Abaddon has a powerful Mabufudyne Ice skill but only uses it right after gathering Magatsuhi. You can prepare for this Ice attack by Guarding against it. On the other hand, Abaddon has a bunch of Physical skills that he regularly uses, so it would be a good idea to use demons that block or are resistant to Physical.
Abaddon is weak to Electric and Seal. Extend your turns with Electric, and render him unable to use skills with a Seal skill. This will make the fight so much easier, as Abaddon has a large pool of HP.
Bring a healer who can use Me Patra to dispel the status ailments Mirage and Poison, as Abaddon is able to inflict these.
