Tips
  • The Revivalist summons three enemies (Grublin, Merman, and Kisser) at the start of the battle and casts Kabuff and Magic Barrier on everyone.
  • The Revivalist acts twice per turn after its initial setup.
  • Concentrate attacks on the Revivalist to defeat it quickly.
  • If the summoned enemies are too much, eliminate all but one. The Grublin is the least threatening as it only attacks one character, while the Merman and Kisser have party-wide attacks.
  • The Revivalist may waste a turn by "looking for a smile."
  • The Revivalist's main attack is Swoosh, which hits the entire party for about 60 damage. This can be easily countered with spells like Multiheal or Hustle Dance.
  • The Revivalist can use Underpants Dance, which can cause affected characters to lose a turn.
  • The Revivalist can use Oomph on itself to increase its attack power.
