If you've ever played Chrono Trigger, this boss is very similar to the Son of Sun battle. You have to determine which target is the "real" one and hit it to deal damage to the boss.
This is probably the best battle to have a Priest in. Regen can make this battle a breeze. Paladins can also make this battle trivial, since a few Shells will nullify the Nova counterattack. In addition, the Ninja's Swift attack will prevent the counterattack.
This party isn't ideal for this battle, but there are ways to make it easier. Having the Wizard cast Drain instead of attacking normally gives him a chance to restore HP. I'm not sure casting Haste2 actually helped me, since it meant less regen between counterattacks.

I didn't say the Preist was useless, just the 2nd worst class in the game out of a cast of pretty balanced characters, though even that is stretching it.

See, you can't complain about this sort of thing AND say that Priest is useless.

Though having to randomly attack stuff may encourage having a healer in your party, so that may be why there isn't a hint.

I always felt this battle was the most needlessly luck based. I usually attacked the one that struck first, though I'm not sure that helped or I was just lucky.
