Strategy

Use trigger commands

You can have Yuna, Auron, and Tidus talk to Seymour at the beginning of the fight to increase their stats. Talking to Seymour raises Yuna’s magic defense and Auron and Tidus’ strength.

How to defeat Seymour Natus

The Mortibody assists Seymour by removing all positive status effects from the party. These include NulAll, Shell, Protect, Reflect, Haste, and Regen. The Mortibody will start the battle by casting a basic elemental magic spell. Seymour will then follow up by double-casting that spell’s level 2 version.

A good strategy is to come into the fight with all aeons at full Overdrive. Seymour will banish each aeon, though you will get at least one turn to unload on him with each aeon’s Overdrive attack. This allows you to deal massive amounts of damage to Seymour in a short amount of time.

If Seymour is still alive, you can further your preparation for the fight by having all party members at full Overdrive gauges as well. You can recover from Break status by having Rikku use Al Bhed Potions before the Mortibody uses Shattering Claw. To stack even more damage, have Lulu cast Bio on Seymour.

Steal Tetra Elementals

The rare recovery item Tetra Elemental can only be stolen from Seymour Natus and Master Tonberry. Make the most out of the encounter and obtain one from the boss.
