A relatively easy fight with proper gearing. You just need to activate it's special buff (hitting Phoenix with fire damage 4x when it is weak to fire).

Recommended Team
You want all units to have ~60-80% Fire Resist if possible. 30-50% is passable once you get Phoenix to activate it's buff.
| Role(s) | Unit(s) | Recommended Stats/Equipment | Skill Coverage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Support #1 | OlifOrif | Stack some HP/SPR. Add Fire Blade for a faster and safer fight. | MP Refresh, Barfiraga, Full Break (World Destroyer) |
| Support #2 | SoleilSoleil | Stack some HP. You want both SPR/DEF dances enhanced and one offensive dance. | All Stat Buffer, Breaks. |
| Healer | GarnetGarnet | HP/SPR is fine. Holy Wand is nice to have, or the free Dualcast from FFXII MK. Recommended to have all enhancements | Blanket Elemental Resist, DC/DCWM (materia/weapon), Curaga, Raise, Esper Gauge Fill |
| Cover Tank | EVEarth Veritas | SPR/DEF/HP gear. Fire Blade recommended DW from FFX MK. | Earth Immunity, 100% Earth Res buff, AoE Damage Shield, AoE Physical Cover |
| DPS | FryeviaFryevia | Ideally has Ifrit/Phoenix on, but Tetra for bird killer also works. Doesn't necessarily need any Fire res. Enhanced FFB/Second Intention speeds up the process, but not needed. | Ice Nuker |
Actual Fight
So before going into turn rotations, you want to activate Red Hot Feathers, which will prevent Phoenix from endlessly healing. You can activate this skill by hitting Phoenix with fire damage 4 time when it self imperils fire.
From SomeRandomDeadGuy's post:
Has two sets of imperils, upon being hit with and of the elements he's weakened to he will self dispel and switch to the other one:
AoE 70% fire imperils you and self 50% fire/lightning/wind/light imperils. (Also used on turn 1)
AoE 70% fire imperils you and self 50% ice/water/earth/dark imperils.
The reason why you don't want EV to equip a fire weapon is cause he'll keep activating the self-dispel even when you don't want him to anymore.
EV: AoE Cover -> Earthen Ward -> Fire Blade/Defensive barrier -> Repeat
Garnet: Harmony of Life -> Prayer to Eidolons/Curaga/Summon -> Prayer to Eidolons/Curaga/Summon -> Repeat
Olif: Barfiraga -> World Destroyer/Whisper of the Wyrm/Fire Blade -> Whisper of the Wyrm/World Destroyer/Fire Blade -> Repeat
Soleil: SPR/DEF dance -> SPR/DEF dance (only for first rotation) -> ATK/MAG dance -> Repeat
Fryevia: FFB every turn or FFB -> Second Intention -> Repeat (Sabre Flunge when Phoenix buffs)
If you haven't activated Red Hot Feathers when Phoenix reaches ~45% HP yet, then defend with Fryevia or normal attack until you do.
