What is the easiest way to defeat Exdeath in Final Fantasy 5?

Answer 1

Recommended Level: 44 - 45

Difficulty: 9/10

Preparations

- Create a party of mimes.

- Have three magic users. (Teach Bartz lvl. 5 White Magic. It works, trust me.)
Magic Requirements:

* Blue Magic
* Redx2 Magic (Learned when you master Red Magic. Equip this to one of your character's abilities.)
* White Magic (Level five!)
* Summons
* Time Magic

(Forget Black Magic! Time magic gives off a better source of damage.)

- Have two physical attackers. (Preferably Bartz and Faris.)

- Give one character the ability, !$toss. This will be useful when Ex-Death becomes NEO Ex-Death.

- Master the important classes. (i.e. Samurai, Time Mage, and such.)
Important classes:

Samurai

Mystical Knight

Time Mage

Summoner

Blue Mage

White Mage

Black Mage

Ninja

Sorcerer

- Obtain every summon.

- Have at least 400,000 GP or more with you at the time of the boss.

Neo Ex-Death Battle -

If you haven't done so already, cast Hastega on your party. This will allow time for you to heal your party. Have your summoner cast Golem on everyone, and Bahamet on the boss. (How do you do that? Equip !Summon and Redx2 to one of your mimes.) Have another character heal, and use !$toss directly after.
Have everybody mime that ability until somebody gets injured. After that character is fixed up, have everybody mime !$toss again until Ex-Death is no more.

(Personally, I had quite an experience trying to figure out the proper steps necessary to beat him. He's an extremely difficult boss, and few are able to beat him. If you did exactly as I asked, then you won't have a problem beating him.)

Ooooh! I almost forgot! Make sure that everybody in your party lives. The survivors of the fight affect the outcome of the ending.

Answer 2

Use the Blood Sword, it heals the user when damage is dealt. Don't worry about Exdeath knocking your other characters out, just keep hitting him with the Blood Sword and it should heal for more than the damage Exdeath deals in return.

Answer 3

It easy use holy many times then, you must be at the level 99 so you can win easier.
