Points to Consider

• Normal attacks are disabled; Magicks are allowed
• Chaos is susceptible to Sap and Slow
• Wind-based attacks are easily dealt with using the Windbreaker item
• Non-elemental attacks are effective-

In-Depth Battle Walkthrough

Chaos is a very difficult enemy although, theoretically, you can beat him even at low levels. One thing you have to consider is that he is within the Necrohol of Nabudis where, at low levels, the enemies feel more like mini-bosses than your garden-variety mob. Second, you have to go through two particularly tough enemies; the Humbaba Mistant, which is negligible as an opponent, and the Fury, which is a REALLY tough boss unless you've significantly strengthened yourself.

Once you've finally reached Chaos, you better have items to counter against Silence and Disable, because these are his default attacks. On top of that, the party is restricted from using normal attacks, so Magicks are your only bet against this Esper. There are also elemental chaosjets accompanying him. A good strategy would be to rain on him with Scathe, since this eliminates the chaosjets fairly easily, as well as deal heavy damage to Chaos. Chaos can also be saddled with Sap and Slow, making this a good fallback strategy should things become harder.

Players can also choose between two routes: use Technicks like Souleater and Gil Toss in case they are inflicted with Silence, or go the Magicks route, using both non-elemental and colored Magicks such as Scathe and Drain and Balance. Items like Knot of Rust also prove effective. As for the damage coming from his Wind-based attacks, Windbreakers have proven effective in dealing with the damage, short of outright blocking it. Keep at him, and he'll be joining the Espers as summons shortly.

Chaos - Benefits of Use

Chaos' Renew and Aeroga spells are a potent combination of offensive and defensive buffs. Renew restores the party's HP to full, while Aeroga is a very strong Wind-element attack. That's not to mention Whirlwind and Tornado, which are already very nice offensive spells in themselves. It would also be nice to experiment with the Esper's offensive skills, as its Tornado attack has damage which is calculated via percentage.
