Get Goblin Chieftain and Cloudburst from Archylte Steppe. Their feral links provide many buffs for the entire party. Also get Dragoon from Augusta Tower. It's a great COM monster that takes very little effort to level.

Get any of the chocobos golden (one of best coms in game), green(one of the best meds in game), blue (one of the best ravs in game) they're all easy to get aside from green which takes some grinding. golden one can be found in undying world just google for location same for others. Had all 3 in my party with pack mentality when i took on final boss it helped alot.

what about sen role?

Get Chicu when you unlock advanced Moogle throw. There are guides telling you where to get it exactly, but it's dead easy. Insane Str stat, easy to level, and probably the fastet COM in the entire game. If you can manage to level it up significantly, it may kill you boss level monsters without you ever touching anything.

Other than that the specialised chocobos are usually considered high-tier, and some of the DLC monsters are really good…
(Snow is an insanely overpowered SEN, with him you can tank superbosses without maxing out everything… if you manage to get him, since his fight, like all Coliseum battles, is purely cheap and lame gimmicks with tens of millions of HP and high defence rating.)
But by the time you get and finally upgrade them, you'll be nearly finishing the game anyway.

For an early SEN get any of the pulseworks knights. Either the one from the steppe or the one in the Bresha ruins. Both are early peakers with really good defence stats.

just finished academia mission, is it still long way to go to get the advanced moogle throw?
if yes, what monster you could suggest to substitute this chicu?

because hoplite is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ lazy / slow :|

for sen role you can get silver choco which is really easy to get its like in the academia where you get the mission to retrieve the gravaton orbs you just toss mog at the green projection orb behind hope if that makes sense but you dont really need a sen chocobo for final battle i didnt use one

although we rarely use it, i wanna make army that best in their roles hehehe

thanks a lot for your response

Improved Moogle Throw is one of the first fragment skills you get, freely, when you unlock Serendipity in quite early in the game. Just enter the house on the SW side, next to the roulette wheel, and talk to the woman there.

Also, don't waste Silver Chocobo on such frivolous tasks as being a SEN, since that bird can be turned into a casino coin making machine by leveling it up and with a few infusions, you can win ALL chocobo races with it (and in the first three cups you don't even have to do anything, it will win without any boosts). It is also the safest way to get the Serendipituous achievement.

Those 2 mobs are awesome indeed. Pretty much needed for Gilgamesh (unless you're going for an over half an hour fight).

Chichu is also the best damage dealer. Its HP is a bit low if you go all in on damage, but it's still manageable if you add 30% HP and/or 36% phys./mag. resistance passives.
(I almost infused it at some point for its Pack mentality - what a mistake that would have been).

Chichu is the best damage dealer, but it also takes more time to level if you're looking to optimally build it. That's why I recommend Dragoon instead for a first time player. It can get 600+ strength rating and it levels with really cheap materials.

i will use these momons temporary before getting all of them..
of course i will use my lovely lightning <3

[talgaby]

Neither of them are particularly useful as monsters though. RAV Lightning especially needs a ton of infusions, but then again after infusing that many monsters into something almost anything becomes good. From the Coliseum monsters only a siphon-built Omega Weapon can be viable (the opposite of Chichu: slow as hell but if you create a very specific ability mix, it can have a filled ATB bar constantly) and of course Snow, who can survive like a dozen of the most devastating attacks in the entire game.
