I've been breezing through Elite modes since their rebalance yesterday, but I've hit a hard wall at this boss. He's weak to Ice, but he casts it Reflect on himself the first time he's hit by it, and he can occasionally one shot members of my party (Paladin Cecil, Drk Knight Cecil, Kain, Rydia, Tyro, all ~ level 30).
My current strategy has been to alpha strike the Right Arm, then whittle down the left a bit, before focusing the boss. If both arms die, they instantly regenerate and I lose. But if the boss dies, the arms self destruct, killing what members of my party are left standing, and if I don't lose to that, I'm in no shape for the subsequent boss fight. And even getting to that point is a 30 minute + battle of attrition because of the absurd defenses put up by the boss and arm, all while my own team struggles to stay alive (spoiler: they don't.)
How do I get through this fight in good shape to take on the next boss, short of grinding another 10 or more levels?
