Strategy: Astos is a powerful magic-user. He can cast FIR2, ICE2, LIT2, and SLEP. His magic attacks can deal significant damage to your party. Focus all your physical attacks on him. Black Mages should use their strongest elemental spells (FIR2, ICE2, LIT2 if available). White Mages are crucial here for constant healing with CUR2. Consider casting RUSE on your physical attackers to increase their evasion. This is a challenging fight for this stage of the game, so ensure your party is well-leveled and equipped. Reward: Matoya's Crystal.
