I don't have anywhere near as much money as needed to buy the Astral Domine. I can't beat him in combat because he dodges all my attacks and is immune to all my magic!! I have all the other atifacts and plan to go to the Rapax soon.
It's pretty unusual to get that far and not have accumulated at least couple hundred K gold. Or do you have a wild one in your party who spends it as soon as s/he gets it? If you have anyone in the party with an Alchemy skill of at least 15, funds stop being a problem: you can have, literally, as much gold as you want. Buy Light Heal and Moderate Heal potions from Braffit and He'Li, combine them to make Heavy Heal potions, and sell those to He'Li. If your Alchemy skill is higher, you can mix better potions and make money faster. With an Alchemy skill of 50, you can make Renewal potions for a net profit of over 2000 per bottle.

WRT fighting the Don, buff and de-buff spells like Armormelt, Missile Shield, Superman, and Enchanted Blade are important. Or at least the first three: I've generally found it less painful standing back and poking arrows into the Don rather than standing up close and trying to poke knives into him.
