I had a method, but I can't remember it now. Then again, my magic levels were really low and I had to have someone casting magic a lot while I built up my EP and stuff. I'm still really lucky I beat it the first time through. If it had taken two hours to lose I would have cried. The only time it changed form on me was when I had it down to, like, 1000 HP left and I attacked it with a guy and it was rotating and... Dear lord I almost lost then and there.

Yeah, I do, but it's kinda a private one or I would, like, attempt to get people who know Xenosaga well to look it over so that I could get opinions on my Allen.
