Finally, I have beaten Gilgamesh! The only battle so far that I took no pride in clearing it because I have got stuck and forced to using 2 Command Seals.

The next context is my advice is for anyone still struggling with Gilgamesh:

I have only one Lancer that is Elizabeth and one Berserker that is Ibaraki, and they are nearly useless in this battle due to Gil's ridiculously high HP. So I have to go with my have-been-driven-to-the-corner tactic: Sacrificing all my own beloved servants to have the Support Servant became a shinning star.

My team for this is really half-ass:

For the shinning star support, I pick Scathach equipping White Rose CE. I go through first two stages with some damage to her, but managed to keep everyone alive.

When facing Gilgamesh, I immediately switched Scathach for Ibaraki in the very back of the line. Then have George started taunting. As expected, George was killed immediately in next turn (be killed one, and then be killed one more time in the very same turn). After that, Jack came to join the sacrifice.

In that moment, Gil was ready to launch his NP. And you know what? I have further anger him by had Jack cleared all his buffs. After that it was a true hell. Gil launched his NP once, got full charged immediately, and launched NP once more time. All of that in a same turn. Eli, Jack and Ibaraki didn't even have enough time to wrote their will.

All that left were Mashu and Scathach. I have Mashu suicided by taunting Gil. And then the NP locked, buffs cleared, 1,000,000 HP Gilgamesh go on an one-on-one battle with 0 NP, 10,000 HP Scathach.

Stun (from Mystic Code), revive (from the CE), dodge (from skill), and 3 more stun (from NP, in which have 2 Command Seals NP) are what I have done to defeat Gilgamesh. I can't even remember how much critical hits Scathach had made just to lead to the by the skin of teeth victory.

Overall, my tactic here can be understand as simple as this: if your own servants can't done a shit, just kill them off as soon as possible to make way for the support servant.
