Battle[]
It is useful to equip the Thunder Spawn Garment Grid to absorb all electrical damage. It is recommended to use a Dark Knight, a White Mage (or Alchemist), and the third character should be either a Dark Knight or a Berserker. The healer should use Protect (or a Light Curtain) and the occasional Cura (Mix Potion + Hi-Potion = Mega-Potion). The Dark Knight(s) should repeatedly attack using Darkness, while the Berserker (if one is being used) should use Howl, followed with Berserk. Water-elemental attacks and equipment, including Waterstrike, are especially helpful in dealing with Ixion due to his Water weakness.
Ixion's ultimate attack, Thor's Hammer, is non-elemental and cannot be absorbed.
Should the player use captured creatures, it is recommended to have their creatures have Lightning Eater and Waterstrike equipped. The Menace of the Deep Garment Grid grants creatures access to Liquid Steel provided they have a physical attack available, which deals extra damage to Ixion. A high-level Adamantoise equipped with this Garment Grid and Total Limit Break can finish him off with one or two uses of Liquid Steel.

Fiend Arena[]
Ixion is an optional boss in the Fiend Arena and is stronger than his storyline counterpart, notably gaining access to new abilities like Critical Attack, Drain Attack (steals HP from one character), and Delay Buster, which damages a character's ATB gauge. To unlock him, the player must capture and finish the storyline of Machina Striker. This will release Ixion and he can be fought in the Battle Simulator. If all eight aeons are unlocked, the Aeon Cup is unlocked.
Machina Striker can be captured in the Thunder Plains with a Trap pod L once Chapter 5 has begun.
