1. Where should I farm upgrading components on Gran Pulse?

2. Where should I farm CO on Gran Pulse?

3. Should I upgrade my accesories also?

4. Is SNOW/SAZH/HOPE combination good for CH11-CH13?

I don't really know the answers to most of your questions, but I'd say that Lightning, Fang and Hope are the best main team, with the other three becoming back-up, specialists characters. Fang is incredibly strong.

However, it does depend on which Roles you have trained each character in. How have you developed each character?

Yeah like Lirael said. Lightning Fang Hope. But since you have already trained Snow Sazh Hope, then just go with that.

If you mean grinding CP, there's a really good place in archylte steppe. At the north area (near entrance to the cave), there's a behemoth king fighting a Megistotherian. Now start with com com rav and kill the behemoth king as fast as you can. Don't buff or debuff. It's all about speed, before he cures himself. After that, you can go easy and kill the Megistotherian. This will yield 6000CP. Backtrack a little and return. They should respawn. There's no need to backtrack too far.

1. Where should I farm upgrading components on Gran Pulse?
• Chapter 11, Archlytte Steppe

2. Where should I farm CO on Gran Pulse?
• CO? or Do you mean CP. If so, then you can farm at the same place. I advise you to not touch the Adamantoises until your character main roles are Level 3.

The easiest place to farm CP is at the lower side of the Archlytte Steppe, where there should be a Behemoth and a Wolf Monster (forgot then name) fighting. You can easily Pre-emptive strike them and earn easy CP. And you can just leave the place, and come back to it, and they will respawn.

3. Should I upgrade my accesories also?
• I strongly recommend you upgrade your Accessories with HP boosting, that may help dramatically.

4. Is SNOW/SAZH/HOPE combination good for CH11-CH13?
• It depends on how far you have their roles leveled up. Snow is useful as SEN, Sazh is useful as a RAV, and Hope is useful as a MED or RAV.

Also, if you have any trouble fighting the last boss (when you get there) I have a guide that may help.
