Tips
  • PA Affinity: PAs are the primary method for increasing character affinity.
  • Mythril Brute Strategy: This enemy is slow but has a dangerous Earth Glaive. Prioritize taking out the bats first with Fayt from a safe distance. Use Sophia's long-range Confirm attack on the Brute when it's distracted by Fayt or its Fury is low. Bait its Earth Glaive attack to lower Fury. Move counter-clockwise only when it's too close.
  • Mythril Brute Drop: If defeated, it drops a Regeneration Symbol, but it's not essential.
  • Incapacitator VRSS Strategy (4D): Feint all enemies and focus attacks on the last one from behind. Repeat this pattern.
  • Unique Items: Rossetti Performance Ticket, Shake, Metal Pipe, Fragile Metal Pipe.
  • Potential Drop: Regeneration Symbol (from Mythril Brute).
  • Affinity Changes based on PA choices.
