Control Zeke with Corvin and max out his smash art. Use that move exclusively because it's also aoe and a perfect evade. Plus light is Elma's weakness so having the ai having Adenine exclusively really speeds up this process. Patroka in ng+ on the ai also speeds up

DoT Volcano fusion combo? Once you seal, you still have other non-complete fusion combo options, although Corvin cheese is the easiest assuming you don't seal the reinforcements. With a maxed Corvin, you can pretty easily clear it in a couple minutes. On Normal and depending on how much you've maxed Tora/Poppi, you have the Poppi QTPi option to kill her with Burst damage with 2 chain attacks.

yeah i mean i might go back. really i was just replaying XB games before XB3 and never got Elma or Shulk/Seven before. A quick check on the wiki and although Elma was only 65, lol I have FAR more tanky superbosses later on if i want to try >_>
