Battle Flow:

According to Pro BFers out there, you can do this using 2 methods: Nuke or Tough it out. I know my setup could be better with certain spheres but hey, I opted to nuke it and got lucky? Here's how it went.

First 2 battles were easy, nothing to worry about much. I just made sure to have SBBs ready for all units when the battles ended, as well as the Overdrive Gauge. The real problem starts at battle 3 which most of you who have attempted this already know. Reed will summon the pesky Nevsky, who will buff wipe your team at some point during turn 3, and then Reed's bunch will bring the pain. If you're using the nuke method and Nevsky manages to show his face? Then my friend, your run is over.

To counter that, killing Reed in turn 2 is an absolute must. So what I did in turn 1 was I put my Rhoa on Overdrive first and popped a fujin on him. I didn't fire off his UBB since I needed to give him water buff first so Quaid got first action. My Swipe Pattern is as follows: Quaid SBB -> Rhoa UBB -> Avant SBB -> Michele SBB -> Selena SBB -> Dolk SBB. Reed's HP dropped to somewhere above 60% with the first hit. Since there's five of them and all, I didn't have to worry about filling my BB/SBB gauges after this turn.

For turn 2, my Avant friend took center stage. I popped a Hero Crystal, tossed him a fujin, and gave everyone else some Brute Elixir. Since my buffs have already been set from turn 1, I fired off Avant's UBB first. My swipe pattern is as follows: Avant UBB -> Rhoa SBB -> Michele SBB -> Quaid SBB -> Selena SBB -> Dolk SBB. From here on out, I prayed I got my timing down correctly to get sparks and lo and behold, I watched Reed along with 3 of his buddies drop dead after the hit. Only Eru was left standing since I didn't have Light Buff on my team but hey.. he had little to no HP left and I just whacked him as needed, moving on to the final stage where Grafl and Falma awaits. (Easy peasy)

Total Items Used: 2x Fujin, 1 Hero Crystal, 6x Brute Elixir
