BOSS - Flamethrower
- HP: ~1300
- Weaknesses: Fire protection (Hymn of Fire recommended).
- Attacks: Kabuff (mitigates physical damage), throws a burning ball (70+ damage to one character), breath attack (similar damage to the whole party).
- Strategy: Use healing spells like Multiheal (Serena, Rab) and Hustle Dance (Sylvando) when necessary. For offense, use Hero's Cutting Edge/Unbridled Blade and Jade's Multithrust.
- After defeating the Flamethrower, use Evac to return to the cave entrance. Go back to the second floor and report to the NPC who gave the quest. The reward is a Holy Talisman.
Tips

- Conveyors will force you to move in their direction until the path ends.
- The Flamethrower is a boss version of enemies you may have encountered before, with significantly more HP.
- Having fire protection, such as Serena's Hymn of Fire, can help mitigate damage from the boss's fire attacks.
- Be prepared to heal frequently, especially after the boss uses its party-wide breath attack.
