Once the Elder Golem is pressured, take this opportunity to use Focused skills like Cloud's Focused Thrust or Barret's Focused Shot to build up the stagger meter significantly until they get staggered.

Once staggered, use strong Abilities to defeat the Elder Golem once and for all.

Use Wind Magic to Deal Significant Damage
