Once feared as a great weapon of war, the giant was brought back by the power of the Blue Planet Crystal which consisted of the evil will that had permeated the land. Rain and his crew will need to face the all-powerful Four Fiends. The perilous road to their final fight (Golbez) has opened!
Note: Guide and figures are currently based on the Japanese Build. I will update accordingly when global event releases. Since we are a little behind time when the event was launched in JP, there is a high chance that the event will be easier in Global.
First Clear Rewards:
Preparations
Avoid Long battles, use Ra/Ga Spells or just escape from battles. Man-Eater is good here. You can add Man-Eater on your Diabolos too. Full-Break will not be useful here as there is a high chance that the bosses will resist it.
You’ll want to keep your HP more than half at any point in time to prevent death from the bosses’s AOE spells. Curaja, Dispel, Raise and Focus is a must.
Prepare Tents, Mega-Ether, Phoenix Down, Elixir and Echo Herbs.

Bosses
As you progress to the next difficulty level, the Exploration map will expand and an additional boss will be added to the Exploration. Since this is an Exploration event, it is good to charge up your Limit Burst and Esper Bar before engaging the bosses. YOU WILL BE FIGHTING THE BOSSES, BACK TO BACK. Use your Tent before you proceed to take on Golbez.

Scarmiglione
 |
Spirit LV.70 HP – 310000 MP – 700 |
| 100% Resist – Ice, Earth | 50% Weak – Fire, Holy | |
| Immune to all Status Ailments | |
Easiest way to kill Scamiglione is to cast Raise or use a Phoenix Down to OHKO it.
Rubicante
 |
Human LV.70 HP – 340000 MP – 700 |
| 100% Resist – Fire | 50% Weak – Ice, Water | |
| Immune to all Status Ailments | |
- Use Barfira or Focus to dampen the Fire Magic (When HP is at 50% and below)
- Use Ice Elemental Chain damage (with Man-Eater) to deal more damage
- When Rubicante enters it’s “Cloak Mode”, it’s DEF and SPR will increase. The best way to tackle this is to cast Dispel on it.
Cagnazzo
 |
Aquatic LV.70 HP – 320000 MP – 700 |
| 100% Resist – Fire | 50% Weak – Ice, Water | |
| Immune to all Status Ailments | |
- Focus and Cheer
- Set up Ice Elemental Chains with Imperil
- When he “wakes up” to prepare to cast his AOE attack, you’ll need to Dispel his shield so that you can continue dealing damage on him.
- If you’re low on firepower and cannot take him down after the Dispel, use a Lightning spell to interrupt the AOE attack (Tsunami).
- Prepare to remove Silence or Paralyze.
Barbariccia
 |
Spirit LV.70 HP – 330000 MP – 700 |
| 100% Resist – Wind | 50% Weak – Holy | |
| Immune to all Status Ailments | |
- Focus and Cheer
- Prepare for AOE damage when HP is below 50%
- Elemental Chain with any element except Wind
- Prepare to remove Petrify with Golden Needle or Stona
Golbez
 |
Human LV.70 HP – 400000 MP – 900 |
| – | |
| Immune to all Status Ailments | |
- Remember to use TENT before the fight.
- Focus, Cheer, Barfira, Barthundara
- Elemental Chain (with Man Eater – Lightning)
- Prepare to remove Paralyze
Golbez will always cast a AOE Paralyze attack on his first turn. The best case scenario is to have Jeweled Ring equipped on Roselia (to prevent her from paralyze) so that she can cast her Limit Burst to wake everyone up. Note: Remember to set her on Defensive mode to prevent her from dying on turn 1.
Attack Pattern includes – Fira/Thundaga + Bio or Drain or Attack. Osmose every 3 turns and Cursed Chill (ST Paralyze ability) every 4 turns.
At 50% HP, it’ll cast an AOE death spell.
