lvl1 Steiner&Vivi vs Tiamat but every time I wipe it gets 30% faster

In vanilla FF9, when the team breaks up to fight the 4 shrine battles in disc 3, you only have to fight the lich with Zidane and Quina. Thanks to the "Four Shrines Revival" Mod by Tsunamods, you can fight the other 3 shrine battles with the party members you sent out there.

The Tiamat fight, although seemingly nerfed, only knowing 2 physical attacks is by far the hardest of the 4 because his swiping claw attack can often hit both members at once causing an insta-wipe at lvl 1. After like 20 wipes, Ultimately, I decided to just build for max evasion, and grind out their trance gauges to burst it down faster, and still after another round of wipes, I finally lucked out with enough dodges to get the kill.

Along with this mod, I'm using the mod, Alternate Fantasy, a gameplay overhaul mod of Final Fantasy 9 changing the combat, enemies, equipment and abilities among many more things, while also largely increasing the difficulty of the game.

I'm also using the "Kupo Heroes Pack" and the "Manual Trance" mod within the Memoria Engine mod launcher to make this lvl 1 run just about possible.
