Struggling with the tough Enemies (84) battle in Disgaea: Hour of Darkness? Get a veteran's strategy to defeat the Lv. 400 Tao Tieh and its allies.

Alright, so you've hit Enemies (84) and you're probably feeling the heat. This one's a big step up, and honestly, trying it at Level 100 is just asking for trouble. I'd say aim for at least Level 250, and make sure your gear is top-notch. There's no real rush to clear this one since the next few battles are way tougher (think Level 700 minimum!), but if you're determined to push through, here's how I'd tackle it.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Start by bringing out about four characters. Have a mage or two on standby ready to cast Braveheart. Once they've acted, send everyone else back to the base panel.
  2. 2
    Now, send out just one or two characters. Crucially, send them in the *opposite* direction of the Lv. 400 Tao Tieh. This thing is the biggest threat, so you want to keep your distance initially.
  3. 3
    Hopefully, your mages will act in a way that draws some of the enemies away from your main fighters. Your priority is to take out the Lv. 300 Scarecrows as quickly as possible because they can hit multiple characters in a line.
  4. 4
    Once the Scarecrows are dealt with, you can focus on the Lv. 350 Demonic Suits.
  5. 5
    Meanwhile, if Laharl is out, have him use Meteor Impact to hit as many enemies as possible, especially if he can corner them. If he can only hit one enemy, use Nightsever, but be careful not to get yourself killed.
  6. 6
    You'll likely need someone to cast Omega Heal on your party as characters start taking damage. It's essential to keep everyone topped up.
  7. 7
    When the Tao Tieh finally moves into range, try to hit it with everything you've got, but remember its power. If you still have characters you can call from the base panel, consider pulling one out and then sending it back to the panel on your turn. This prevents the Tao Tieh from attacking that character for that turn, which can save you a lot of trouble and make the difference between winning and losing.
Tips
  • This battle is significantly harder than the previous two. Don't underestimate it.
  • Level 250 is a good minimum, but higher is always better.
  • Good equipment is non-negotiable for this fight.
  • Prioritize eliminating the Scarecrows first due to their line attacks.
  • Use your mages strategically for buffs (Braveheart) and healing (Omega Heal).
  • Managing the Tao Tieh's attacks by temporarily removing characters from the field can be a game-changer.
  • Don't be discouraged; it's a tough fight, but definitely winnable with the right approach.
