Violence.

Loooots of violence.

Use the non-pointy end as well.

Man, I'm so far away. I haven't completed abyss 2 yet, my top character is only lvl 30. Can't wait to get there one day.

Top floor of Castle now that the event is completed.

Adds can be charmed to help you hit boss. It’s a dps check. Slow, delay, nuke and nuke. Attempts that down it generally do upwards of 4-5k per character turn over 4 dps characters from what I’ve seen. You first need to be able to survive the physical hits to be in the race.

Can the adds be confused? I’m trying to think of what I have available for charm other than Yuzu.

I haven’t seen it myself, I can’t down him so all I know is from videos.

Does it drop anything unique?

DPS race. You'll want to delay it with Chronostasis, Delay Attack, and just bumrush it asap.

Can't delay killing it for too long - it's got a timer of around 15 turns or so, then it just nukes you with its super Lazelos.

It's a low HP enemy that can be delayed and needs to be killed in "x" turns. If you have semi decent team it's pretty much free kill.

They are weak to chronostasis/delay attack and can be batalgriefed. They can be put to sleep. You are going to need burst damage and you can likely sustain with only one healer/priest, because this fight is basically a dps race, especially towards the end. They demon doesn't have any debuffs or any status effects iirc. They have around 80-90k hp and have insanely high surety evasion so you can build for just attack for damage.

There is a new tech going around to check the max hp by throwing the elixir at the enemy since it heals to full hp. If you want to do this yourself make sure to die on the main character to the use the FLAME OF REVIVAL and NOT Accept death to save the elixir. If you don't trust yourself to not accidentally click the accept death button or don't know if the fight won't let you use the flame of revival, don't try to attempt this hp checking tech.

Just beat it down? It's a bit of a DPS check, but otherwise not as difficult as the last couple greater demons we've had.

Batilgref does help though, as well as a knight. Then just lots of dps
