Nice guis finish last
Lowdown on the restrictions of this challenge:
Ability Nodes Only (ANO) - You can only activate ability nodes, no raising characters' stats in anyway.
Own Sphere Grid (OSG) - Each character may not leave their own section of the sphere grid. Note that these rules combined mean you can still use key spheres to e.g. teach Lulu Doublecast, Yuna Auto-Life etc.
No Summons (NS) - Self-explanatory, Aeons are OP meatshields
No Overdrives (NO) - Mainly for getting rid of Rikku's Mix, which is ludicrously OP
No Items (NI) - No using items, in or out of battle. Chakra Drops, Revival Beads, Megido Rocks, all those classic FF staples are banned (you can still customize equipment though)
Ugh, I remember this one very well. It's not too bad once you get into the swing of things, you just need to remember its patterns and act accordingly - the head alternates between Thunder and Venom, while the body alternates between physical attacks and Demi (although at the very start it attacks twice.)
The first thing is to Power Break it, and Haste Auron. It might be tempting to Haste Lulu and go straight for the body but if you do she'll run out of MP long before it dies. Have Auron deal with the arms and take the hits from the body with Guard. Lulu stops the head from moving with her spells, and Yuna casts NulShock and heals Auron. When you get chances in between all this you want to buff Lulu's magic and Auron's strength to the max. It's a pretty long fight, but things will speed up immensely once you take out the head since you can stop guarding altogether as long as you keep Yuna and Lu in good health (his attack deals ~400 max to an unbuffed Yuna.)
As annoying as it is, you really want a Sleepstrike weapon drop. It's an amazing ability for random encounters that you won't be able to customize for a long time. In theory it's roughly a 50% chance since anything other than Auron/Kimahri weapons are guaranteed to have it. In reality, you may end up stuck here a while...
