Problem wasn't really party set up (though yea I did look up tips on that front as well, and like you said Melia definitely helped), the issue was moreso that I entered the area at about level 68, and she really didn't seem manageable until about ~73. Which wouldn't be much of a problem, but I found grinding took a surprising amount of time. And grinding in that area was just awful, all the easy enemies gave you little XP, all the hard enemies were in areas where you could easily fall down to an acid pool or have another enemy get into your line of sight (even if you try not to, since the fliers have a very large path of travel). It took too long and was kinda annoying, but it's fine. 

It's okay though, I beat her 15 minutes ago. Like you said, with the right party, and with characters leveled up she's quite easy. Everything is really manageable in this game if you know what you're doing. 

I think I killed her in like two hits?  I was max leveled and playing on casual though... it was great!

Yea I'm ashamed to admit I put the game on casual mode for it's final boss. I specifically went out of my way not to do that the entire rest of the playthrough, because I enjoyed the combat systems. Everything was easy before the final boss, even Lorithia once you get to the right levels, but nope, that 2nd phase of the boss just made me lazy as fuck. This always happens with me and JRPGs (except Pokemon obviously), I get to the final boss and get lazy and just want to see the end of the story ... usually late at night after having thought I would have finished the game 10 hours earlier in the day I've cheated not only the game, but myself.

The worst part is my cleared playthrough now has a big green "casual mode" banner on it's save image. Even though I played 99.99% of the game normally. Fucking hell! I swear I might just return this game because of that. This is a defective product! I hate Monolith Soft and absolutely everything they stand for because of this. 

Decent game though. 

Mod Note-  Edited to avoid potential spoilers.  It was borderline, but always err on the side of caution.
