How to beat Ba'Gamnan (2nd)

Details

Veteran players will remember that Ba'Gamnan is hell-bent on capturing Balthier. For bounty, or because of a wrong done to him, it doesn't matter; he wants Balthier, and he wants the sky-pirate bad. He wants him so bad that he decided to try again by hunting down mark hunters. When he comes across the party, he is still accompanied by Bwagi, Gijuk, and Rinok, while the player has Monid on their side.

Moveset

Bwagi is the main Magick user for the group and will constantly heal and buff up Ba'Gamnan during the battle. Rinok and Gijuk will attack in support and use Fangs to help Ba'Gamnan, respectively. Ba'Gamnan, meanwhile, will try to end Balthier whenever he is in your player party. He will target any character, however, if Balthier isn't in the party.

Gambit

Strategy

This battle depends on whether you want it to end quickly or not. If you want the former, then you should focus all of your attacks on Ba'Gamnan, same as back in Lhusu Cave. This time around, though, it is expected that you're of sufficient level to withstand his attacks and defeat him sufficiently.

If you need to take out the bangaa one by one, however, Bwagi and Gijuk should be the main priority, as they are the spellcasters of the team. The Nihopalaoa + Remedy trick is effective on the group. Shielded warriors are also good allies, as the bangaa do not have an Ignore Evade skill on them.
