I have been having a lot of trouble getting through this game, and faqs out there have been zero help. But Now I'm at the count and his dragon. The dragons pretty easy, I end up killing him after only a couple of full character attacks. But the count is another thing. I use a great strategy, and I use every item sparingly. And I get thousands if not hundreds of thousands out of him, and he looks as happy as ever. I cant seem to get him out. My people are dead, and he's not even drooping because he's low on HP. Any help? Like what stats/lvs. you were, and if you know, how much HP both of them actually have. Thanx in advance. I'll post my three characters and their levels that I'm using.

Jazz-Lv. 35
Frederic- Lv. 37
Allegretto- Lv. 37

Everyone else- Lv. 34 and the guardians are 32.

Well I worked a bunch last night at leveling up. I've got Retto at 39 almost 40, viola at 37, and Jazz at 38. Bit different. I'm going to get a few of them to at least 40 and then try again with a couple character combinations till it all works out.

Now Krunal I don't agree on several things.
I just did this fight (levels below 40) and I have to say I find you dead wrong here, Retto and Jazz are never a "must" in any fight and certainly not here. Actually I find they often suck together because Jazz are too slow and get to move too seldom. That is an extra big problem in a fight like this when you are up against a really fast hard striking enemy.

For this fight switch at least Jazz for a high speed, fast hitting character like Salsa or Falsetto (I used lvl 37 Falsetto) They build chains fast and can execute them often and a good tip here is whenever you see Waltz's turn is coming next end yours with a special that has descent knockback. If he starts his turn sitting on his ass he wont have time for as many hits back at you.
I also recommend the two recovery accessories you should have by now for this fight.

I can only recommend Retto and Jazz together in fights against enemies with very high DEF or good shielding and this is not one of them.

I also have to say most characters actually do have their uses, its just a matter of who you combine them with and playing style.
Well it is also a matter of personal preferences. Personally overuse Viola because I find it rewarding to aim, shoot and score a GOOOOOD long distant hit. For healing others are better.
