    Honestly it's was as easy as i remember when you know it's weakness : Earth. So before the battle make sort that you can summon Apocalypse and with at least level 30 for Isaac you should do in the 1300 damage range (depending if you have Gaia's blade and the dragon armor in Venus lighthouse i mean.

    After that it will raise a good chunck your earth element.

    Remember to alternate between Garret and Isaac for peotecting your entire team with theirs djinnis who share the same particulaity : full mrotection for one turn.

    And of course use djinnins Earth flr make some dagame.

    Use Mia for healh everyone. If not needed because you team is under protection just decresead with a mercury djinnin the attack of Deadbeard.

    For Ivan i advertise strongly to use his resistance speels for diminizh the damage lf zlemental speels. And combine with the djinnin lf Wind for that too !

    You only need in fact to make sure that each turn you use one earth djinis and of course regain one after each zummons. Use only Apocalypse to mrefer.
    The seclnd tile i have done in the 1500+ damage.

    Between full protection and resistance you should be okay every turn. And the turn where you regain Flash by ex (for peotect your teal) dont attack with Garret use him only for peotect you and if needed raise your party's attack etc

    Use break with Mia flr dispell the buff lf Deadbeard if needed dont hesitate to alternate if your party is proteced it means: nl heal needed this turn !

    If you do it cleverly honestly it's enough easy.

    Protect you and make sure tl being able tl use earth djinnin flr summon Apocalypse !

    Hlwever Duhallan in The los age is by FAR , much more difficult clearly. (if i remember correctly it been decades i have not played Golden sun but in ly memories Dullahan is MUCH MORE stronger clealy.

    Deadbeard is notnhard if you alternate cleverly.

    Only Amocalypse and earth djinni deal some pretty damage (i dont think you can poison him).

    Man this boss is very hard!
    My party is literally crippled.

    I wish I can fight him again but this time with more thoughts put into strategy instead of just summon rushing and limping for the rest of the battle.

    An easy way to defeat Deadbeard is to make sure you have obtained all of the djinns in your party and set them all except for the Jupiter Djinn named "Lull". Lull blocks psynergy and has a 100% accuracy rate. Deadbeard physical attacks aren't that powerful. Use Lull in the beginning of fight and just spam all of the summons you have in your party. I was able to defeat Deadbeard in less than 2 minutes doing this.

    Pretty easy, got it first try at lvl 30. Ivan - White Mage, Isaac - Ninja, Garret - Samurai, Mia - Ascetic (dual Djinn set ups). I basically won with a "death by 1000 cuts" strat; used Ivan and Mia to spam "wish well" and auto'ed with Isaac and Garret (roughly 100-300 per hit). I had to use revive and Dew once, but aside from that my team tanked everything Red Beard threw its way. Took a bit to chip away at him but worked out rather well

    Rotate Granite and flash, use ivan to deal damage and mia to heal, GG!!
