6.)lick

7.)deathguise

Ok have auto regen and auto haste with your best equipment regardless of what it absorbes.deathguise has really strong attacks but he starts off by useing meteor and whoever survived have them phenix down eiko if eiko survived have her use full life on someone and slowly build your party back up his other attacks are slash(500-1500 to a single character) death slash(1500-2500 to a single character) cross slash (1000-2000 to everyone) have zidane use thievery(his normal attack doesnt reach) have freya jump have vivi use flare and have eiko use holy to do 9999 damage but kill him fast so he can't use meteor again.

8.)trance kuja

Hp 45,000 ap0 steal ether rebirth ring white robe

Have auto reflect on eiko and have a part of at least lvl 50 or +.this is a really hard battle kuja starts off by using reflect but if eiko has auto reflect you can cast magic off her kuja uses flare and holy to start the battle but a little in he starts useing flare star(2000-3000 every character)and he uses it really often.have zidane steal and attack have freya use reis wind if you don't have auto regen and jump or use dragon breath if you have it have vivi use boost a couple of times and have eiko heal and if she gets a chance holy but after the battle kuja doesnt admit defeat and uses ultima to try to kill everyone(dont worry it's like the last battle with him it doesnt do damage.

8.)necron

Hp65,000 ap0 steal elixer

Take off all your abilities and equip anti body clearheaded bodytemp insomniac loudmouth and any otherthings I forgot. This is the second hardest fight in the game and guess what I'm not going to help youbesides you should know my strategies by now and I think your ready if you fail it's ok just go back level up and try again even tho I did it on my first try. But I've also beat the game 18 timesbut thats not impresive I've beaten final fantasy 7 34 times and final fantasy 8 21 times I've beaten ff 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,9,10,10-2,11,tactics and tactics advanced
