Tips
  • Flanitors can heal their allies with their Rescue ability. Always kill them first when encountered with other enemy types to avoid protracted battles.
  • Lucidons are similar to Scalebeasts but have stronger attacks. Stagger them quickly, then Launch and pummel them.
  • Be aware of the Lucidon's Photon Burst attack, which can remove at least half of Hope’s HP. Consider using War & Peace.
  • When claiming treasure in the second secret area, kill the Flanitor before the Lucidon.
