Tips
  • For the Great Keeper boss fight: The Great Keepers only deal physical damage so Kabuff (a defensive buff spell) is important. Make sure to keep your party fully healed as they can do high damage. Luckily, the four of them are all in the same group so you can take advantage of multi-targeting abilities and spells. Have Hero and Yangus Psyche Up (charge up attacks) to 50 and attack. Angelo can Buff and Heal. Jessica can Acceleratle (speed up spell), Oomph (attack buff spell) and cast devastating magic attacks. You will be rewarded a Seed of Skill for beating these monsters.
  • You may want to heal up before the final boss battle.