At 30% HP, it’ll cast the AOE Paralyze attack again. You’ll want to avoid the second AOE paralyze attack at all cost. Setup his HP to just slightly above 30% and finish him off with all you got.
Recommended Party
Depending on your roster, you there are multiple ways you can set up your team.
Safe Team: 2 Healers, 1 Tank, 1 Support, 2 Attackers
Mage Team: 1 Healer, 1 Mage with cura, 3 Magic Attackers, 1 Tank
Tanks:
6* Cecil – Able to cast Focus and Curaja, Dispel on Rubicante and Cagnazzo, Saint Wall to protect the team.
Charlotte – Royal Armlet has a high chance to protect the team. High Defensive Stats.
Healers:
Roselia – She’s favoured in this even due to her status ailments clearing ability (Limit Burst and Spells)
Lenna – Cheer, Dispel, Esuna and Curaja
Garnet – Curaja and Raise. She can also equip the Bar-protection spells
Support:
Cerius – One of the best Support who is often forgotten. You’ll need Cerius for his Bar-protection.
Physical Attack:
Lightning – Ice Blitz should be the highest hitting ability in this event.
COD – If you do not have Lightning, you can stack Man Eater by equipping Diabolos to dish out tons of damage.
Magic Attack (Since you’ll mostly be casting Blizzaga, you’ll want to consider bringing the mage with better support abilities):
Tellah – Raise
Exdeath – High Defensive Stats
Terra – Raise
Kefka
So if we clear the dungeon, we get the items? Nothing to craft?
Yep, that all you need to do. Also, there isn’t really much of a point to redo these when finished, the mobs don’t drop anything and the unit/rank exp is really low.
If you’re prone to the game’s memory leak issue, do what you can to avoid crashing during the fiend chain fight in ELT. If you do crash, you’ll have to start over with whatever resources spent.
I’ve always been able to restart the fight/instance exactly where I was.
So once we get to finish this, it’s the end of it, right? No more continues grinding to get the materials for awakening? How about the trust moogles?
We get Treasure chest repeat or not?? Or just once??
Only once. There isn’t really any reason to redo these when finished. Also, the chests from prior difficulties are already looted in the harder ones, so there isn’t many materials to get
Very small mistake in the page: the items you say we get in Pro are gotten in ADV and the item gotten in ELT in Pro. It was correctly marked on the map but not in the table below! 😉
Thanks a lot for all you help in those events!
PS: not sure they made the bosses much easier than in jp, I already had a hard time clearing Pro haha
To answer the comments, everything in this event is a one-time reward. Once done, you can switch to something else. No repeat, no crafting
Soo. how the hell are we going to awaken units to 6 star if its a 1 time loot. Makes no sense in doing this event then
since 6 star is event only, you get what you can from this one and wait for the next
at least we will have a break from grinding. got a little tired during the Tatcis event. hehhe
golbez is absolute bullshit. he just did something and it just wipes the party without any damage or anything. this is fucking retarded what a letdown for what should have been an amazing capstone fight
Can’t help but laugh at your comment hahahaha
u mad much?
Haha don’t feel bad. I can’t even get past Cagnazzo. He casts his water attack and KOs everyone except 1 guy who can’t kill or revive anyone fast enough. Even when I have barwatera, shellga, and protectga simultaneously.
Tried 8 times. Wasn’t meant to be
Squad is good. Not sure why I can’t beat him.
Kefta
Terra
Charlotte
Lenna
COD
Lightning
Use a lightning elemental attack to cancel Tsunami.
event too easy, cleared ELT with 3* free units team and no companion
bullshit i guess
N00b
I Cleared with 1 star units in lvl 1 barehanded
sounds like extreme bullshit, picture or it didn’t happen
In the Elit, i died int the second boss.. His Fire atack deal 1,8 – 2 k to all players (with barfira and Spr/defense itens)
I will awakening Cecil and try again lather..
Team:
COD (300 dmg)
CECIL 5* (300 defense)
KEFKA (305 dmg)
EXADEAD (300 dmg)
LEENA (+- 300 Spr)
Any aditional tips?
