It is necessary to immediately switch to Knight for access to Immortality to negate the damage. For attacking, the player should stay in Paladin and either Shaman or Mage—Paladin used to stabilize the chain gauge and Shaman or Mage to build it. He resists physical attacks, so Ruin from Knight and Shaman, or Mage's lightning and wind magic are best to use against him. When Caius is in Ravager stance, he focuses on relentless and swift attacks boosted by the speed-enhancing attributes of Auto-Haste along with gaining Graviton and is capable of quickly interrupting Lightning from executing attacks and landing his own.
He resists magical attacks in this mode; Shaman and Mage's skills, along with Knight's Ruin, will be ineffective against him, but Knight's other abilities will work well.
The player will have to rapidly change between roles to adjust. When Caius is not attacking, staying in either Shaman or Mage is advisable, but as soon as he moves, the player must switch to the Knight role to minimize damage from Caius's combos, or else be sure to have enough HP to survive the onslaught.
At some point the player will be forced to go to the Paladin role to stabilize the gauge. The rapid changing of roles may mean that the player has to stay on the role menu as Lightning is attacking Caius, ready to switch when needed. When Caius switches to Medic, the player has the greatest chance of staggering him, as he doesn't resist anything. When in Medic stance Caius gains Auto-Regen, and thus the player needs to focus solely on attacking to overcome the health regeneration.
The player must go all out with either the Shaman or Mage, perhaps occasionally using the Paladin role to stabilize the gauge. If the player staggers Caius, they should switch to the Paladin role and launch him before switching to the Shaman or Mage role to build up the gauge.
It is recommended to quickly make Caius exit the Medic Stance by relentlessly attacking him as while his Dispelga deals little magical damage, Absolution and Body and Soul will give Caius multiple buffs that will remain after he switches stances and can also remove any Wound damage done to him and restore his health, prolonging the battle and making Caius more powerful based on the buffs he bestows on himself. His most devastating move is the Heart of Chaos that will revive him after he falls if he succeeds in casting it.
Just before his stagger ends, the player must be in the Paladin role and be ready to use Smite. The very second Smite hits, the player should use Legion of One if it is ready. The player should make sure to switch first, or otherwise Legion of One will be a lot weaker. So long as the player is ready to quickly switch roles to Knight before Caius attacks, and they make the best use of his stagger duration, the battle is winnable. The strategy remains otherwise identical to the one above, but at the start of the battle, the player should enter the Conjurer role and use the "Mighty Guard" spell that casts Protect, Shell, Veil, and most importantly, Vigilance.
As Lightning now has Vigilance and is, in turn, unlikely to be interrupted, when Caius switches to the Ravager stance, the player does not have to switch to the Knight role—unless they need to conserve HP. Due to the buffs from Mighty Guard, the battle will normally go a lot quicker. Also, when Lightning is buffed, when Caius switches to Healer stance, he will unavoidably cast Dispelga, which will remove all of Lightning's buffs. It can be negated by switching to Knight and using Immortality, which will conserve the buffs.
As before, the player should cast Mighty Guard at the start. This time, when Caius enters stagger, the player should immediately switch back to Conjurer and cast Aura on Lightning to give her Haste, Bravery and Faith. To build the chain while Caius is staggered, it is recommended to use the Shaman role and cast Windstorm.
Same as Level 5, however, now when Caius is staggered, upon casting Aura on Lightning, the player should switch to the Sorcerer role and cast Chaos on Caius to inflict a number of status ailments so he will take more damage while he is in stagger. Caius's Absolution may make it necessary to cast it multiple times as any of the status ailments will be removed when he casts it.
Same as all previous strategies, but now that "Bladestorm" has been unlocked for the Shaman role, it is arguably the best way to build chain when Caius is staggered; it will render him weak by launching him and the player can constantly keep attacking him.
