This isn't particularly "help" I need as such, more a query. Anyway, for those who may [or may not] know, you get the trophy/achievement for getting a 5-Star rating in the final boss battle. So:

1) For those who have achieved it, roughly how long do you have to beat it in to 5-Star it? And,

2) I was reading the guide and it advised to have the "Gold Watch" equipped to extend the time, however, given that it's acquired after the last mark mission is it even reasonably possible to get it with it being the hardest monster/boss [or so the guide says] in the whole game? And,

3) I looked at the picture in the guide and the party he had set up had roughly 18,000HP. Now, was this a hell of a lot of grinding before he took it on or is there some way to go back and re-do the boss battle afterwards, albeit, given the ending of the game
the latter is probably unlikely
 
After beating the last boss you are given the option to save your game. When you reload this save each characters crystariums will have a tenth stage for every role. I have beaten the last boss in 1:21 (During the first stagger) and this wasn't enough to get the trophy so I get the feeling the Gold Watch is completely necessary, although I know in order to beat the last mark you need a specific set of paradigms, which you can see in the guide, because I tried to kill him and OMG did he take me to pieces....
 
I 5* this battle first try, complete it in roughly 1min 30sec I think.

Equip Rav/Rav/Rav until staggered then switch to Com/Com/Com or Com/Com/Rav

As soon as this boss is staggered, its practically dead, but if you don't 5* it first time, you can always come back later.

Bare in mind, I grinded for an hour or two before the boss to get some extra CP and then when I went into the battle, I equipped items to raise HP + Strength.

Btw, I had roughly 14k health on all my members and never had to heal once, really, just stagger the boss ASAP and you win.
