I got as far as taking back Castle Fynn last night. Digital pics of a TV are terrible though. My magic spells aren't all that great but I haven't been having difficulties. I'm pretty much only trying to level up the Fire, Ice, Esuna and Cure.
I met up with quite a few of the Hill Gigas but they're not too much trouble with the Crescent Sword equipped.
Taking back Fynn was too easy.
