Hey everyone,

Sorry if there is a post to put all boss troubles in, but i couldn't find it.

I'm at the stage of the game where i have saved my game just outside the Elder Wyrm battlefield, and i have tried 4 times so far and have had no luck with this boss.

I believe my levels may be a little low, with all 3 main characters at 22, as i havn't really invested much time in levelling up yet.

Basch can tank the mob like a champ, but once he uses the Spore move, that inflicts every imaginable status effect on my character i sort of freeze and have trouble knowing what to remove first.

I have got Gambits to use items when a character is silenced, and for Penelo to use Esuna on Slow, but the Wyrm seems to like to use this attack, which inflicts my characters with Oil, and then use a Fire attack immediatly after.

Any advise on what to remove first, what level i should be to try him, and if possible, if i can go through Feywood instead of fighting him.

Thanks alot

I had the same trouble when facing him...if he's the one that's past the Gilmore Jungle. I just leveled up in the Jungle until I could defeat those blue hound dog things in close to 2 hits before I defeated the Wyrm.

Also work on getting all your Quickenings early for your characters because it essentially triples your max MP for using spells and healing.

Also, I moved this to the Help Booth for any of your FF help related problems.

Thanks, sorry, i didn't see this forum.

I think, for now, i will skip the Wyrm and run through Feywood towards Paramina Rift, then to Mt. Bur Omisace.

Maybe i will come back later once i have got some levels and try him again.

Thanks for all the advise though
