Overview (For Elt only)
The fight is designed for Players to take down both bosses simultaneously. When one of the boss is dead, the remaining boss will be enraged. To make things worst, it will heal back all it’s HP and buff itself, making the fight difficult.
However, if you’re going for the “1 by 1” route, you will need to consider your team’s composition and gear to decide who to kill first. If your team has high Water resistance and are not MP dependent or you’re able to recover MP reliably, kill Ifrit first. If you can stack Fire resistance more reliably, kill Siren first. Take note: If you’re doing the 1 by 1 route, make sure your AOE attacks will not cause the “remaining boss”‘s HP to drop below 50% to avoid the threshold skill from stacking.
Increase Fire/Water/Dark Resistance
- Dark Ifrit and Siren will both cast skills that have high Fire, Water and Dark Elemental Damage
- Make sure you have at least 50% resistance to all 3 elements (after buff).
- The key to this fight is how much resistance you can stack on each character based on the above 3 elements.
- Do no equip Shiva, Ramuh and Carbuncle
- Marie’s “Love You All” and CoD’s “Omni-Veil” are both useful buffs for the fight.
Status Ailments
- There are 3 status ailments to look forward to in this fight
- Sleep, Confuse and Silence
- Make sure your Healer(s) and Tank are properly equipped with accessories that can prevent these status ailments.
- Make sure you always remember to Dispel buffs.

The Fight
- Stack as much Resistance (at least 50% with buff) as you can on all your units.
- Power Break works on Ifrit – Global DEF/SPR Break works
- Def/SPR Break works on Siren (optional)
- Make sure you Dispel all their buffs at the start of the battle.
- Keep your Fire/Water/Dark Elemental Buffs up at all times.
- Both bosses will “Charge” for a turn before using it’s threshold skill (70/50/30). It is important for you to dispel their charges before the skill lands.
- If you are not able to kill either 1 of the bosses in 1 hit, DO NOT drop more than one HP threshold as it will wipe your team the next turn.
- If Ifrit drops below the 50% HP threshold while Siren is below 50% HP and alive, Ifrit will nuke the party with a 999% fire/water/dark magic AOE.
- When the other way round, Siren will perform some extra attack that does lesser damage than Ifrit’s nuke.
- If you’re going to do the simul-kill strat, make sure you bring Ifrit down to 50% and allow him to fire off his threshold skill first, while keeping Siren above 50%.
Units
Those of you who watched my stream saw me cheese it with 4 Orlandeaus and 1 Ariana. I’m still trying my best to figure out how to do it without cheesing it so that you can actually complete the Esper achievement. However, this fight is more gear dependent rather than Unit dependent.
For now:
Tank – Cecil
Healer – Refia,
Support – Marie, CoD, Minfilia, Ling
Attacker – Orlandeau, Firion
Budget team:
Xon will be great here, because he can dispel and copy enemy’s buff for party.
I did it 3 times, first 2 cecil, Refia, Minfilia & Orlandu friend. Had to redo to get GS mastery cause Orlandu died first round since friend unit didnt gear for resistances, used up almost all my mana items and stupidly forgot Refia isn’t immune to sleep
2ns time: 2-Turn KO second round to get GS mastery, Chiz x2 Ling to break, firion with bushido freedom, Orlandu + Orlandu friend >bushido first then break then 38 hit chain to one shot Ifrit, Siren heals then repeat
Both chiz hand dual wield kazekiri (one materia and one 2nd knife), firion had 717 atk and orlandu 804
3rd time, used friend’s phone: Snow, Ling, Minfilia, Yshtola + 929 Orlandu (Friend / My unit with GS mastery) ling the mana battery makes a huge difference
4th time later will try on another friend’s phone: WKN, Marie, Refia, Noctis + my orlandu
