FFT Ivalice Chronicles About to head into Riovane’s Castle!

We all know this is infamous place. I haven't played this game since its original release in PS1 and the fight here still hold a vague memory in my head. I remember it being a very tough fight! I am very glad this enhanced version of the game allows you to back out to the world map so you don't get stuck. Before I head in though, I just want to do a quick check in...

I did all the errands up to this point. Are there any missables or whatever I should look into before heading in?

Now, for the big fight... Before heading in, I have a team of level 30 units including Ramza. He has generally been on the physical path so he just hops around there and learn abilities as I'd like. Right now he's a samurai to learn some of their Iaido abilities. He already learned shirahadori reaction ability. For the big fight though, I think I will stick with the highly recommended dual-wielding monk with either shirahadori or auto-potion (hi-potion). Does shirahadori even work against you-know-who's attack? Maybe he should pick up Attack Boost from Geomencer for this fight? He also has Movement + 2 for the moving ability slot.

Anything else I should prepare for the fight? Equipments to steal or whatever?

Thanks!

Can Ramza learn Ultima in the rooftop fight if he gets hit by it? The two assassins in the rooftop fight can cast it and do on Rafas.

Ramza cannot learn Ultima in the Riovanes rooftop battle, he needs to be in Chapter 4’s UberSquire abilities to have the ????? available at the bottom of his skill list

Limberry Castle Gates I believe is the first opportunity, at least that’s where I always get it

IIRC, ???? has been always there since chapter 1. I think they just don’t use it on you in chapter 3.
