[x] Throw spear at giant's head.
-[x] Utter vulgar expletives regarding its mother to get its attention, perhaps launch another spear upon its skull. Insult its masculinity.
-[x] Attempt to outpace the creature and recover your ally. Escape for this is no beast you are able to slay on your lonesome.
-[x] Insult its masculinity once more for good measure and retreat valiantly from this battle.
Considering the current corruption, this seems to be a more econmical plan.
[X] ATTACK!
-[X] Conjure Spear x5
-[X] Conjure Chain
-[X] Enchant them: Flaming, homing.
-[X] Conjure the spears around the monster and throw them at the monster´s Head, left arm and right arm with each spear having a chain tied to it.
[X] With the last remaining spear rush towards his gigantic arm and hammer it down his elbow while enchanting it with a [Explosive] property, fill it with magic and set it to explode right in his elbow, evaporating his arm.
-[X] Use chain barrier to protect yourself and nanoha from the explosion, as soon as you´re able grab her and retreat to a safe place, cleanse as soon as possible while making sure she´s okay.
You charge without hesitation, a quintet of spears connected by a length of chain flaring into existence around the titan, igniting even as they thrust for different targets across his body...meeting grey flesh with inhuman force, only to accomplish nothing as they are deflected aside without even a hint of effort on his part.
'What the hell? Those should have...shit!'
You charge without hesitation, but panic assaults you internally as the realization hits that your opponent has become even more ridiculously durable than before.
'No playing around, then.'
You lift your remaining spear, still heavily enchanted from earlier, and thrust it towards the arm gripping Nanoha with all the force your remaining arm can muster...blazing crimson light meets ominous grey flesh, and the light gives, your spear sliding harmlessly across his arm.
His other whips around, and you feel the air whistle by as you hurl yourself with all the speed you can, lashing back with your spear to no avail.
You've done no harm...but he seems to be focused on you now, rather than Nanoha.
Now you just need some way to fight back...or at least to make him let your comrade go.

Sorry...but godhand has already tasted your spears. You might have pierced it one more time, if you had both arms...but not like this. Wasn't really much more to include in the update, considering...
Good luck. On the upside, Homura will likely realize Sesshomaru isn't coming, soon...

[x] He's focused on attacking you, but he needs leverage to actually apply that strength to attack. Rob him of that leverage.
-[x] Enchant the ground beneath him to be frictionless.
-[x] Summon a chain to ensnare one of his legs, then lift him from the ground.
[x] You can't cut him, but he still needs air to breathe. Summon a second chain and try to strangle him with it.
-[x] If he drops cosplay girl, prioritize rescuing her over killing him.
I think we need way more than a single chain to bind him. Remember that after a while he can break free of Enkidu!
Another thing worth considering is that Strength based attacks and Noble Phantasm based attacks count as different things for purposes of Godhand, even if they are executed with the same weapon. That's why its possible for Lancer to get two kills against Herc, once by using his runes to rank up his strength to A, and a second time by using his runes to rank up Gae Bolg to A.
Binding? You mean the strangle part? Because that's primarily to get him to drop Nanoha. I fully expect him to break the chain. If you're talking about ensnaring his leg, that's to lift him off the ground so he can't attack properly.
The problem is, some of the votes are going in assuming that somehow we're strong enough to move him around. We're really not. We might be able to influence his movement, but doing something like lifting his leg from the ground with a chain? Choking him? I wouldn't be surprised if he could break our chains in a matter of seconds.
Edit: It's less that he's super heavy (though he is pretty heavy) and more that he's more than strong enough to resist such an act.

Be as strong as you want. That has no influence over something's ability to lift you. Now, he probably could just break the chains. But there's nothing stopping Kyouko from making more.
If someone pulls on my leg, unless i was 100% not expecting it, I can exert my own strength to remain on balance. If we were trying to lift him completely, then strength wouldn't help him, but we're not.

We could try to hit him in the feet with a sweep strong enough to create momentum and make him lose his footing. The moment he loses control of his center of gravity, those 311 kg will play on our favour. The focus should be in restraining or distracting, not killing.

Yeah, this is not going too well, is it? I feel like there's little we can do to ensure he drops Nanoha, unfortunately. We have to force him to use both hands, but given he tends to simply tank attacks that are too weak to threatens him, easier said than done.
Though, maybe... leaving aside if we can lift him or not, maybe chaining his free hand, forcing him to use the other to break his bonds, would work?

Your chains CAN support large weights, but you'd have want to enchant them for increased durability (because Heracles isn't going to sit still if you try this)...and possibly cook up a new enchantment for increasing the effective strength behind magically controlled objects (because that is a pretty substantial weight, and Kyouko usually uses that enchantment for little more than controlling projectiles and such).
Enchanting the ground is possible...but is definitely pushing Kyouko's magical skills. It'd come down to a roll or two to see if she could pull it off...which is by no means saying you shouldn't try. Risks will be needed to beat bosses in this game.
My mistake. It was called "Blessing of Life," but it was an Eva reference. A reward for "Bridging the Gap," by Duskwitch. It got you the Ego Enchantment...which is good for many things, although you don't have full understanding of it yet (IC or OOC).
Actually, @Higure, since she's already done it once before, does Kyoko remember how to conjure a Lance of Longinus, and if so, can she do it quick enough to be viable while in combat?
Pretty sure the only ways we can actually kill Herc for good are a powerful Noble Phantasm or Starlight Breaker, things that can deplete multiple lives in one shot.
Stalling for time could let Mami recover enough to interrupt with a Tiro Finale, but that is highly unlikely to take out more than one life.

She can conjure a lance in that form, yes, but it will be massively weaker (it's potency, both in Ego and Power, is based in it being the creation of two cooperating Magi). Also...no, it wouldn't be that fast. She can learn to speed that up, with practice, but she's still pretty unfamiliar with the Lance.
