you can do it
heres a few tips for you on expert mode
his 1st 4 health bars is easy peasy (i can beat em without bein hit once) just stay near him and when he gets ready to attack jump then do a double jump then glide in place so you slowly come down above him. before you hit the ground bang a good combo on him and repeat (remember to stay close to him or he will throw you into the air but if that happens quickly use a reflect spell and you will be safe and it will do major damage to sephy =D)
after his 4th hp bar is half gone he starts gettin seriouse. when he uses those dark orbs quickly use a reflect spell. when he stands still get ready to hit triangle cuz hes gonna charge you then bang a combo on him. if he starts running in a circle get near him cuz hes gonna jump right near you and got about 1 seconds to get a combo on him before he does his hearless angel attack. when he uses heartless angel either get to him in time to attack hjim or if you think you cant make it run away and prepair an elixer, use the elixer once he does it and then get ready to hit triangle cuz if hes successfull with heartless angel attack then he will ALWAYS follow it up with his charge move durring his 2nd stage. follow these rules and you can own his 2nd stage useing less then 2 elixers=).
now for his final stage. when he has 4 and 1 half hp bars left he gets P.Oed. as soon as he uses dark orbs use reflect and always be prepaired to hit triangle (if your in the air when he gets ready to charge you quickly cast reflect before he charges and you wont take any damage!!) if you cant attack him right away get ready cuz he will do another charge attack right away. when he starts flying super fast in a circle around the field jump and fly away cuz if he hits you he will do a follow up combo attack and most likely kill you. time to explain my fav of his attacks=), when he flys into the air and prepairs a metior attack you gotta be fast on this 1. jump in the air and start glideing in a sort of figure 8 movement but stay away from him. when you near a wall turn AWAY from him cuz if you make the figure 8 turn toard him you will get hit by metiors. after about 3 figure 8s he will stop and teleport to the center arena. the only chances for you to hit him durring this is
1. when hes doing heartless angel attack.
2. when hes finnished with his charge attack.
or 3. when he throws you into the air EMEDIATELY cast reflect and you will be hit none or once at the most and the after-affect of the reflect spell will do about 1 third of a health bar worth of damage. continue to follow these guidelines and you will totally own sephy!!!
oops i forgot to say thx to all the ppl that said congratz when i was makeing this little guide so, THANKS!
