Execution!

[DocFrance]

The two primary objectives in this fight should be to kill the Time Mage, and to disable Gafgarion in any way possible - hit him with Don't Act or Stop, or break or steal his sword.

[Rei]

I used Ramza as a Knight, Agrias, a White Mage with Black Magic, a Monk, and a Geomancer. I don't think I was at a high level. I went after Gafgarion with the first three right away. The knights didn't bother me too much because I had counter and they didn't do too much damage. I had the Monk and Geomancer move towards the guillotine and attack whatver target was nearby. The Time Mages missed with all of their Hastes, so I guess I lucked out.

After Gafgarion and the Knights were gone, it was a mop-up operation.

I believe for this battle I had Ramza as a Knight with his all poweful Squire Skills. Agrias, As a knight with all holy sword skills learned (i'm not sure if I had her using knight's skills or samurai skills... I think it was the samuria because you can get a couple katanas by this point). Then I had a black mage, with math skills - it let me put all the enemies to sleep (all of them) - made it real easy for my ninja with thief skills to steal Gaffies weapon Taking out his weapon is a must for this battle. I also had a dancer with the math skill I could have used - but as it was... it was over kill. They never had a snow flakes chance in hell.

This battle was pretty easy for me. I useualy have Ramza as a Lancer with
-Jump
-Guts
-Hamedo
-Two Hands
-Move+2
If your having a hard time leveling up all you need to do is go into a Random battle and kill all but one enemy and charm it or something or just let it hit you but dont kill it and have everyone that knows acumulate just keep doing it untill u have a large amount of JP or gain as many levels as u want Its up to u.

Going into this battle I had Ramza Lancer, a Monk, Chemest, Summoner, and Agrias. The reason for the lancer is so you can kill Gafgarion as faast as you can and with two hands you can take alot.
First I Kill Gafgarion. The rest you can kill in any order but I suggest you kill the time wizards as fast as you can. But Gafgarion must go first or you can play around with him and steal his blood sword and watch him run around and save him for last thats always fun...

[AaronD]

Agrias with Lightning strike is the best...save up for it and cast on the mages hopefully u will silence them...i usually take out the knights near the execution spot with gaf...they deal lots of damage so kill them off first

[Jolts]

Easy, just equip Agrias with a Chaos Blade and...oh wait...you'd have to cheat for that. Nevermind, don't cheat, that's bad .
:strut: :shoot:

[cheer]

uhm me i made ramza , a monk, go after gafgarion -to quote a walkthrough author, "gafgarion without his sword is like a martini without an olive >D", then a summoner to cast titan/ramuh on peeps on the ground with a knight to protect him. Agrias and Mustadio traversed the area and killed the annoying time mages on top, Agrias also backed Ramza and the summoner up with her ranged sword skills while making her way to the mages. Mustadio, after killing the mages on top can pick everyone else off.;D

[Catman]

i too have stopped there... ramza is at level 24 but he deals only 32 damage to gafgarion! i once won, but everybody except from ramza died and he was at 10 life... My avarage level is at 18/19, is that ok? i don't have any good mages.. only knights and an archer.

[gotenks_2322]

just turn everyone into monks. leave them like that for the rest of the game . This place was a breeze considering the knights couldnt hit(hamedo), and gafgarion was made short work of(earth fist from each monk). i think i cleared this place with my highest character being 6 lvls behind their lvl. monks rule! :rock:

[Dark Falken]

I had a little difficulty with this one too. I ended up sending everyone up on the wall right away. This meant I could chew on the time mages and control who could get up there by blocking the two walkways. Gafgarion was my only real problem as he can target ya up there. Most of my people can use Phoenix Downs, so I was able to keep my team alive. Eventually we were able to wear down all the other enemies and then, with everyone dead, we were all able to concentrate on Gafgarion. It was a nasty fight, but you can do it without having to level way up if you use the wall to your advantage and be sure to take out the time mages as soon as you can.

I hope that is helpful to someone.

Making a monk to handle Gafgarion is a pretty good take. He Dark Sword you, you chakra and run. I highly recommend a monk. For me, Ramza makes a pretty powerful monk.

[-N-]

1. Disable Gafgarion. Obtain a thief with the appropriate Zodiac sign for best results.
2. Disable Time Mages. Height+Prime Number works, or Agrias's Stasis Sword or Lightning Stab, and pray for a Stop or Silence bonus.
3. You must have high damage characters to mop up the remaining battles. I had a Monk with Two Swords and Revive, a Ninja with Guts, and a Minitaurus my most recent time through, and thoroughly destroyed the battle. Of course, the Calculator and Thief helped too.

[Ramza-Chemist]

well i beat it using

1st squad: Ramza(monk), Calculator, Bard

2nd Squad: Lancer, Ninja

i was like 8 levels higher then i should have been here...so the first thing i did was hit the archer in the little wood box thing with the ninja dealing about 120 dmg. Then i sent Ramza off after Gaffy to deal some dmg. Lancer with the steal skill charmed one of the archers for me. The bard was using battle song cause Ramza/monk+battle song=GG then the calculator did exp forgot what number and turned 1 of the time mages into a frog. From here things got easy. I had the calculator next use Paralyze(Oracle) and it worked on all 3 knights and Gaffy. jumped gaffy and punched him a bit. Ninja got taken out due to low hp but ramza brought her back with a good ol pheonix down
as you can tell i was using a weird group of people, its cause ive beat the game before and now im just messing around


so my advice is....get at least 5 levels higher then you need to be. Dont Act/Dont Move to either gaffy or the knights. quickly remove time mages using Magic/Charm/Silence. The archers wont really prove a problem...id just leave the be unless they get annoying and then you may want to Charm/Kill them.


hope that helps a bit
