Stats / Weaknesses:

• HP: 1,493,120
• Recommended Level: 86 (or ~65 if you skipped Mysterious Unison)
• Frederic is a powerful fighter, even when he's not on your side.
• His stats are more impressive than Ruined Body.

Phases:

1. Phase 1: Initial Assault

   Frederic starts with his signature moves. Watch out for Applaudissement Sonique, a meteor storm that targets anyone near him. He also uses Pala, a weaker attack that inflicts Burst.

2. Phase 2: Orzel Bialy and Environmental Hazards

   Frederic unleashes Orzel Bialy, one of his signature spells. The arena has very little shade, with moving clouds providing the only temporary cover. This is your chance to use Dark Special Attacks if you time it right with the clouds.

3. Phase 3: Sustained Pressure

   Frederic continues to use his powerful abilities. This phase is about maintaining your offense and defense, using items and healing effectively.

Strategy:

• Utilize the Clouds: The moving clouds overhead are your only source of shade. If you plan to use Dark Special Attacks, position yourself with the clouds and unleash them when the moment is right.
• Item Management: Don't hesitate to use your Heart Cloves or Spade Clovers when you need them. Ensure Viola is ready to use Heal Arrow to keep the party's HP up.
• Constant Offense: Bombard Frederic with Harmony Chains non-stop. Maintaining a consistent offensive pressure is key to victory.
• Preparation is Key: If you visited the Mysterious Unison beforehand, you should be at a significantly higher level and have better gear, making this fight much easier.
• Don't Underestimate Him: Despite his potential as an ally, Frederic is a formidable opponent. Treat him with respect and don't let your guard down.
