I'm partway through Chapter 13 on Hard Mode and I'd say the Cait Sith solo section and Rufus have been the hardest things so far. Rufus has a great learning curve though - to the point where you can get quite easily do it without taking much if any damage once you learn the tricks. Abuse the command menu's instant pauses to get a read on when he Reloads, block his close range "shotgun" for free ATB with Steadfast Block, and Triple Slash into a bunch of damage/ATB whenever you catch him Reloading. Make absolutely sure Cloud ends the fight with the Turks at high HP/MP - I had to redo that battle because I left him low.
