        Strategy:
        There are a lot of deciding factors to beat a zodiac boss, but the biggest part of beating it at the lowest possible BR involves a lot of luck.

        First of all lets start with the gems, im using 6x HP, 6x P. Attack, 6x MDEF, 6x PDEF & 6x dodge gems.  
        Secondly having clothing for your main hero will help a lot. Your main hero will be the deciding factor in zodiac battles. (focusing on your main hero with everything, mount training/skills/equipment will make a large difference).
        Third, use the Cancer Aegis skill. Stuns are a lifesaver in  the battles.

                        Battle positions:                                Place your main hero in the back row, preferably on a damage spot.                                Put 3 heroes in the front line, they will all die fast against the zodiacs, but its better than placing 2 in the front line, with 3 they might all get their attack off, whereas with 2 they will probably both die before they can do anything.                                put the 2nd strongest hero of your party in the back row as well. This way your 2nd strongest will be able to hit a few more times.       

        The battle itself:
        The longer you are alive in the battle, the more your angel will hit all the enemies for some good damage. Also if your main hero does some decent damage he/she willl kill some of the zodiac mobs as well.  For this reason  I focus on dodge gems which in my opnion are better than crit gems, you will stay alive longer. For the same reason the Cancer eagis skill, if it hits, it takes a mob out of the running for 2 turns, negatating the damage you would have gotten by a lot which in turn lets you live longer till the next angel round.

        Most of all don\'t give up if your at the boss of a zodiac. If you got defeated try it a few more times. If you get to kill half of the enemies in a fight, than theres a high chance you can brute force your way through by sheer luck. There have been times I lost 99 times but won the 100th... days before I would have a decent chance at beating them otherwhise.
