* {{~t|Paradigm|Tri-Disaster|rav|rav|rav}}: Switch to this paradigm after getting in a few hits with a Commando or Saboteur (so the bar doesn't fall quickly) and you'll stagger the enemy in no time. You can go straight to this paradigm if the enemy's chain resistance is low enough, and it may be better for you anyway against an enemy with status weakness if you don't want to wait for a Synergist to buff your Commando with an En''element''.

* {{~t|Paradigm|Undermine|rav|sab}}: This is a great paradigm in the chapters where you only have Sazh and Vanille. Vanille can debuff enemies making them easier to kill, and at the same time prevent the stagger bar from dropping.

* {{~t|Paradigm|Mystic Tower|sen|rav|rav}}: This is a great paradigm to quickly stagger a tough enemy who would otherwise be doing your Ravagers too much damage. Be sure to begin the battle with a Paradigm containing a Commando or Ravager to slow the chain gauge.  
* {{~t|Paradigm|Mystic Tower|sen|rav|rav}}: This is a great paradigm to quickly stagger a tough enemy who would otherwise be doing your Ravagers too much damage. Note that without a Commando to direct them, the Ravagers will target different enemies, so this is best used on a single enemy.
* {{~t|Paradigm|Offensive Screen|sen|com|com}}: Use this paradigm to have your Sentinel soak up damage from enemies, leaving your Commandos free to do massive damage and use Blindside.

* {{~t|Paradigm|Strike Team|syn|com|com}}: Buff your Commandos to do extra damage and elemental damage. Note that the Synergist is first in the paradigm (meaning the party leader), so you can direct who gets what buff to avoid the AI buffing with defensive enhancements.
