After 3 hours, I give up. All that was needed was 1 attack to kill him and he hit me with a gg meteor. I am probably gimping my damage too much by having Cloud on back line with Draw Fire Shared Soul Break but fuck I don't want to egg someone for 2 MHO.
Finally did it

Congo-rats, Rata!
Amazing. He never once used Fire Blossom on me, though I did get a meteor to the face (did nothing to me though).
Will gear up a PT later and do ULT which should be 'easier'
Ult CM was a joke, now i can stress for FFIV
Grats Rata! Yeah, I'm saving Ult for later as well and I'm not expecting many issues but could take some s/l if I get unlucky at the very beginning.
i don't like your setup rata.
breakdown goes on the left, full break goes on the right.
Also, he has Aerith and Red reversed. Support class always goes in the top slot, and healer always goes in the 2nd slot. Otherwise it looks out of place.

-just want to give anyone thinking of pushing for this who might be newer to the game the confirmation that it can be taken down by a party of 65's with only 1 with RS-Cloud(65) and minimal RS gear/weapons
I ran a full mele group with shout/divine light(sucky-h50)/wall + RW:wall
I kept up the protect/shell breakdown cycle (I don't have full break)
Arc/tyro/ramza/cloud/Pcecil
Some luck but its possible at non 70+ levels etc.
Now I tried a few at final sephiroth and got smashed never got him under 50%.
I've tried both physical and mage teams and always run out of steam around the 25% mark. This shit is annoying; I just want those glorious MHO. :/
Fucking game froze on me with Sephiroth at 25% and my party mostly healed. Came back to a flashing blade and meteor to the face. Luckily Wall hadn't fell yet and Full Break/Power PD were still active after Red ate it. Took another Meteor at about 5% but Memento Mori and Full Charge finished him off.
Opted to wait for a turn, including having Vincent defend after setting up SG to allow Zack to get a 3rd hit in to use Apocalypse for the haste at the start. Let me run Shellga and shared Medica on Cait instead of shared shellga and get a heal off to start the fight. MM/DZ wrecks face and is honestly the first fight where I've been happy to have it.
I think the trick for the CM runs is to take the damage output hit by picking Wall over Shout and hope for a relatively weak mid fight to refresh Pro/Shell/Wall.

At 25% and below, Flashing Blade Ult ignores defense. I only needed one charge of wall and just kept Power+Full on.
