Boss: Cursed Draug

Learn the best strategies and recommended level to defeat the Cursed Draug boss in Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE. Includes weaknesses and skill breakdowns for a successful fight.

Stats / Weaknesses:

• Cursed Draug (Level 35): Weak to Sword and Body skills.
• Red Mage (Level 31): Weak to Sword, Lance, Axe, Ice, and Mind skills.
• Bloodwing Knight (Level 32): Weak to Axe, Bow, Force, and Mind skills.
• Dark Cleric (Level 30): Weak to Sword, Fire, and Mind skills.

Phases:

1. The battle begins with Cursed Draug, 2x Red Mage, 1x Bloodwing Knight, and 1x Dark Cleric.
2. Mirages may appear one by one every other round (e.g., round 3, 5, 7).

Strategy:

• Defensive Approach: In the first round, use skills like Rakukaja (party defense) or Sukukaja (party hit and evade). Crowd control with sleep or weakening effects can also be useful. Cursed Draug uses Bodyguard on its first turn, redirecting single-target attacks to itself. Multi-target attacks or Special Performances are effective against mirages in this scenario. Focus attacks on Cursed Draug and maintain defensive buffs.
• Offensive Approach: Aim to defeat as many mirages as possible within the first three attacks (before Cursed Draug's first turn). If mirages reappear, defeat them before Cursed Draug can use Bodyguard to protect them. Then, resume attacking Cursed Draug.
• General Tips: Cursed Draug has the following skills: Power Chop (Light attack), Bodyguard (Redirects an attack aimed at an ally with reduced damage), Mad Dash (Severe attack, forces cast change), Makarakarn (Blocks one non-almighty magic attack for one round), Tetrakarn (Blocks one non-almighty physical attack for one round), and Lancewind-hack (Medium attack using Lance and Force skills).
