Holy crap, so I maxed out Commando Lightning and then infused her with the recommended abilities for a Commando, and now she is like ridiculously powerful. Like she is tearing shit up, and it's really awesome :P
I keep getting a four-star rating even with Lightning at level nine, so I still can't get the secret ending or COM Lightning. Does anyone have any good tips for getting a five-star rating? (I didn't see any earlier in the thread, but sorry if I missed it.)

I'm trying to think, the first phase with regular Caius is ridiculously easy, I just switch to Knight when he is a Commando.
During the Chaos Bahamut battle I know that I cast Mighty Guard to keep my relatively healthy during the fight, and then just used whichever Ravager role he is not immune to raise his stagger gauge and wailed on him it filled. I used Legion of One at least once per stagger, but if you use an Elixir it automatically fills your Feral Link so that she can use it again so you can fit in two during on stagger.
Yeah, the first phase I can usually finish in about a minute. With Chaos Bahamut, it takes me forever to stagger him, so I can usually only manage it once or twice in one battle; he makes himself immune again as soon as it wears off. That and his attacks usually take out a good bit of my HP, so I tend to switch to Knight to block every time he goes on the offensive and then go back. I guess I could shave some time off by just not bothering and hoping that the Elixir and however many potions I have will be enough.

For both fights, focus completely on offense and ONLY switch to knight when he uses major attacks (For example, switch whenever he snaps his fingers). As soon as the attack is over, immediately switch back onto the offensive.
I managed to five-star both fights without even getting sorcerer.

See, I never switch to Knight in the Chaos Bahamut except when he uses Mega Flare. Otherwise you should be fine, like I made it through at level 6 like that, then level 8 I 5-starred it like I said. So yeah, I suggest taking an offensive strategy, Mighty Guard helps with the damage a lot, like I said.
As for the immunity thing, you just switch between mage and shaman depending on what element he is immune to. I just completely wail on him in one of those, though I do switch to paladin every once in a while to make sure the stagger gauge doesn't deplete too quickly. But really I just stick with those to raise the stagger gauge. Sometimes I switch to sorcerer and inflict him with status ailments when he is staggered too to up my damage.
I just watched this DLC and after seeing the secret ending, do you guys think a FFXIII-3 is set in stone? Would you be disappointed if they didn't make a FFXIII-3?
I know I would. ;A;

I like to see a 13-3 and since the whole cast is alive in the Valhalla turned New Cacoon/Gran Pluse and Lightning awake in the future, all we need is how to stop Caius and the other Fal'Cie in the myth. Plus as this is still the underdog of the FNC series, it needs more love.
