3 things to understand first
- Handle first to weaken later clashes.
- The marked Sinner must stop “” with an Attack .
- Protect Meursault and Outis's HP, reduce their Bladetrail, and deplete each Shield in turn.
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
- Another Sinner cannot clash with the designated attack
- Only the Sinner with the corresponding Dawn's First Crow, The Sun's Descent, or Eventide Glow can clash with “”. Defense s cannot activate either, so prepare an Attack for the marked Sinner.
- The area attack every three turns deals heavy damage
- Win against “” to remove marks before Scartrail Slash. Marked Sinners take additional damage equal to five times the 's Final Power. Have a slow Sinner handle the area attack so marks and resolve first.
- Breaking the Shield does not end the battle
- Unlike 9-33, breaking the initial 1,600 Shield is not enough. Deplete the Shield at each stage, then lower HP to 959. Surviving 11 turns is not an ending condition here.
Before deployment
Level the three required Sinners and stabilize early clashes
- Recommended Lv. 60 with Ryōshū, Meursault, and Outis. No NPCs provide assistance, so bring Slash resistance, healing, and strong clashes for each Sinner.
- Ryōshū cannot die while another ally lives. Where she can win, assign her Swift Glimmer, Formless Cut, and other skills with heavy damage remaining after a clash.
- If the opening is unstable, consider on the first turn. Avoid spending all three Ampule uses shared by Meursault and Outis in the opening turns.
Turns with Silent Regard available
Win against Silent Regard early with a fast Sinner
- Winning against gives the enemy 2 and restores 5 SP to its clasher. Use a fast Sinner to apply the debuff before later powerful attacks.
- Marked Sinners also need to handle “”. Do not spend all their slots on ; save skills for designated attacks and area attacks.
- Winning against Swift Glimmer reduces its Atk Weight from 3 to 1. Winning against Formless Cut grants 80% damage reduction and prevents from that skill. Use Ryōshū's winning skills to limit damage.
“Destinated Opponent” and Scartrail Slash
Have each marked Sinner remove their mark before the area attack
- Check Dawn's First Crow, The Sun's Descent, and Eventide Glow, then have the corresponding Sinner beat “” with an attack. Defense s cannot activate; leaving it unopposed also gives the enemy +10 Final Power.
- A clash win removes the mark and deals fixed damage to the enemy. When several designated attacks appear, remove the marks on Sinners other than Ryōshū too.
- Scartrail Slash appears every three turns and deals heavy extra damage to marked targets. Have a slow Sinner clash with it so and mark removal resolve first.
- If winning against the area attack looks unlikely, prepare Defense s. Use the passive that halves final damage against targets using defense and Scartrail Slash's reduction based on equipped Defense s. “” and Deathedge preventing defense are separate exceptions.
Afterimage stages 4 → 3 → 2
Deplete Shields and reduce Bladetrail through Phantom Step
- Depleting the Shield lowers the Afterimage stage by one and grants a new Shield at the next stage. After breaking it at stages 4 and 3, use the next turn's to attack.
- Phantom Step joins the pattern at stage 3. Let Meursault and Outis win against it to halve Bladetrail. Even with Ampule revivals available, do not neglect Bladetrail damage.
- The enemy reduces HP damage, SP damage, and Threshold advancement from statuses by 30%. Combine direct Wrath, Gloom, and Slash damage with early debuffs.
Afterimage stages 1 and 0
Reduce Bladetrail before String Severance and use automatic E.G.O attacks
- Uttermost Rend Space - String Severance gains +10 Final Power at 20 or more SP. Even base may struggle, so reduce Bladetrail through Phantom Step first and prepare healing and defense.
- On reaching stage 1, Meursault automatically uses at maximum ; Outis uses the next turn. These are separate from manual uses that spend your SP and resources.
- Deathedge prioritizes low-HP Sinners other than Ryōshū and prevents Defense s from activating. with an Attack and redirect it to Ryōshū if possible. Concentrating too many hits on her can cause to complicate next-turn assignments.
- After depleting the remaining Shields, lower HP to 959. Ryōshū surviving alone is not enough; manage the other two Sinners' HP and shared Ampules too.
NOTESUnique effects and cautions
Easy-to-miss details
- The ending differs from 9-33's Shield break or 11-turn survival. Progress through the stages and lower HP to 959 here.
- Ryōshū's protection from death requires another living ally. She is not safe if Meursault and Outis both fall.
- “” prevents Defense s from activating. Preparing defense against major attacks does not mean defense can stop this skill.
- and Phantom Step use the Power values available in the 9-41 tables. Do not import another battle's unconfirmed values or Tiansha Star's Bladewound.
