| text=Rufus is accompanied by a creature known as Dark Nation (Level 18, HP 140, MP 80), who will spend its first four turns putting up a Barrier and MBarrier on Rufus and itself. If you can kill the hound before his second turn, it'll make your life a whole lot easier, but even if you just whack Rufus, you should win pretty easily. One good strategy is to set up Cloud's weapon with an Elemental+Poison combo so you have a chance of poisoning Rufus, but both magic and physical attacks work just fine. You'll have no trouble if you prepare for this fight.}}

A good strategy is to use magic (e.g. bolt) right away to kill the Dark Nation. It should only take 2 hits. He will cast Barrier on Rufus, then himself before repeating the process with MBarrier. By killing it before it has a chance to use MBarrier, Rufus is left open to magic attacks. It should take 4-5 hits to finish him this way versus 9-10 if you let him get the MBarrier (depending on your level, of course.) Regardless, if you also have a restore equipped, he shouldn't be a problem at all.}}
