Tips
  • The boss uses Kasap repeatedly, making the party vulnerable to its strong physical attacks.
  • Bring two healers: one with Kabuff and one with Midheal or Fullheal, and ensure they have plenty of MP.
  • The Staff of Ghent is recommended as a backup.
  • Consider bringing Amor Seco Essences and Magic Waters.
  • If you have two characters with Kabuff and healing spells, such as Milly and Nevan, it is advantageous.
  • As an alternative, reach the third boss, use Evac, save your game, heal MP, and potentially change your party before fighting.
  • Two fighters are essential for the active party.
  • Ensure everyone has good defensive equipment.
  • New enemies, Wayward Armour, can deal around 200 HP damage with a single body slam.
  • Keep a healer like Nevan in the back-up party for Zing and Fullheal when needed.
  • Levels 24-29 are recommended for the leading team, but the area is still challenging.
  • Use Follow Orders tactics when facing mixed groups of Armours and Stinkerbells.
  • Prioritize taking out Mud Mannequins immediately as they can use Whack.
  • Use the Staff of Ghent to heal and conserve MP.
  • Sweet Breath and Fuddle can be effective on groups of enemies.
  • The Poison Moth Knife is effective against Stinkerbells.
