About to run it a second time here after a first successful run. You can see the team that I used here where it says Gauntlet Survival Squads. The boss does not combo and enter fury mode unlike the JP version.

Before this walkthrough I should note that you should only attempt Gauntlet events if you are properly prepared preferably with multiple spirits maxed at SS, some potentials unlocked, and high level (105-110+).

As for what to do in each round you game plan should look like this:

FIRST ROUND:  Kill order should be center, right, and then left. Center hits heavy uncharged so defeat them first immediately following up on the right since they charge as well. After that stockpile your specials on your team and finish off the left fodder.

SECOND ROUND:  The enemy will have a pre-emptive round where the sphinx will throw up a skill reflect and upkeep it. Do not use skills against the enemy. Instead shield up or emblem up and go after center first and if you have Riverta or another elemental slayer have them go after the right. After taking care of those two charge up your skills again and finish the left fodder.

THIRD ROUND: If you have a delay user use it right now. If you wish to use nukes now would be a good idea to do so. This can be a dangerous round if you don't clean up enemies in time. Go after the center first by having everyone hit it once assuming you have combo and the like. Afterwards use an elemental slayer to finish the center while everyone else goes after the left fodder. You may need to throw shields up or delay again if you are in a corner. Finish the right fodder quickly to move on to the boss round.

FOURTH ROUND: Finally the boss round. Throw up a delay and attack the right fodder immediately. It is a full locking SOB. Kill it hard and kill it fast. Use your nukes to make it quicker. Afterwards attack the left fodder and if it uses a skill reflect don't delay or nuke again until it is gone. Afterwards hope your emblemer is still alive and you don't get panel trolled. If you are still doing alright then this is easy to wrap up. The boss hits for about ~900ish damage every 3 turns. Defeat him and hope for that he drops. Congrats on completing the gauntlet. You need to do this 15+ times if you want to fully evolve him to SS since he has tier evolution like Asmodeus. Don't fret if you don't get 16 copies though. This will come back most likely since it has done so in the JP version of the game.
