Attack Diabolos. He should be alone in the area. Begin by dispelling his Haste, casting Bubble on your party and keeping Esunaga ready to treat your allies with. Physical attacks work well on him, but anything that damages him quickly is acceptable. He absorbs fire spells, however, so avoid using those to attack him with.

Kill him before his physical paling takes effect. A paling is a type of magical barrier that prevents you from damaging the target. If you do not kill him quickly enough, you have to wait for the paling to fade or swap to using magic to finish him off.

Tips & Warnings
You must have completed the Antlion Infestation petition in the Lhusu Mines and gained the key for Site 11 before you can reach Diabolos.
Diabolos will begin to cast status effecting spells like Disease, Poison, Sap, Confuse and Curse as his HP gets low. Be ready to cast Esunaga to deal with these negative effects.
