    This is a story related achievement and will be the first achievement of the game from the start of the game it should take you anywhere between 15 min to 45 min depending on your skill level. Armaros is the 1st boss of the game. I was level 9 when I fought him but you can be much lower than this and still win. When you first land and begin your journey to find and or aid another one of your ships you will follow a map which will eventually lead you to this boss battle. Battle begin when you see and engage with a monster, (that will actually be a small group of monsters to fight). You do not have to fight every monster, you can run around them, but its good to get your levels up. Also I'd say depending on your skill level and your resources on hand I would at least be at level 3 before you fight Armaros. You know you are getting close to Armaros when you find a "replenish" sphere, it basically gives you all your health an MP back up to full. You will then be prompted to jump down on to a beach area. Following the beach will eventually trigger a cut scene where you speak to a lone dying crew member of the ship you came to find and you will be introduced to Faize, who will join your team, this cutscene leads directly into the fight with Armaros. Fighting Armaros you need to be careful, he starts with 4000 hp and won't take a lot of damage, until his "shell" is broken, so keep dodging to it's side and attack its shell. If you have gotten used to using the technique "blindside" then use this as much as possible and also use your magic. (All of this is explained at the beginning of the game) Once the shell is broken there will be a bright glowing spot underneath it. Attack this spot and Armaros will go down pretty quickly. If your looking to get your full 1000Gs on this game take control of Faize after the shell has been removed and a little more damage has been done to Armaros (watch Its HP). Then tell your teammates to stop attacking and use Faize to kill Armaros. (Just be careful as Faize will only be level 3 compared to what level you may have gotten to) Faize has an achievement (Battle Trophies) tied to killing 130 different types of enemies and Armaros is a one of a kind enemy (as is all bosses in this game) there are only 154 different types of enemies including bosses and this is about the easiest boss you are going to get. That said you should then run around this area and make sure you kill all the rest of the types of enemies with Faize that you have already encountered. ( You MUST be in DIRECT control of Faize and get the decisive FINAL hit when he kills enemies for them to count) You know when a character gets the final hit, after the battle they will say their tag line and it will be there animation it shows on the screen.
