Learn the best strategy to defeat Richard (Nova) in Tales of Graces f Remastered. This guide covers his weaknesses, attack patterns, and effective combat tactics.

This fight should be easier than it was at Lhant, purely because you should have gained some considerable levels while Richard is only slightly more powerful.

As with the previous iteration of Richard, the quickest way to end this is to break his Nova Barrier and combo lock him with some easy 50-hit combos on him. Skills like Asbel’s Infernal Torrent and Plasma Shock will strike Richard’s weakness and deal massive damage when combined with a combo multiplier.

When Richard goes on the offensive you’ll want to guard and give yourself some time to heal before you begin another chain, but make sure to avoid him during his Eleth Burst so that you are not hit with Bloody Rose.

Focus on getting a high combo on Richard while avoiding his Bloody Rose Mystic Arte.
