Roddy Strategy
Target Roddy with Godspeed Strike
Unlike the Picto Ba'al, Roddy can be damaged with daggers. Quickly use all your MP to eliminate Roddy with Godspeed Strike. Once you run out of Mana, use the Gambler's special attack or use Ethers to restore your MP to full and repeat.
Silence Roddy with Beastmaster's Muzzle
Roddy's main source of damage are magical attacks. If you silence him by using Beastmaster's Muzzle, most of his damage will be gone
Capture the Golem for Megaton Punch
Consider capturing the Golem in the Wrecked Institute to obtain the Megaton Punch. It can deal roughly 4000 damage, a good portion of Roddy's HP.
Use Flash the Cash or Body Slam For Picto-Beleth
The Picto-Beleth is immune to all weapon damage. You can use the Freelancer's Body Slam to deal ample damage to it.
Alternatively,. you can use the Gambler's Flash the Cash can roughly deal 1500 damage when leveled up to the early 20s. 2 rounds of Flash the Cash will make quick work of Picto-Beleth.
Use Reflect and White Wind to Defend Against Roddy
Roddy's main gimmick is spamming AOE elemental spells and inflicting status ailments to your party. By having reflect up for everyone, all of his spells and status ailments will be negated.
However, White Magic will also be reflected so it is suggested to have some Undines and Sylphs if you plan to use Reflect in this fight.
