So I'm not long into chapter 13, which I didn't expect to as It kind of suddenly delved into it. Mainly because the crystarium didn't expand, i know it does at the end though.
Though my problem is, I can imagine the final battle being quite difficult, my characters are maxed out on their three initial roles because I prefer to have them strong at them than weak at the others. But I was wondering would it be worth it venturing into the other roles to build my characters up so the final battle is easier or is it not that much of a problem and could be solved with weapons and the right accs.?
Personally, I'd rather keep my cp for when i finish so i can master the other roles.
help? aha
 
Hey! I just finished FFXIII today (had to take a week break... chapter 12 boss annoyed me :( ) anyway, I'd say Tier 2 weps are a must. You shouldn't need to go outside of your characters primary 3 roles getting them all up should help for the hp of course but you shouldn't need to get, for example: sentinel/sab/syn you won't need to raise them on a character such as lightning that comes more after the game really. :) and another thing have a good syn and sab for the boss makes it 10x easier :)

Best of luck!

ohh thank you :) that should be a lot of help! I typically only have a sen and syn in a party which has done the trick so far for all the other bosses. And my characters weapons are all at tier 2 so yayy hopefully I should be fine!

I'll let you know how i get on :)
 
I managed to do it last night :-) I ditched Snow for Vanille and I got it on my first go.
doing it with snow had four hours of failed attempts! was not happy at all! haha
but thank you for all the help! it worked :)

Click to expand...
Save your cp. I did it in chapter 11 (I got maxed out in that Taejin's tower) and I was SO glad once the crystarium expanded. Everyone pretty much got their important new skills straight off (eh. Hope got haste straight away)
 
If your characters are maxed in their 3 core roles, then the final boss battle will be a piece of cake. I used Light-Fang-Hope and MED-SAB-SYN, MED-MED-MED, and RAV-RAV-RAV paradigms and got the superstar achievement on the first try (after discovering which paradigms worked best of course) The final boss went down on the first stagger. Just remember, buff and debuff at the start and you'll be good.

Oh, and only light had a tier 2 weapon, Vanille and Hope only had tier 1s.
 
It seems as if your primary roles are the best for actually growing your characters stat-wise, while the secondary roles are there so you can get some very specific paradigms, which you'll only really need for cie'th stone missions and such.

Basically, just focus on your primary roles, because you'll grow much faster, and you don't really need any secondary roles until the post-game. As for weapons, I had Light and Fang with tier 2 weps, and I'm pretty sure Vanille was a tier 1, but I can't confirm that. And I only died once on the final bosses.
 
I was fighting Orphan's first form, and I think I got it down to 300K HP give or take, and the douche killed my lead with a Death spell :rage:

I have the guide, and it recommends me equipping Cherub Crowns on the lead...but I don't have any D=

Also, I didn't really pay attention to weapon leveling or anything. Like, I powered up my main 3's very first weapon they had up to max and not any of the weapons I found later - was that a bad thing to do? >_>

Like, how much damage should the commandos be doing?
