Strategy
Use Rikku’s Hyper Nul All to Apply Luck x5 and Cheer x5 (the other buffs don’t matter). If your Luck is in the 90s, you can also use Jinx on Bahamut to reduce his Luck. Make the character with Counter attack use Sentinel everytime that character’s turn is up. Block Dark Bahamut’s Megaflare with an Aeon. Using Auto-Life is not recommended as it will force you to reapply buffs which will take time.
Make sure to count the number of counterattacks your character made. Once Dark Bahamut has been hit 40 times, switch kimahri in and use Self-Destruct to finish the fight with a bang.
