Tellah should have Osmose/Psyche, use that if he's low on MP. Now, what I do, is kill his right arm. Well, as long as you kill one arm, and not both. The one that casts Drain/Vampire isn't a big threat, so probably leave that one alive. Now cast Reflect on one of your party members, and bounce off high-level magic on Baigan's main body, although you should still get in one normal spell. Or you could just go and level up in the Waterway if you're not sure.

^^ that's pretty sound advice.

And DON'T use Twin. It takes too long to cast, uses up too much MP, and you're going to want more than just Tellah for black and white magic. It's best to have Porom heal every turn and have Porum and Tellah reflect Fire 2 and Fire 3 off of one of your own party members.

Yeah, and the 'Mini Flare' or whatever it is can be Reflected back at you (I think.), not something good.

He only casts Reflect after you use magic on him, so use Twin once (and only once) to knock him down quite a bit. Both arms usually die from it, then get regenerated. Have Palom use Black magic to get rid of the arm in the front row. Porom and Tellah heal, and Cecil and Yang Attack the body.

Quake makes this battle a breeze. Fairly high level spell for where you're at and it cannot be relfected. Bye-bye Baigan.

Yeah, too bad that not everyone is going to waste their time trying to get that spell at that point in the game.

I highly recommend getting Dancing Daggers for Cecil and Palom. They can be purchased in the Mist Village. Equip them and use them as items, and you can deal about 350-400 damage, which is quite a bit from a physical attack at that stage of the game. Those will make the fight with Baigan easier.

I'm pretty sure Cecil still does more damage with his normal attack, but I could be wrong.

Giving Palom a dancing dagger is great. You can also find a tiara in Myst village, though you don't want to lose it by forgetting to deequip Porom after fighting Baigan.

Cecils Legend sword should be more powerful than the dancing dagger. Plus im pretty sure you cant get the dancing dagger before this fight because

when you visit the misty village in the begining of the game the summon Rydia uses closes the valley off except by air and you dont get the airship untill you beat the water fiend.

Actually, you just go through the Mist Cave again, and go into the village.

I seriously don't see why'd you be using the Twin's Special...
I thought he was pretty easy...

Porom and Palom heal and cast spells on the arms, let Tellah nuke the body with Fire3 or something once, then let him focus on healing or maybe taking the arms, too...

Yang and Cecil beat on the body...

I don't see the problem in this fight... are you not healing or something? o.O
Sometimes during fights that you're having trouble with, think "Should I heal now, or unleash another attack?" and if you think "yes" or "maybe" or "I'm not sure", heal.

right you are. im so just relient on the airship that i never thought about going through the mist cave pinch.gif . However the trip really isnt worth it because cecil does more damage with the legend sword and palom is more usefull as a spell caster because he only does 30 some damage with the dagger. if you do decide to go the mist village theres a goody hidden somewhere in the village that does make up for the trip happy.gif .

Berserk Cecil and Yang.Leave the White Magic twin for healing and the other twin use potions or...try to attack.If you have quake use it.Tellah should start off the battle with a hard hitting spell like Fire3 Lit3 Ice3...then he attacks or heal.
Cecil and Yang wont be able to choose there targets but the arms will surely die soon,even when ressurected

People won't have Quake or Berserk at that time, unless they did unnecessary power-leveling. And Tellah will only get a few shots of level three spells before he'll need MP.
