I can't beat the 3rd battle with Seymour ( the one where he destroys your entire party with Total Annihilation) and i would like someone to tell me how to beat him. I've tried 5 times and he always kills me in some cheap way.

Level up. :|

lol, if that's the battle that takes place inside Sin, all you gotta do is follow the magic pattern, use a lot of Hastega, use Yuna's NulBlaze, NulShock, NulTide, NulFrost, and right before he uses Total Anihilation just Summon an Aeon and use shield.

It's been a while since I played that battle and I really don't remember very well the exact technique to kill that fool. But what I said should work.

I remember reading somewher that when you fight the seymour after he kills the ronso tribe you actually have a 50/50 chance of beating him Yes I know that sounds crazy. Sorry I can't be of much help but I've only played that game once and that was sometime last year.

Bullshit. There's no 50/50 chance of winning or losing, it always depends on the level of your characters, and how well you know how to use them, thus, the techniques you use against your enemy. I believe I defeated that Seymour in the first try since I discovered at a glance the technique to defeat him, even though I think I lost 3 times before I could beat Seymour at Mount Gagazet.

Spend some time in the Omega Caves. After that, just about everything's easy.

Did you try starting off with all your Aeons OverDrive? That should do the trick. If LuLu is strong enough have her cast her best magic attack inbetween and it probably wouldn't hurt to have Tidus cast Hastaga on LuLu and Yuna and himself. If you want to really make it easy have everybody in overdrive before the fight.

You're talking about Seymour Flux & Mortiorchis right ?
Here's what you have to do...

--------------------
HP: Seymour: 70,000 (3500); Mortiorchis: 4000
AP: Seymour: 10,000 (15,000)
Weakness: None
Steal: Elixer
--------------------

Seymour provides a much tougher challenge this time around. Tidus, Yuna and Kimahri all have the Trigger Command option of talking to Seymour and raising their Strength or Magic Defense.

Use Tidus to cast Hastega, and have Yuna use her Protect spell on everyone. Seymour will occasionally cast Dispel on the whole group, thus nullifying your hard work!

Seymour's Cross Cleave attack can deplete over 2500 HP from each party member! However, those covered with the Protect spell will only take half the damage. Seymour concentrates on a pattern of eliminating characters individually. He will use Lance of Atrophy to inflict zombie on a character. On his next turn, he will cast Full-Life to deplete the character's HP. You only have one turn between both of Seymour's attacks, so use it to administer a Holy Water to the inflicted character. Also, try to Silence Seymour so he can't cast any spells, and don't forget to use Bio.

When the Mortiorchis begins to charge up for Total Annihilation attack, it will perform it in two or three turns. One of your characters needs to perform an attack that will reduce all of Mortiorchis's HP. This causes the chariot to siphon more life from Seymour and delays the attack somewhat. It's best to bring Auron and Lulu at this stage of the fight. Seymour also starts using Flare spells, so cast Shell and Protect on your party members. After surviving the Total Annihilation attack, quickly use a Mega-Potion to recover. This is when you can start summoning your aeons to help finish off Seymour. Each aeon will only get in one shot, so make sure it's in Overdrive mode!

Even with all these pointers, there is still a certain element of luck to surviving this battle. Make sure your characters are all adequately protected between each of Seymour's turns.

BTW, this is from the strategy guide.
Good luck and don't hesitate to ask for more help !

Sorry. That's just the way I express myself. Didn't mean to offend you or anything (But now you know what you read was bullshit )
