Many negative statuses work on this mob, recommend get a Nihoparaoa accessory and a Remedy with all 3 lores learned, you're able to take him down easily even you're at low level (below 30) is no problem as well. Make sure Dispel him before you use this trick. Dispel him again if later he recasts support spells.

Must prepare Esuna white magic and Haste is recommended as well. Set Gambit for curing negative statuses with Esuna, also prepare Echo Herbs to cure the healer in case if he/she got Silence. There's a dangerous move from this mob when it's low HP, Balance. This spell deals damage according to the different of caster's max HP and remaining HP, let say if it cast Balance when it left 2559 HP, and its max HP is 22559, so the result would be 20000 damage! And the amount of damage send to all targets in the area. Either you have to use Mist Knack/Quickening to finish it off before it casts Balance, or sacrifice a character to close combat, and other two characters stay in a distance with range weapon attack, so the Balance would on damage on the close combat ally. Make sure to revive as soon as the Balance has been casted.

This mob only appear during the sand storm. Lot of HP but not that tough, the problem is Ring Wyrm can restore its HP, so even if it couldn't beat your team easily, but you still need to have enough power to kill it as well. Recommend fight this mob when your main team characters are above level 30. First of all, kill off the enemies around, just to avoid them from bothering this long battle. Since Ring Wyrm mostly use its normal attack, and seems to focus on one target normally, so other characters can support and heal, also means Blind works well for your advantage, cast Protect spell on your characters as well.

Prepare some Hi-Potions and Gold Needles, you will need these items for this fight. Kill everything in the North Bank (North-East section), exit and return to find them. Can say they're the toughest hunt of this rank, recommend your main team characters are over level 15. When you return to this section after clearing the monsters, you will probably see Chickatrice
alone. If you have Disable spell (buy from Rabanastre), try send it at the beginning, if it's missed, exit and re-enter for another try. Needless to say, you should defeat them one by one, attack as much as possible before the Cluckatrice has detected your location. It's easier when Lamont/Larsa is in you team.

After story reaching to Phon Coast, camp section, back to Mosphoran Highwaste only you can find this esper. From the Gate Crystal section:
- Prepare some Gysahl Green.
- Activate the South-South Wind Shrine, it's South from the shop.
- Now you can see an exclamation mark in the map screen. Go North-East from the Gate Crystal section.
- Give a Gysahl Green to the chocobo so you can ride it.
- Cross over the exclamation mark to West by using that chocobo.
- In West area, activate the West-West Wind Shrine there, then push down the rock beside can back to Gate Crystal section.
- Activate North-West Wind Shrine which is around the shop.
- Now you can see two more exclamation marks in the map screen, they're aroundWest area, cross over them will reach to the arena.
Can't use item for this battle. He has around 100,000 Hp, always like to cast Reflect. One way to delay him is let one of your character always Dispel his Reflect, so he will keep recasting it back, then use other characters to hit him. Just beware of Collapse/Scathe spell which can damage all your characters,
he know to cast Flare and has absorb HP attack as well. Sometimes, he will build a magic barrier when he was Critical HP.
Since he loves to play with Reflection, if you got some stronge magic like Scourage, Collapse/Scathe, why not you play Reflect with him. Cast Reflect on your party, cast Collapse/Scathe on your party. So now you can see even you're facing an only target, but your spell can strike more then once time on the opponent, depends on how many active characters you have, each of characters reflect one strike of the spell. And do remember not cast Curaja and other support spells on your team, otherwise they will be sent to your opponent,
however, equip Opal Ring for the character who's going to cast these spells can still works as normal. This trick works with other spell which can damage all enemies, and of cause it works on many other enemies, bosses fights which I didn't mention.
