This is the reason why I had to max out Barret and Vincent's ultimate weapons. You can't survive any of his first three attacks, so it needs to be done before Pale Horse. Using Reflect would allow you to stay alive until Deen, but that would only complicate things in other way, like making it harder for Cloud to get killed by the wing attack. If Shadow Flare doesn't hit him, it's very important that he has the highest HP so that he gets killed by the wing. Otherwise, you risk ending up with only him alive and that won't get you far. So, even though he doesn't contribute much damage, he's still an important piece in the strategy.

This was surprisingly easy in the Berserk challenge, but surprisingly hard here, and probably not for the reason you think.
Gas Ducters (0:00) - They can be insta-killed with Added Effect=Destruct in the weapon, but the chance isnt very high. You can be happy if it happens in less than five turns. You can lose the second battle if it goes on for too long, but it would take some really bad luck.
Wolfmeister (1:14) - He hits hard, but hes vulnerable to poison and weak to water. Beating him isnt a problem unless you run into some bad luck, but you cant just beat him and move on to the next battle. You need Reds limit break in the next battle, so you cant use it here for extra damage and you cant let him die either. Since Red can only take one attack, youre gonna need some luck and hope he goes after Vincent instead. At least the first few attacks will hit Cid, since hes got Cover.
Eagle Gun (3:19) - Have you ever heard of a hard Eagle Gun battle before? Probably not, since his attacks are weak and you can use gravity based attacks to take him down quickly in most challenges. Since you cant do that here, hes actually a pretty big obstacle and I had to master two Magic Plus to even stand a chance. You can get almost 6000 damage from Livewire, but you cant rely on it being used three times, so you need as much damage from Red as possible. Thats why I saved his limit break for this battle. If you did lose him in the previous battle, you can still win, but then you need at least two Livewires. However, at these levels with Fury, they have a good chance of missing, and I had several attempts fail because of that.
I also included the Attack Squad at the end, but hes so harmless I didnt even bother healing or reviving Cid.

This is where we first run into trouble. Unlike in the Berserk challenge, you cant target the pyramids unless you use a multi target attack. Since I wanted to see how far I could get without grinding for new ones, Tifas first one will have to do. It will choose a random target, even if you only have the first one, so its a little luck reliant. Of course, I could have at least learned Somersault to make it a little easier, but I only needed a couple of attempts before I won.
