[Spoiler] Question about a certain part of chapter 8 of Bravely Default

Spoilers

I'm at the boss rush in chapter 8, however it's really kicking my ass, and I really don't want to resort to cheap tactics to beat it right now. I

know I'm very close to finishing the game, but I'm worried that if I go on too far, I won't be able to try it again later when I feel more up to it.

My question is: does it "expire" at any point, or will I be able to go back and finish it sometime after completing the game?

Nope. The boss rush (both the full gauntlet in one go, and the separate battles) will never expire. They're available for the rest of the game. And yeah, they're hard, harder than the final boss, so don't worry if you can't beat them all.

If you aren't up for the ridiculously effective tactics, maybe add a little variation in the team? I had my Edea with the Dark Knight HP Drain exploit, but other than that the others were not that insane. Tiz was a Ninja/DK to support Edea, Agnes was a White Mage/Spiritmaster for healing and support. Ringabel was a Templar/Spiritmaster for tanking damage, and eventually idk why I made him Vampire/Spiritmaster. But he was still tanking a lot, especially since I could use Kairai on him with Tiz.

Just a suggestion. Of course, it also becomes easier when you level a bit. I cleared boss rush around Lv 90+.

I cheesed my way through the boss rush after reading the first reply here:

You basically build up a shit ton of BP while under Stillness, then unleash it all and reapply Stillness. Just gotta be sure Enigma is still active whenever you use Dark Nebula. I forgot to reinstate it once and my Dark Knight Edea killed everyone.
