The Dreadnought's first form isn't as scary as it looks. While it resists both Physical and Magic damage, Vanille can inflict Deprotect and Deshell easily and even the odds a bit (though the Dreadnought can use Steam Clean to heal Status Ailments). Heal when necessary, but concentrate on staggering the Dreadnought and taking it out quickly. The real fight doesn't begin until after this battle.

Elemental Vulnerability
The Dreadnought's second form puts up a lot more of a fight. It isn't as resistant to damage in round 2, but has a lot more hit points. The strategy remains basically the same, but since the battle will take longer, it would be prudent to have Sazh grant Bravery and Faith, as appropriate, to the party while Vanille inflicts debuffs. Watch out for Wrecking Ball and other powerful attacks, and always be ready to heal. If the Dreadnought uses Steam Clean, have Vanille re-inflict any removed effects. Just the time it wastes using Steam Clean makes these spells more than worthwhile.
