Light Elemental...Hard Core even on Easy Mode.

[blackageha]

Just defeated it,
But don't have any ideas for Normal and beyond.

What I did on Easy:
Sophie on God's Gift (Level down, 4 times attack) + Angel's Whisper (Revive Everyone if they KO), Buff and Attack
Leon on Buff, Debuff and Attack Duty + Heal Regen M (Some yellow candle, heals Break)
Julio on Debuff and Attack, Warning on Boss, start using SoulFire.
Placta on Spirit Weave Cloth, Squall Shot (heals + cure status change)

Mystery Elixir (Heals alot, Revive, Cure status change), Refuel Bottles (Heal Break + Auto Heal at 50%HP) spread on everyone. Make sure to have 'Multiple' Traits.

Everyone on Offensive Stance.

Its important to not let this Boss get more than 1 kill as she becomes stronger.
After the initial buff, debuffs, Attack and heal accordingly.
If 'She' has half HP left, almost going to break and Chain Link is almost 300%, just press Attack on everyone! This will get you almost 2 rounds to overkill her.

If you don't take this chance, she will eventually become stronger and very hard to hit.

If anyone has suggestions on how to tackle this Boss on stronger modes, feel free to share!

If your refuel bottles is not powerful enough, Try some Puni Jelly that are 'Alive'. Works better than Refuel Bottles but of course only some people can equip it.

But for Sophia its better to use Mystery Elixer for herself. At max properties, it can auto heal and revive (this part is a Trait from the flower that must be used) herself.

Oh, the bottles are sufficiently powerful, and reliably wipe the party if the group is cursed. I cursed too the first time it happened. Was quite amusing. Still thinking how to combat this... But i hijack the thread, i apologize.

Angel's Ribbon (1st bar) for Nullify Curse at max.

No idea where Nullify Seal & Immobile are...

[Syad]

thanks, i was already getting desperate, tried putting purifying water on breezy aroma, well it killed first, cleansed later, not exactly the result i hoped for xD

I revisited this boss after I buffed up my characters to beat Evil King on normal mode. With a few tries I lucked out on beating her on Despair mode. I still have no idea what I'm doing.

I was using Flame of the End to break her.

Interesting...What equipment for immobile & seal you used?

[Kite]

Nothing to nullify immobile and seal so there's a chance that will still happen. I'm using Ares brooch on all my characters for nullify curse and aliment resist M. There is probably something better than this though. I'm sure there's a much better way to beat her with more consistency.

In high difficulty of this game, more turns in battle means more danger, cuz the high stat boss can deal tons of damage with double actions. Some powerful skills may even smash your party with full HP.

Because of this, we need to finish the boss before it can move.

It will be a long article if I wrote all the things, so I just list some key points(without DLC).

Reach quality 999 as possible as you can
4th weapon with Spirit Slayer, enhance with Rubilium.
Bridal Blouse or Full Metal Shirt, enhance with Flugel
Time Control Hourglass with its 4th effect 'Control the Future'
White-Hot Headband with effects 'Inner Fire' and 'Inject Warlike Spirit'
Trait 'Power of Faith' on two accessories
Trait 'Well Rounded Power' on all your equipment
Unequip all your auto-use recovery item, and take Breezy Aroma instead if you need
Just use normal attack with Offensive Stance in battle, every member
To defeat Evil King, you can use 'Demon Slayer' and 'Wards Evil' on weapon

These are powerful settings in HARD difficulty. With DLC, it will be another world of DESPAIR difficulty

You can check my guide in steam to get more practical tricks, including how to enhance your equipment without loss.

I plan to write a guide about how to make 999 quality things recently when my daily work is not that busy.

@Okamiroy
Nice!

I just defeated this boss easily on Normal with Heaven's Cleanser (gets rid of enhancements) and Flame of the End (Level Down, lots of damage)

Just wait till you get to the part where they even stop activating, that's much worse. :P
30 minute fights with the Demon King and Leon only used her 4 refuel potions a grand total of...once.

Light elemental is a very anti-fun boss to fight because she has her powerful abilities and on top of that spams status effects each turn, and has an absurd amount of evasion so most attacks will miss. Not worth fighting above easy tbh.

ps: tried Light Elemental on Despair without DLC. After a while I just decided to turn it down to normal, since it's not worth the headache.
Altho my stats resistance items are very weak, and I dont use items on Sophie so there's that.

[Syad]

ok just got to this boss(finally got the rumor lol). Definitely a step up in difficulty. Getting her to 50% health is a piece of cake, she does insignificunt damage and her only weapon is the Curse. At half health however she summons a light disc, infinite duration, aoe 150 damage+dispel. Wow. Any way to get rid of that thing?

[Tiasmoon]

Can't get rid of it as far as I know, it stays there to hit you each turn untill the fight ends.
You will have to defeat her while also healing each turn. If you have any aoe heal items that place a heal card (heals again following turn) that will help you a lot.

If your having trouble dealing enough damage (miss,miss,miss) note that assist attacks and normal attacks can't miss.

[Syad]

hmm that just gave me an idea, thanks! :D
