How to beat Giant Cactuar (mission 54) with 5 stars?
I have issues taking down this big cactuar on mission 54 fast enough. This thing keeps hitting me with 10k damage, and I have to paradigm shift to restore health; and I don't get 5 stars because I don't kill it fast enough.
Do you have any good strategy I can come up with to get 5 stars?
Best Answer
DEF / COM / MED easy win
I'm back with an answer of my own.
I just got Snow (Main char for the fight so that leader doesn't die) up to 22k HP, Vanille up to 16k HP, and Lightning up to 14k HP (equipped with the 20-sided dice). I did the entire fight as DEF/COM/MED. Lightning did all the job, after the instant chain and thanks to Genji Gloves.

A good strategy is to use Sazh as the player character and have the allies as Sentinel and Medic all through the battle until the Gigantuar is staggered, at which point they can switch to a team of Commandos and Ravagers.Final Fantasy XIII Video Walkthrough: 5 Star Gigantaur (Mark Mission 54)
