Weapon: Ragnarok
Armor: Ziedrich
Accessory: Touph Ring

The battle with the enhanced version of Proud Clod. His physical and magical attack has been raised 25% and his HP has been doubled to 120.000. That means we're in for one hell of a battle.

Proud Clod has the ability to use all his attacks twice in one turn, and one of them (the machine gun) is pretty nasty. A double critical machine gun is bad even for normal leveled characters, so obviously Cloud needs all the Defense he can get. With Back Row, Sadness, Barrier, the Ziedrich armor, a Touph Ring and Defense doubled through four Hero Drinks, we're able to reduce damage to less than 2%. That oughta do it.

That leaves only one problem: dealing damage. You have to heal and use new Light Curtains quite often, so there's not a lot of time to attack. And there's no way to deal a lot of damage either, so the battle takes quite some time. This battle took no less than 28 minutes, but that's still three times faster than the LLNIIENACMO battle. Still, it's not an easy fight. One small mistake and it'll all be over, so you have to stay focused during those 28 minutes.

After a while, he starts sitting down and uses Beam Cannon every 5th turn, not counting the turns spent sitting down and getting back up. Thankfully, Cloud can survive it on full HP, so there's no need to use Lunar Curtains.
