What's an S-Craft achievement

[Indio Solari]

Just wondering where exactly i don't have to use em for the achievement, is it all 4 final fights including richard? is it just the robot phases? is it only the final phase of the robot?

I'm fairly sure it's only the final phase, after Cassius has shown up to save the day and you're just going for a victory lap, as it were.

But it doesn't matter much, as you shouldn't be using S-Crafts at any point during the final battle gauntlet; there are far more efficient ways to beat every phase of this fight.

I don't remember individual fights, but the game doesn't usually give you a strategy guide. So, I fought every battle by throwing as much damage as possible at them, hoping to wear them down before they took me down. And this, most certainly, included S-Crafts. I saved them for bosses.

Basically, the most efficient strategy is to bring your best casters, use Clock Up Ex to speed everyone up and Earth Guard/Wall to protect everyone, while using Soul Blur (or White Gehenna for multiple targets) to do damage.

Supposedly it's the last phase of "robot part" of the final boss fight. It's not rly a phase but it's framed as DPS check since he doesn't fight back and whole thing it's framed like you have limted time.

I personally did entire boss fight - every phase without S-crafts just to be sure. It's possible but it makes boss fight ~45 min. slog until you take away it's ability to spawn ADS.

i should confirm for anyone here, it is absolutely just the last cinematic phase, you can use s-crafts in all the ones that are actual fights
