Lich

Lich is the first of the four elemental fiends, and the most dangerous boss you have yet faced. He has a ton of HP and no real weaknesses. His Defense and Magic Defense are both very high, so no matter how you decide to attack him, expect it to take a while. Steel and Haste can help you break through his defenses, and Fire3 and Dia3 can deal decent damage when your mages have no better support Spells to cast. Lich will cast a lot of magic, but resists Status so you will not be able to Silence him. Have your White Mage put up Nul Spells to counter the next elemental Spell in his cycle while you wear him down with the rest of your party. It will take a while to slog through 800 HP, but a concentrated assault should succeed. Lich may be hard to beat, but he doesn't have any singular, dangerous attacks. This is a war of attrition, and your best advantage is that you have him outnumbered.
