Enemy Info (Thebel 1-15F):

Thebel 1-15FLvH PS PSTPABZGHM
Cowardly Maya02042013---W-WW--
Grave Beetle07163076-----SW--

Trance Twins06062036---WWS---
Wealth Hand01100------------

This table is super handy for knowing what you're up against. Pay close attention to the 'W' for Weaknesses! For example, Cowardly Mayas are weak to Agi ('A'), Zio ('Z'), Garu ('G'), and Mudo ('M'). Knowing these will save you a lot of SP and HP.

Golden Shadows:

Whenever you see a Golden Shadow, be stealthy! You need to sneak up on them from behind before attacking. If they spot you, they'll likely run away. If you manage to engage them in battle, they have a 50/50 chance of escaping. Physical skills tend to work well against them, but be careful not to miss, or you'll waste a turn getting up. Normal attacks are an option if you're low on SP, but bows are better if you go that route. Magical spells are effective but drain your precious SP.

Boss Fight: Venus Eagle (Thebel 5F)

Thebel 5F BossesLvH PS PSlStPrAgBfZiGr
Venus Eagle x 3030,150-------WkSt----St

These three birds are your next major hurdle. They're weak to Pierce attacks ('Wk' for Pr) and strong against Wind ('St' for Gr). They also use Garu and Magaru, which Junpei is weak to, but Yukari can resist these. Your best bet is to set Junpei and Yukari to 'Assign Target' and focus your attacks. Pierce attacks will be your friend here. Execute All-out Attacks (AoA) when you get the chance – two or three should do the trick.

  • EXP: 51
  • Dropped Item(s): Empress Mask x 3
  • Treasure(s): Bead Chain

Strategy Tip: After this fight, your MC should be around Level 4. Save your game, then consider heading back to the fifth floor alone. This is a bit of a unique strategy: the idea is that sometimes your teammates can accidentally draw Shadow attention, and you want to focus on keeping yourself healthy for the upcoming challenges. This might seem counterintuitive, but it's about managing risk and ensuring you're ready for whatever comes next!
