Strategy
The TimeSage is accompanied by two side winders. They are lined up like this:
- Side winder
- The Time Being
- Side winder
At the beginning of the battle, The Time Being casts Magic Back, instantly reflecting magic back to the caster. When this spell wears off, it will recast it. As such, magic won't be effective against this boss. Plus, to make matters more frustrating, the side winders use the Time Sands at various times during the battle, resetting the fight back to the beginning. As such, the side winders must be defeated first. Then, focus on The Time Being. The Time Being has the Blazemore spell, which is devastating if the party isn't equipped with fire reducing armor like the Platinum Mail that can be bought in Litorud. Also, it can use Flash to lower the accuracy of your party.
First, deal with the side winders and then pound away using the party's most powerful attacks. Give Maribel the Bless Staff and let her heal the party. Once the side winders are defeated, the fight becomes much easier.
