I've tried it all. Party Finders, ventrillo, coordinating with other members and strategizing BEFORE the battle, but nothing yet has supplied a win even once.

At this point, if I don't complete the quest in the next month or so, even after acquiring all the best gear I can find, I think I'm just going to quit this game for good and go do better things with my time. This is ultimately blocking me from progressing through the story.

I love the Final Fantasy series, period. I love this game especially. Love the graphics. I love the mechanics of most components in this game. Crafting is wonderful. The user interface is very simple, easy to read, and easy to learn. But I HATE this battle, and I HATE the people who play it... most will give up after wiping even one time! Wasting my 2 hour wait on DF! HUFF!!!!!!!!

(Don't even bother mentioning Titan EX. The few people I've been able to talk to on the game have already filled my mind with nightmares.)
