Stats[]
Battle[]
Viral Smoke.
Zidane and Eiko are required party members, while Vivi is unavailable. Meltigemini is weak to Fire and Holy, and is susceptible to status ailments.
Meltigemini's Viral Smoke can inflict Virus, which prevents the party from gaining AP from the battle.
Strategy[]
Quina can cast Bad Breath since Meltigemini is vulnerable to Mini, Slow, and Darkness. However, Bad Breath commonly misses. Meltigemini is also susceptible to LV3 Def-less, which can be used repeatedly. Steiner should attack. Zidane should focus on stealing the Golden Hairpin before attacking. Amarant should throw.
Freya should jump or perhaps use Reis's Wind. If she already has Dragon Breath, she can use it once the party has damaged Meltigemini for a few attacks so it will do more damage than Jump. Eiko should heal with Cura, although she may be able to get in a quick summon attack with Fenrir or Phoenix (Meltigemini is weak to Fire). If the player has proceeded far enough in the chocobo sidequest, Eiko could also use Holy. Dagger should focus on healing or attacking with her eidolons, although her unreliability at this time can make her a hindrance. She could equip the Red Hat to power up Ifrit. Both Eiko and Dagger can use Mini on the boss.
If the party does not have Quina's Bad Breath, using a Tent or two on the Meltigemini at the beginning of the battle can prove useful, as it may spontaneously inflict Poison, Darkness, and Silence.
