Try to inflict the plague status effect. Plague causes it to lose 10% of its life per turn, and reduces it's RS by 50%, which increased the damage it takes from physical attacks quite a bit. Although you may prefer to just inflict plague and then focus on surviving while its HP is slowly eaten away by plague. I'd recommend using both Sarah and Wendala for the battle, and have them both focus on getting their defense+ auras into effect while also keeping everyone healed.

For reference, plague only comes from using regular attacks with one of a select few weapons equipped. At that point in the game, I believe either an Omen Blade (Random) or Cerberus Jaws (Brussian) would be your only options. If you have a stronger weapon that inflicts plague, then by all means feel free to use it.

This should at least get you to the second part of the battle, unless you're simply unable to survive seven rounds of battle even in full defense mode with auras and heal spells being flung around. If that's the case, then you may just need to bite the bullet and level up your characters a bit higher.

Ah, I forgot that the plague bit had been added to the most recent version of the walkthrough, my bad.

It really is the way to go though. For all the powerful attack items you could throw at it, just inflicting plague on it really does the job by itself. I do know that some people that had difficulty in the past beat it by using a slew of attack items such as the 'gun' item you can buy at the institute on it. Although that was before the plague strategy was discovered, and I think plague is pretty much the end of the conversation when it comes to strategy against the creature. The only thing left is the formalities such as raising defensive auras and party selection, which I already went into. The only other thing I recall is that the creature seemed to be weak against the 'Legend' damage type. You don't have much of a selection of weapons with that damage type at that point in the game though.

If you still can't beat it, I can look into the encounter a bit more. Possibly see if one of the many paralysis-type status effects have any effect on it for example.
