Battle (Second Encounter)
There is a Save Crystal before you approach Gilgamesh, so make sure you buff your party members. First,Gilgamesh has status inflicting magicks, such as: * Lv.2 Sleep * Lv.3 Disable * Lv.4 Break
As you can see, if your party members are at Lv: Prime number, you'll have more advantages while fighting him. If your party's levels are divisible by 2,3, or 4, make sure you set Remedy or Esunaga gambit while fighting Gilgamesh. You can also purchase the Black Belt accessory, which give immunities to Disable. If you have leveled yourself accordingly so that you are immune to all of those spells, Gilgamesh will still waste time casting them, giving you a little time to heal and buff yourself. For a level that's safe to be at when fighting Gilgamesh, basically any level that isn't an even number and isn't divisible by 3 is great.
Now on attacking Gilgamesh, as usual, dispel his and Enkidu's buff and focus your attacks mainly on Enkidu first. Gilgamesh's standard attacks are pretty strong, so do heal whenever needed to. As stated above, if you're party's Lv is set on Prime Number, you'll have more time defeating Enkidu, if not, simply use the Nihopalaoa trick to "Sleep" Enkidu, then Oil it and fry it with Fire Spells.
After defeating Enkidu, make sure you still have Vanish, or Protect status, Gilgamesh's attacks chain often. Every time he pulls out a different sword, dispel his positive status. When about 30% of his HP is drained, he'll use his special attack, Bitter End and has chances of inflicting Sap to all your characters. Once you have drained 60% of his HP, you can steal the Genji Helm, you need to do this before you have drained about 70% of his HP, when Gilgamesh will pull out the Wyrmhero Blade; saying "Quake, mortals! You face the blade of legend!" and erects a paling, during this period, Gilgamesh can be extremely lethal, his attacks has a high chance of chaining up to 15 hits! Basically once his attacks connect, your character is dead, his special attack are replaced by Monarch Sword, luckily, his paling fades after he executes Monarch Sword twice.
After his paling fades, you can steal the remaining piece of Genji Equipment: Genji Armor. Once you have defeated him a cutscene will follow as you leave the battle field (the cutscene varies depending on which character you're using as Party Leader).
