There isn't much gear to choose from so simply having the highest defense gear and strongest weapons will suffice.

If you were able to grind heavily, purchasing a Flame Talisman to weaken Horten's fire attacks can prove helpful.

Horten Movesets

Tortoise Kick Damages and delays the target's turn.
Fire Bird Deals fire damage to the enemy and lowers their fire resistance.
Strong Strike Deals high damage but has a low accuracy.
Inner Alchemy Restores the user's HP. (can only be used once due to Horten's low MP)

Horten Strategy

Turtle and Heal!

Horten's damage is on the medium side. With banked turns, he is capable of unleashing combos on a single target. Make sure to keep on using Default and healing injured party members with white magic or items.

As with previous battles, leave the damage dealing to Sir Sloan and the battle will end pretty quickly.
