Level 200

In , alone with Sered, who mostly plays Intimidation and Pressure. Very tense fight originally, much easier since.

  • Pernicious Chant

    Whack of 500 to 700 in Water, removes 4 dodgeable MP for 1 turn and pushes back 3 cells.

  • Summoning of Flute Player

    Summons a Music-Loving Diepwon, which mostly pulls in a line and hits fairly hard in melee, with life steal. Resummoned every 5 turns.

  • Crazy Cacophony

  • Tip: target the Flute Player

    No point killing the Music-Loving Diepwon: by the time you finish it off, it will be turn 5 and it will summon another one. Avoid getting pulled and kill the Flute Player before turn 5, otherwise you will have two summons. At close range, stay against a wall near it, so as not to be pushed to the other end of the map with no MP.
