Equip: As many status covers as possible, also elemental-weapons like Coral ring and Madains Ring, they make you absorb from Blizzaga and Thundaga. Auto-Regen is also very useful in here
If protect and shell cause you a problem, I’d succest to take Eiko to your team. She’s useful white mage, she can take care protect/shell problem with Dispel. She also has Full Life, which is also is very useful skill. Plus, without Necron’s shell, and with Boost, her Madeen can cause 9999 damage with each!!! So, think about it!!! And you get little more time if you equip Guardian Mog.
You can also use your Dark Matter if you haven’t used to it. If Zidane has Ultima Weapon, cast Berserk and let him attack. Otherwise let him attack ‘normally.’ Put every possible status cover you can, so you’re safe from that attack…(sorry can’t remember it’s name anymore). With Vivi, you do right, let him use the powerful flares and meteors. Don’t know about Steiner, since I haven’t never used him in the final battle, but I succest you do right.
Don’t loose you nerves, the ending is worth of it!!!
Tell if it worked ok? 🙂
Having Vivi cast Flare(I wouldn’t worry about Doomsday, as it’s more trouble than it’s worth.), along with Steiner equipped with either preferably Ragnarok, or at the very least, Excalibur, will also do big damage to Mr ‘lord of Nothingness’. With this, your party should have no trouble putting Necron away reasonably quickly. Just watch out for his super move, Grand Cross. This doesn’t do any physical damage to your HP, but will hit all of your party with three or four random (and very nasty) negative status effects, like poison, mini, petrify,slow petrify, death sentence, trouble, berserk, undead,and instant death. Undead, death sentence, and instant kill are the most annoying to deal with. Just make sure you have a white mage in your party (ie Garnet or Eiko), so they can ressurrect any KO characters.
Other than that, you should be able to defeat Necron with not too much trouble(he has around 60 000HP if I rememeber correctly), so, just keep you party healed, destroy Necron, save Gaia, and enjoy the awesome ending!

I’d also use Garnet’s summons like Ark and Bahamut (boosted of course). Having everyone at least level 70 will also greatly help your chances of survival. Equip Auto-Regen on EVERYONE, therefore, if your party is close death, just have Garnetsummon Ark, then sit back and watch the HP steadily fly in as ‘Mr Mecha’ deals out some incredible damage (As much as 9999 HP, if Garnet’s magic power is high.

"Starkle, starkle, little twink. Now it’s time that you guys sink!!!" Gilgamesh, trying to taunt your party with a twisted revision of ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’, FFV. exact same strategy i use…. he wasn’t easy, but i defeated him using my classic reflectx2 spell on my own characters then using doomsdayx2 when vivi gets trance….pretty powerful shiznit…..:D
he was soooo simple, you have no idea
(the only thing that was strenuous was the length of time it takes to beat that weird thing… -oh, and where’s his legs!? nothing but a bunch of rings and…)
but i’m usually one to level up all my characters to the max and have just about all the ap stones to cover up every ability.
you might just want to make his level meaningless by taking the time to train your troops hard 😉
(besides, it feels good to be invincible:p )
-later on, you’ll find that ozma is harder to beat than any boss battle in FF9… but then again, it only SEEMS hard, it’s

(oh wait, that seems a little… errr… you take that message in any BAD way, then you’ve got a sick mind… **tries not to think about it** i can’t think of any other way to phrase that and i don’t want to dwell on it, so, i’m going to leave that one alone and hope you skim through this message very briefly and sneeze when you get to that line so you can read from the next one on…)
well, i have to make this short because you guys need room in here too…
>_<
(oh man…)
Zidane: Theievery or Regualur Attack (whatever does more)
Vivi: Flare (2x in Trance)
Eiko: Holy (2x in trance) or Madeen if you need more health (auto-regen)
Steiner: Shock or Climmhazzard or Flare/Doomsday Sword
Garnet: summon Bahamut, Odin, or Ark depending on your situation
Freya: Jump or Dragon’s Crest/Breath
Amarant: Throw ALL you good things or use No Mercy
Quina: Frog Drop, attack, or cure
Have Steiner use Shock if you hve it (can’t go wrong with 9999 every time). Vivi should use Flare and other powerful spells. Don’t use Doomsday unless all of your characters have something to nullify or absorb the Shadow damage. Have Zidane attack of course. Garnet summoning isn’t the best idea. It might do a lot of damage, but you might want to save the MP for healing.
A little off topic, but why do you call Necron Mr. Gaia Creator Destroyer and not just Necron?
Maybe thats why Necron was sooooo easy for me:cool: .
bosses on the second disc were harder than him. i was disapointed because i do love a bit of a challenge. jesus the power of life and death must not be very strong if i can beat him easily on lvl 55.
my team was zidane – attacks and trance
amarant – throwing thing
garnet – summons
vivi – magic and trance
Abilities are the key to success in this game. you don’t have to be that strong just earn loads of ap and get the key abilities such as summons, auto regen(on everyone)
thanks

