Strategy[]
This fight wouldn't be so bad, if there weren't two of them, meaning that you receive two attacks each turn. The worst is when they both use red and black gilas at the same time. They often get the first move, too, so that causes heavy damage before you can heal it. For that reason, I suggest inputting a healing command (e.g. First Aid) even if you don't need it yet, because there's a good chance that you will that turn. Most of your characters should be able to withstand a couple of attacks without dying, but your weaker characters probably can't take a third. Concentrate your attacks on Zyclus, the red one, until you kill him, making the fight a lot easier from then on. I chose him because he uses Blood Brothers to heal Zetrim, so attacks on Zetrim could be futile. It's possible that Zetrim can use Blood Brothers too, but I've never seen it. Anyway, use lightning elemental attacks whenever you can, since that's both brothers' weakness. Also remember to use a Lucky Card during the fight for a massive influx of experience and gella. You get the Mad Goggles for your troubles, too
