Probably by ridiculous levels of persistence in doing single digit damage to bosses, or using the Raging Ache chain ability to do larger numbers but also dying a whole bunch because of it! The game is so obtuse, this is how a lot of people beat it.

Sure, if you do grok the mechanics, the game is way easier, but it's just not explained very well, so it's not remotely unreasonable to struggle with Vagrant Story.
It's not a case of you being dumb and missing something, it's just that dang unclear how to actually build for boss fights!
There are some good guides on GameFAQs if you wanted to check, specifically Beamup's Combat Mechanics Guide, or, uh, y'know, my guide and walkthrough (specifically the Tips and Tricks page at the beginning of the walkthrough section rather than the entire thing [though it's all good!]).