Barfiraga with focus.
Charlotte or Cecil with all the green magic: barfira/thundara/aerora/watera.
I don’t think Exadeath is worth the equip because his status effects don’t work.
Just use barfira every 3 turns and dispel when he closes his cloak.
Charlotte & COD are great together because they have shellga & protectga
didn’t you momma even tell you, smoking crack and trolling doesn’t mix?
I used:
Vaan 5* (focus/barfira)
Lightning 6* (Ice Blitz)
Tellah 5* (Raise/Blizzard)
Kefka 5* (Blizzard for first 3 bosses/ Hyperdrive for Wind boss and Golbez)
Lenna 5* (Curaja/Cheer & please give her a paralysis resist accessory)
Lightning 6* friend (Ice Blitz)
Goog team Sanomia, only Van that i dont have (and the barfiraga, my Cerius is not full yet and i really dont know is he have this abillity).
Making the new Vortex of Awakening, i dont see the materials for aweakening Cecil.. Thats is really bad :(,
Someone try to kill monsters in the PRO exploration for see if they drop the materials?
Thanks for all the help!
your team is exactly MY TEAM too. high five!
Nice PlutoLim! Five fingers to you! rsrs
Elt only gives trust moogle lmao
Not worth it
So I bringed a Lightning friend with Chirijiraden, please dont do this
COD: Barrage (Diabolos)
Charlotte: Shellga/cover (Golem)
Tellah: Raise (Ramuh). Def most of the time to save his ass
Roselia: Curage/LB (Siren)
Fina: Cheer/Cura(Ifrit)
Lightning friend: 2x Gungnir (The main damager!!)
Forgot to mention manage to clear ELT with this setup
2x Gungnir could be me if Lightning got also Barrage 😉
It’s really you!!
What’s your Player ID L5000? I wanna friend you for your Lightning.
189 712 013
What’s your Name, just in case more add me
My name is GIGA-XIS. You appear to have max friends at the moment.
Got now 99+ request’s… wirhout your name, i can’t know how you are 😀
I need a better lightning friend. Mine has 278 dmg at max lvl. Add me c: Wulvyn be my UN
I’m jcincos. I feel with your lightning I could finally clear this event.
Elite isnt really worth it for 5 divine crystals and a trust moogle
I brought 2 healers with 1 support, 1 tank and 2 attackers,
Lightning 6*, ice blitz, dont use chirijiraden
Fina 5*, (lol) she can do bar and curaga for tank
WoL 5*, provoke and full, even tou partially works
Terra 5*, raise
Lenna 5*, curaja and cheer
Lightning 6* (friend) with chirijiraden :/
Barely won with only lightnings and lenna alive, but still damn proud of it. Magic attackers wont work when fighting Golbez as he always pin them down in 1 turn for me, so kefka and exdeath is out.
I managed to complete it with a struggle team
Cecil 5*
Kefka5*
Lena5*
Terra5*
Garland5*
Friend Kefka5* 300mag
Any strong lightning Duel I could use a friend lol
Use raise on 1st boss. Kill him in 1 hit
Plz kindly add me 319,506,494 Lightning *6 ATK 468
I use
WoL(Golem –> only full break)
Cerius(siren –> barfiraga, cura n LB)
Lenna(diablos –> cheer, curaja, dispel)
Kefka(ramuh –> blizzaga 2nd n 3rd boss, thundaga 4th n golbez)
Tellah(shiva–> raise 1st boss,blizzaga 2nd n 3rd boss, thundaga 4th n golbez)
Lighting *6 from friendlist with 566 att(diablos–> ice blitz 2nd n 3rd, crushing blow 4th n golbez)
Every bos just need 2 turn. Tellah, cerius m lenna must heal n raise if need. Dont forget bring tent n phoenix down for tellah. 🙂
Your guide fk’d me so bad kungpao. You didn’t mention that you need to cast a lightning spell after dispel on Cagnazzo to stop him from casting his AOE spell that decimates your whole team after he powers up. I lost over 20x because of your mistake. You owe me some lapis buddy.
