Phases:

- Phase 2 (Post-First Stagger): Bahamut gains new abilities like Radiance and Dashing Shots.
- Phase 3 (Post-Teraflare Charge): Bahamut unleashes more powerful versions of his attacks and introduces Gigaflare and Celestial Foundry.
Bahamut Phase 2 Attacks:
- Wing Shockwaves: Three shockwaves fired from his wings. Dodge through them.
- Aura Burst: Gathers energy for an explosion. Move out of the circle. Post-stagger, stationary lasers are added.
- Supernova: A large energy orb that follows you. Avoid it while performing other actions.
- Megaflare: Homing projectiles. Use mobility to dodge.
- Light Dash: A direct dash attack. Standard dodge required.
- Sweeping Lasers: Three horizontal and diagonal lasers. Dodge through them or potentially above. Golden variation exists.
- Dashing Shots: Fires energy projectiles after flying to the sides (post-first stagger). Easy to avoid.
- Radiance: Two tiers of rotating lasers. Dodge through them as they approach.
- Satellite Lasers: Satellites fire lasers. Keep moving and watch for the targeting sight.
- Gigaflare: A fast, tracking beam following Satellite Lasers. Requires a Precision Dodge.
- Celestial Foundry: Fires lasers from multiple sights covering most of the screen. Use Lightspeed to get behind Bahamut.
- Teraflare: A charged attack requiring you to deplete a bar. Lasers rain down during the charge. Use Brimstone and Spitflare to damage the bar. Depleting it stuns Bahamut.
Strategy:
- Maintain aerial mobility to dodge attacks.
- Exploit openings after Bahamut's major attacks, especially Gigaflare and Celestial Foundry, to deal damage.
- When Bahamut charges Teraflare, focus on damaging the purple bar using abilities like Brimstone and Spitflare to interrupt the attack and stun him.
- Utilize Precision Dodges for attacks like Gigaflare and potentially Celestial Foundry.
- Use Lightspeed to reposition behind Bahamut during Celestial Foundry.
