Fighting The Rockgagong (And Winning).

quote Vermillion

I have been following a FAQ since day one, and like most of you know, I'm in the Future Arc now.

This is an optional thing I can do but I really want to do it because I would like to get all the trophies for this game. And you can get a trophy called "Gagonged!" when you beat it, so yeah.

Fighting the Rockgagong

Items:
Book of Frugality

You may want to save before giving this a go. Travel to the dungeon "Inside the Rockgagong" and you'll actually be taken to the cliff in the desert just before him. The party is still likely far too underleveled to make a dent in his HP, but thankfully we can use a little exploit. Go into the menu and make a few temporary adjustments to your settings and team lineup: Set the difficulty to the highest available it's not already there, put as many books in the eleth mixer that halves stats as you can, and switch either Cheria/Hubert into the first slot with their Dutiful Daughter/Lover of Lhant titles respectively. Make sure your Accel gauge is full before challenging him! When you're ready, walk up to the cliff and challenge it to a fight.

Now what's special about these two titles is that they take damage that's dealt to you and let you deal it right back to the enemy, provided you don't die. The only problem is that under these circumstances you will 'absolutely' die in one hit. Thankfully if you push R2 just as you take damage from the Rockgagong, you can cancel the death animation and attack him afterwards to kill him instantly. This can actually be done with all of the enemies in the game, but it's considerably more difficult against them than the Rockgagong. If done successfully, you'll get the Book of Frugality and the "Gagonged!" Trophy. Warp to Telos Astue.

What books do you guys recommend before I put in my mixer before attempting this? Has anyone tried to do this yet?
