Greater Sphere changes its elemental weakness similarly to Spherimorph. The optimal strategy to beat Greater Sphere however, is by using Multi-hit Overdrives. Every Overdrive will be countered by Hydraulic press however.
| Armour | Auto-Protect(Ovedrive Strategy), Auto-Shell(Slow Strategy), andAuto-Haste. |
|---|---|
| Stats | Max Stats (Specially Magic Defense if you plan to use the safe strategy) |
| Weapons | Celestial Weapons |
| Abilities | Entrust |
| Hydraulic Press | Deals fractional damage to all your party members equal to 15/16 of their maximum HP. It also uses this move as a counter attack to overdrives |
|---|---|
| Black Magics | Ultima used as a counter attack against normal attacks |
The safest(and slowest) way to defeat Greater Sphere is to have a maxed out Magic Defense stat and keep attacking Greater Sphere. Doing it this way will make Greater Sphere counter with Ultima which will deal around 900 damage to a party with max magic defense. The animation of Ultima is long however so this will take a while.
Immediately cast protect on everyone then use offensive Multi-hit Overdrives (not needed if Auto-protect is equipped). Hydraulic press is a physical attack meaning its damage will be reduced by protect. This will allow you to use 2 Overdrives without dying to both Hydraulic Presses. Cure everyone then repeat until Greater Sphere falls. Using Entrust is also a good choice if all the buffs have been used already so you can just give your supporting character's overdrive to Tidus or Wakka.