I used: Zidane ( Skills and Trance- Use Grand Lethal if you trance!) , Dagger(Summoned Odin and Bahamut ), Vivi( Used Meteor, and Doomsday ), and Armarant ( Chakra -use on party member…I would get him to trance…- tell you how to do that in a minute-..I would use Aura when tranced to give auto-life to all character and then use Doomsday with Vivi…cause it will kill you character but if you have auto-life equipped they will come back at hp 1 which I had the AP skill that made them gain HP and the point of using Aura if they have auto-life anyways is in case Necron kills them before they build their HP back up.
Characters Level should bein high 50’s or low 60’s or anything higer than that.
1: Try to have your party have ALL AP skills equipped
2: I have equipped your strongest Weapons
3: Get your party’s trance guage in the middle that way when you fight Trance Kuja the meter will be almost to trance when you fight Necron
4: When Zidane trance..Grand Lethal every round he has trance
5: Dagger sgould Summon Odin and Bahamut when she trances summon Bahamut so it will automatically use Mega Flare
6: Vivi should Cast Meteor and Doomsday, when he trances use Meteor for both attacks
7: Armarant should Have Chakra so he can give your party Hp and MP incase you are low on Elixir and Ether..he should use revive and character if they are dead….and then use Aura on them ASAP! If he trances……..use Chakra and Aura on pary..curse and Demi Shock on Necron..
Then get ready for a well desrved ending!
beat him first time:rolleyes:
Also use stuff that counters Abnormal Statuses.
But when I got to Necron, it was all easy because I had Excalibur II and Ultima Weapon, so it was just a few normal attacks for me and he was down for the count.
Hope you beat him.
When you are down to two characters or fewer, Necron will always use that Blue Whatever move that reduces a character to one hp three times in a row, then Grand Cross, then Neutron Ring. As long as you have enough life to survive Grand Cross and Neutron Ring, you never have to worry about dying unless you have horrible luck with Zombie and Mini status effects on your characters.
Basically, let Necron kill all but two of your characters (note: one of them must be a white mage). Basically this means don’t heal two of your party members when Necron does Grand Cross. I left Steiner (with Shock) and Dagger alive.
The next three moves, Necron will use that Blue Something move and reduce a character to 1 hp. *Don’t heal the character yet!* He will still cast that spell two more times, so if you heal yourself chances are he will just knock you back down again. Instead, this is the time you want to use both character’s most damaging attacks. Be careful though, because as soon as Necron casts that Blue Something spell the third time, you need to multicast Curaga in preparation for Grand Cross. After Grand Cross multicast Curaga in preperation for Neutron Ring, and then repeat.
If for any reason one of your character’s dies, get them back to life during the Blue Whatever phase, and then if you have enough time use your damaging attacks.
Since I have never seen shock do less than 9999 unless the monster has protect on, you can usually kill Necron after repeating this strategy about 3 times (less if your white mage can do some decent damage with a summon or Holy).
If you have killed enough dragons, you might want to use Freya’s 9999dmg dragon move instead of Steiner’s shock. The one advantage of this is that Freya’s does full damage even if she is mini-ed, which basically means only horrible luck with Zombie status can kill you.
Also note that you can do this with just regular attacks or other techniques, (minus strike might be good considering you will probably be sitting at 1hp for a good portion of the battle), the battle will simply take a while longer.
you must be pretty retarded if you think necron was hard. i actually couldn’t believe he was the last boss. i didn’t realize he was the last boss until i saw the last fmv. my friend who was beside me as i was fighting necron was askin me if he was the last boss and i said " no, i’d say there still a bit to go cus it was so easy.

Why are you calling you some one retarded when Necron isn’t even the last boss you twit! Ozma is and it is at level 99 It is a shadoow, flying bubble looking thing. The hardest boss in the game is Ozma….
