GUIDEKeys to the fight
Turn numbers indicate a typical sequence. HP loss and Stagger can change the order, so also check the names of the skills the enemy is using.
Find a response based on how you lost
- Normally strong loses to
- From turn 2, 1 sets Power to 0 for one roll. Use high Base Power or negative s that do not rely on Plus Power, or apply enemy power debuffs the turn before.
- Attacks do not damage
- nullifies damage below 12. Use strong attacks that deal at least 12 per hit rather than many small hits.
- still applies after the Lamp breaks
- prevents 's recurring , , and SP loss. It does not prevent all from attacks; some skills even increase Count on targets with the Shard.
Before deployment
Prepare an answer to the first Blind Obsession under Paralyze
- Recommended Level 40; deployment limit 6. Turn 2's rolls 15–23, with 1 affecting your Sinners. Bring high-Base-Power or negative- skills.
- If using Meursault's , land it on turn 1 to prepare turn 2's debuffs. Save its resources and the user's SP too.
- Deploying fewer Sinners can give extra slots to your main units, but fewer opening actions make the start less stable. First try 6 Sinners with assigned answers to dangerous skills and .
Turn 1
Do not try to win against the unclashable terrain change
- “” is unclashable. Powerful cannot with it to stop the terrain change. Handle regular es and prepare for next turn instead.
- From turn 2, Sinners without receive 1 , 1 , and -3 SP. Use opening debuffs or healing, and save your main units' answers to .
- “” creates at Turn End. Winning the does not cancel its appearance.
Turn 2 / first Blind Obsession
Win under Paralyze to prevent Sinking Deluge
- Assign your prepared high-Base-Power or negative- skill to . affects rolls, so do not judge only by the skill's usual maximum.
- A Sinner with multiple slots can spend in another before facing . Check action order and remaining .
- Winning against removes HP equal to 34% of the Lamp's Max HP and gives the enemy 1 status. Repeated wins also help break the Part.
- Do not assume alone can always prevent the first cast. If is already slotted, prepare a winning .
After Flotsam appears
Destroy Flotsam before the next Blind Obsession
- has 50 HP and nullifies damage below 12. Use sufficient damage per hit to turn it into .
- meets the condition for the next to become “”. Do not assume it always immediately replaces a skill the enemy has already slotted.
- “” is unclashable and cannot be redirected, targeting . Let it resolve to damage the Lamp rather than trying to intercept it with a Sinner.
- If intact remains when is used, its passive can deal 20 damage to a random Sinner at Turn End. Do not ignore it just because it has no actions.
Breaking the Fluorescent Lamp
Use Shard support to damage the boss
- Break the Lamp with direct attacks, wins against , and “”'s self-damage. It remains targetable after breaking. The Lamp takes 1.5× Pierce versus the Body's 1.0×, so Pierce attackers can keep targeting it.
- Breaking it gives all Sinners , exempting them from 's recurring , , and SP loss.
- The Shard also supports , but you must still stop attacks. “” and “” add Count against Shard carriers, so this is not complete status immunity.
- The Lamp regenerates 2 turns later. Keep handling and use the opening with less to finish the boss.
NOTESUnique effects and cautions
Easy-to-miss details
- The Lamp can still act after breaking. Do not stop assigning es simply because it is broken.
- Destroying differs from removing it entirely. Let “” target the remaining wreckage.
- The initial 1 weakens Plus skills. Choose based on current and action order rather than the usual maximum roll.
- Continue answering attacks during from the status. Do not switch everyone to unopposed attacks based only on the animation.
