    Default Brachioraidos is hard. :( (FFIV Advance - Spoilers abound)

    So I'm completely ignoring the old man's warning in the Lunar Ruins and trying to kill one of the damn things. I'm currently using Rydia (Mist Ring for added evade boost with Mist summon), Cecil (no Lightbringer), Porom (Nirvana + secondary healer), Rosa (Primary healer), and Yang (using Hand of the Gods, Dragon Claw, and Discipline Ring). He's killing me really quickly. Should I finish all of the other character's trials, or just switch out my party?

    I also screwed up Rosa's trial and want to know if I can do it again. Or if the reward for doing it is even worth it.

    all this talk about a final fantasy 4 advance makes me very interested in it, but I'm too lazy and have no real desire to look up the differences to see if its worth playing..

    glad I was able to help.

    I think we both got screwed. It isn't possible. All of that ruckus to get a damn Megalixir/Elixir? No way! >_<

    Anyway, you CAN repeat trials! If you want to repeat Rosa's, use Grimoire LA ina battle. Her trial will be opened again so you will get the grmoire again.

    Yeah, I did it again and got the White Ring. Still can't beat that freaking dragon though.

    I tried too. He is just worse than Lunar Odin. Thankfully, you don't HAVE to beat this guy to continue, so meh.

    And hey, how did you get the White Ring? I never seem to do that quest well. I tried thrice; three Megalixirs. x_x

    You have to do it in PERFECTLY, which is a pain. No fights with the Metamorpha, and can't miss a person.

    About Bracioraidos. I didn't test, but I HEARD that he is affected by Tornado! \o/

    If he really is, use Tornado and attack, simple <3

    That defeats the challenge though. I admittedly did use Tornado on the freaking Death and Grudge Puppets though. Those sucked.

    Tornado itself doesn't work on him. But if Tornado from Abel's Lancen activates, it affects the Brachioraidos. xD

    you can kill him hp style, hes got 180 000
    or with the abel's lance (tornado inducing)
    you get the 'hero's shield' as a treasure, which i think anyone can equip (rydia and rosa can wear it)

    It seems that there are a lot of changes in FFIV Advance as to the version that I played on the PSX. (It's my favorite FF game, so I'm thinking that I have to pick it up now!)

    I tried to attack him, but I immediately ran after I discovered that he did 8100 damage to Cecil with Glare.

    the best way to kill it w/out leveling everyone to god-status is to attack with abels lance. of course, you have to do kains super annoying trial, but its worth it to get hero shield (get 4 more after too! )

    oh yeah, what does white ring do? most of the trial earned accesories give people a different option. (im guessing it changes pray or something?)
