Details

Black Waltz 3 doesn't counter Vivi's magics, unlike Black Waltz 2, and is for the most part an easier battle than the previous one. Black Waltz flies into the air after recieving a physical attack and uses thundara on the whole party.

Moveset

Black Waltz 3 uses the three mid tier black magics (Fira, Blizzara, and Thundara). While airborne, Black Waltz will keep using Thundara on the whole party.

Strategy

Have Steiner and Vivi keep on using magics while Zidane steals equipment or uses potions to keep everyone's HP high.
