What I believe to be one of the three possible videos people would like to see, plus where Guts and Auto-Item are sort of essential. The others being Queen Iseria and the Hamsters themselves. I would have loved to show a video where he doesn't use Empress Massacre, but what can you do?

Stats
====
HP: 800,000
ATK: 12,000
MAG: 32,000
RDM: 300
RST: 25
Suggestions: Dark Resistance. Ice/Fire help. Make sure you are using whatever high end SG weapons you have at this point, they all help.

Physical Attacks (12,000 STR):
Staff Strike - 200% as Physical across 2 hits. Can be dodged or blocked.
Ring Toss - 500% as Physical across 5 hits. Can be dodged. Blocking may cause Guard Break and render your character unable to act next turn.
Empress Massacre - 2700% as Physical across 27 hits, followed by a massive hit of 800% as Physical and another 100% as Physical. Making 3500% across 28 hits.

Magic Attacks [(30000 - RST) x Factor)]:
Fire Storm - 200% as Fire
Icicle Edge - 300% as Ice, can cause Freeze
Meteor Swarm - 1050% as Darkness, cast if HP is 30% or less.
Frigid Damsel - 300% as Ice, can cause Freeze

Given the spell list, you do NOT want him to cast Meteor Swarm. Only a person with 90% Darkness resistance will be able to survive it and the most common Darkness resist item is a Mage Robe. Other than that, Gabriel is only capable of single target offense.

Plan
====
The trick: Skip the Meteor Swarm phase. You will have to understand what damage your characters can do and know when exactly to PWS it in a 4 man combo to finish him. Since I used this team a lot to get down to this point, I was able to deduce exactly when to go full force. It also helps when your favorite character is capable of 200k in move across 2 hits!
