Tackle the challenging 'Last One Standing' quest in Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII. Learn how to defeat Omega enemies and clear the Ultimate Lair.

Alright, so you've stumbled upon 'Last One Standing,' huh? This is easily one of the longest and most brutal quests in Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII. It's not something you can just breeze through in a single playthrough, so get ready for some serious dedication. The main goal here is to take down every single 'Omega' type enemy in the game. You'll need to tackle some of them on the Final Day, and for others, you'll need to dive into the Ultimate Lair, a secret dungeon that only shows up on the Extra Day. Be warned: the three specific enemies you find only on the Final Day must be dealt with before you finish the story, or you'll have to start a New Game+ playthrough to turn this quest in to Zanford.

There are two main ways to get these Omega fiends to spawn:

  • First, you can exterminate all the regular versions of a specific enemy species. Once you've cleared out enough of their buddies, the Omega version will eventually pop up in their place.
  • Alternatively, you can head into the Ultimate Lair, a secret dungeon that's only accessible on the Extra Day. This place is packed with various Omega enemies on different floors.

Here's a breakdown of the Omega enemies you'll be hunting, and where you can find them:
