Tips

• See testimonials and discussions.
• Dragonlord deals lightning and fire magic damage as well as AoE silence on first turn, AoE sleep on second.
• Bonus enemies will appear with higher frequency the higher the stage is.
  • Gold Golem drops 500 currency on defeat. It doesn't appear on LGD.
  • Liquid Metal Slime drops 1000 currency on defeat. Liquid Metal Slime completely resists magical attack and only takes 1 damage per hit of physical attacks. Hybrid or unmitigated damage may do more than 1 damage, but use fixed damage like Metal Slash, sold by King Mog, or chain them to most effectively bring it down.
• Using many low level bonus units on LGD is difficult but possible with some gearing.
  • Escape on all regular battles, as they only drop 1 currency per enemy.
  • Befriend and use strong friend unit with high bonus.
  • Use two or more bonus units with Pod 153, and they will be able to produce high chain for the strong unit to finish.
  • Use Crazy Day for imperil if needed.
  • Use Rikku's Pouch to break and inflict status ailments. Alternatively, use World Destroyer or Toxic Rain.
  • Use Hero's Rhyme to give stats buff to party.
  • Use a source of Man-Eater for added damage against the boss.
