I did have to "cheat" to beat Atomos though; basically, I turned everyone into a dragoon and spammed the jump command, effectively avoiding the bosses powerful magic aoe attacks.

Honestly, Final Fantasy IV (hard type) is the only FF game I've truly struggled with. The RNG on the moon is insane, to the point where monsters would crit, and one-shot a full-health party member. I had to use magic to vanquish random encounters, which I only used on bosses in other FF games. There was also the fact that you lost gil for running from battles.
You know that Atmos is way easier if you keep one character ko as he focuses on pulling him/her from one side to the next?
