Each of the stages — beginner, intermediate, and advanced — has five bosses to defeat. Since certain teams and strategies are better than others, this guide will provide you with the best compositions and abilities to use so that you can rush through all three levels in no time.
Boss Rush Beginner Team Comp and Abilities
The beginner level of the Boss Rush event is extremely easy to win if you use the following team composition:
Paladin Cecil Warrior of Light Lenna Cloud Benevolent Beauty Rem Galuf
Use the following abilities on each of the five bosses, and you should be able to kill them instantly in a single round:
10000 Needles — Damages all enemies Crazy Day — Deals unmitigated magic damage War Goddess Insignia — Boosts attack damage and LB damage Yin Yang Dual Hand — Boosts attack, magic, and equipment damage
Boss Rush Intermediate Team Comp and Abilities
The Intermediate level is slightly harder than Beginner difficulty, but not by much. If you use the following team composition, you should have no trouble:
Wizardess Shantotto Lunafreya Kryla Elena Malphasie
Here, each boss requires a slightly different approach, so we’ve broken things down a little differently.
Apocrypha and Grief Witch. Use the Double Oracle and Beonevelence of the Gods buffs at the start of the fight. Neither Apocrypha nor Grief Witch will be able damage to you. Evil Drake and Peryton. Use the Magic Wind attack against Evil Drake and the Physical Wind attack against Peryton. Abaddon. Use the Twilight and Blade of Crystal abilities. Bomb Family. Use Ice Damage against Mom Bomb and Fire Damage against Dad Bomb. Quick Roper. Use the Trident of the Oracle ability to refill your MP. Then, use Calamity Brew to finish it off.
Boss Rush Advance Team Comp and Abilities
The advanced level of Boss Rush is, unsurprisingly, the hardest. You can only take one team for the entire stage, but consider the following team compositions for each of them.
Elafikeras
The best team composition against the legendary stag Elafikeras is:
Tidus Explorer Aileen Barbariccia Roy Basch
Use these abilities to quickly kill Elfikeras:
Toxic Rain — Inflicts the disease status ailment Quick Final Thunder — Inflicts lightning damage Mechanical Heart — Increases HP and counter chance for physical and magical attacks Wind Magic — Inflicts wind damage, the best magic damage ability against this boss
Iron Giant
This boss has no elemental resistances, but their physical power is great. For this boss battle, consider this team composition:
Lila Pure Summoner Rydia Maritime Strategist Nichol Basch Heavenly Technician Lid
Besides using damage boosters in this fight, it is also important to use defensive abilities, such as:
Clear Veil — Increases resistances to all status effects Heroic Stance — Increases all magic damage and resistances
Iron Giant is very weak to magic, so use any magic chains you have in this fight.
Calcabrina
This boss fight has two phases, so you’ll need a lot of mana regenerators for your team. The following is a good composition:
Heavenly Technician Lid Trance Terra Ace Hyoh Orlandeau
Calcabrina uses mixed styles and attacks. Use these abilities to defeat her:
Super Analysis — Decreases magic and physical attack, as well as resistances, on one enemy Full Magical Activation — Increases all magical abilities for three turns Top Hand — Restores health and mana Phantom Blade — Increases all physical damage
Glacial
This boss fight starts with heavy pre-emptive attacks, so consider heroes that are immune to the Paralyze effect, such as:
Agrias Orlandeau Mystea Wilhelm Ayaka
Glacial is extremely weak to fire damage, so use these abilities to quickly kill this boss:
Divine Ruination — Combines fire and physical damage D Sword Crusher — Deals devastating physical damage Resurgence — Revives all knocked-out allies
Bomb Family (Advance)
This boss fight is the one in the Intermediate stage, but it is much harder. Consider this team composition for the fight:
Basch Yan Sephiroth Lotus Mage Fina Explorer Aileen
Bomb Family is completely immune to all physical damage, so only use magic chains in this fight:
Bell of a New Dawn — Increases magic damage and resistances of the caster Black Materia — Increases magic damage and decreases enemy’s magic resistances Arch Punisher — Increases light magic damage Dystopia — Increases dark magic damage