I did ELT on first try..
With Lightning friend equipped with Diabolos + Gungnir + Excalibur..
And Golbez miss the paralyze twice on Lightning..LOL
Any whales able to help me get PRO done? I always seem to start off bad since I don’t have any units with Raise or Revive.
Currently using –
-Cecil
-Vaan
-Chiziru (Just got Man-eater) 295 Atk with Diabolos
-Roselia
-Golbez with 250 Mag
– Other 5* Maxed units are Garland and Zidane.
throw a phoenix down
I noticed Chizuru not mentioned or noted but for all who have her, she is pretty good for ELT. Having Chiz with Diabolos (Man Eater) + Barrage dishes out some nice damage. BUT aside from that, the main reason why is her other skill ability “Fingersnap” which dispels buffs and does phys. atk damage. Having her as the dispeller + good attacker eases up for more options with other units to deal more damage or keep party buffed and topped off. Just make sure Chiz isnt equipped with Chirijiraden.
(This is only another possible option since I didnt see her noted or posted. I used Chiz in my party setup along with Vaan, Kefka, Tellah, Lenna + Lightning as Friend. Pretty much wiped the floor with the Fiends, Golbez gave me a OH SHIT heart attack moment but prevailed in the end on 1st ELT run)
my team is COD,Tellah,Kefka,Kuja and Lasswell i cant pass Cagnazzo even with a lightning 6* friend 🙁 have 5*cecil but no blizzard skill have lvl73 roselia 5* garland. a little help pls?? 🙁
my team for ELT :
Ramza *6 (hero rime/bar aerora/bar fira)
Lightning *6 (diabolos – man eater / enhancer+spining splendor / ice blitz )
Tellah *5 ( bar thundara/ spr 10% x 2/chapeau / blizaga )
Celes *5 ( mag 10% x 4 / gravity rod /blizaga )
kefka *5 ( mag 10% x4 / lilith rod / circlet /magi robe /blizaga )
friend Lightning *6 ( diabolos – man eater / enhancer + blood sword from colo / ice blitz )
1 turn all except barbaricia 2 turn and golbez 2 turn
Beat this with:
Cecil (lvl84) – Focus
WoL – Full Break
Celes – Barfira (crafted ability), Seal Blade on Golbez
Lenna – Cheer/Curaja
Golbez – Blizzaga
Powerful Lighting Friend
It was a breeze. I feel it can be done with only a Focus user, a barfira user, a curaja healer, and deal damage only with a Lightning friend.
GDI. Rubicante still kills 2 people on my team the first fricking round he attacks and there’s no way to raise everybody in time for the next fight. It’s obnoxious. AND every lightning on my friends list has that stupid fire sword, too. *grumbles*. And this was with both Cheer and Focus up. Dafaq.
Only tank I have is WoL, unfortunately. Never got a Cecil to drop for me. Only person I have with focus is also Lid. So I have a Tellah, a Kefka, Lid, CoD, Lenna, Lid team. I don’t know if this is going to be do-able or not.
Cecil 6*, WoL, Chizuru, Kefta, Leena and a Lightning friend. If we repeat killing ELT, does it still give Trust Moogle ?
Guys, I need help with the Pro dungeon please, as I really want that rod for my Kefka. I’ve not been playing too long (I’m still on the third island, due to having to spend all my NRG grinding events), but I have 5* max Lenna, Kefka, Vaan, ExDeath & a 6* Cecil (lv 87), as my main party, with loads of 6* max Lightning friends (although the highest attack ones are around 450) I also Already farmed & used all the metal cactaurs from the Halloween event to get this far. Can’t seem to get the job done. Any advice please? I also have a 4* max Laswell, Rain & Chizuru & a 5* lv 44 WoL.
