.Hack//Infection help and tips?

Question

Right now I'm pretty into .Hack//Infection, and I promised myself that I would beat the game today. I have to fight Skeith but I need some help deciding on what weapons to use, etc.

I'm at level 32. Is that good enough to defeat Skeith? Or should I be somewhere in the range of 35-40?

My party always consists of BlackRose and Elk. I found the strongest weapon for BlackRose and Elk in the .Hack//Infection game, but I can't find the Dante Blades for Kite. Does anyone know the keywords for the place I'd have to go to? Or what monsters I'd have to Data Drain?

Last question;

I know that I should be prepared and loaded with potions and Mages Souls, etc. So would 99 Health Drinks do the trick along with 40 Antidotes and 40 Mages Souls? Will there be anything else that I will need?

Thank you! Any help whatsoever is appreciated. ^_^

Hey.  Im also close to the end, but i haven't gotten there yet.  My suggestion would be to find your best weapons/equipment and use them.  Also, it couldn't hurt to level up a little bit.

During battle make sure to utilize your group commands such as Spells! and First Aid! for specific (or all) characters if necessary.  But still keep in mind that BlackRose has little in the way of magic.  She has a number of combat skills, though.  (Some monsters are not heavily effected by those types of skills, but im not sure about Skeith.  He probably is.)   Carry alot of healing/revival items just in case.  

I haven't fought skeith yet, but i've read up on him.  Try to learn his attacks.  Most of them do ALOT of damage.  Like between 300 and 600 hp of damage :O (i think).  Also, i think he has one attack that puts a bunch of status effects on your character, so carry antidotes and restoratives.  You pretty much will probably just have to slowly (it may take a while) cut at his HP until you can Data drain him.  You (or a support character if you command it) will probably have to revive members your party many times, but just keep at it.  Be careful of his Judgement attack.  It does alot of damage to EVERYBODY in the party regardless of location, or what they are doing.  Use an item like pure/well water at the beginning to cut the damage for a while.

After you data drain him just keep hammering him like you have the whole time.  He will have lost a couple of attacks, but he is still tough.  He will probably attack more frequently, and be a bit faster than before.  Make sure to avoid hits at all costs!  I cant tell you how many times ive gotten that far and then got killed. :(  Like, especially early in the game when i wasn't any good. XD

---EDIT---

Dante's Blades (along with Virus Core B and Scarlet Autumn) can be found when you data drain Tetra Armor, but im not sure where its located.  You can probably find it in a field on your way to the dungeons(?)  Just a guess.

Good Luck!

99 health drinks and 75 mages soul and about 50 antidotes will do
