the magi master IS easy all you do is vanish and berserk as doom doesnt work, he just becomes easy then cuz he doesnt pound you with any massive spells, oh and a note to someone who said about vanish and doom right well there are some bosses such as i think it is death guise or whatever but you can fight him in the air ship, if you vanish and doom him you DO NOT get bahamut.

Ultima is better, the problem with Merton is you have to go out of your way to equip fire absorbing equipment and there ARE better things to equip, being healed as well is no big deal, besides if you REALLY want to be healed it is likely one of your other 3 characters can do it for you plus of course Ultima being non elemental nothing can prevent the damage.
