switch to tri-disaster and stagger his leg. Then use aggression to kill the first leg. Highwind makes this go extremely fast. Repeat on the other leg. Switch back to evened odds and do the same to the other leg. After he falls, switch to perseverance and only put deprotect, deshell, and imperil on him. It saves time. Stagger him with tri-disaster and switch to aggression. Attack until he stands up then use highwind. Repeat until dead. With this strategy you should be able to kill it in one to two staggers. Battle time is about 6 minutes. Good luck.
