Tips

• See testimonials and discussions.
• Magic tank like Mystea can cover for both Consume and Body Slam.
• With ATK and MAG break, all of its damage are manageable, including Consume. But if Consume is still too strong for your tank, you should use reraise.
• Since Body Slam deals rather low damage, you can opt to use a provoke tank instead to taunt Consume.
• Stop from Body Slam can be prevented by Mystea, Moogle, Silvia, or Vaan, cured by Ayaka, or dispelled. Either damage dispel like Fingersnap, Bushido - Freedom or dualcast dispel trick will be able to dispel your own unit.
• Bring a dispel to remove Angry Expression.
• Demon killer is effective against it.

• To fulfill the "Evoke an Esper" mission while still "Clear within 10 turns", the following may help:
  • LB of summoner-class units, i.e. Garnet and Rydia. However, all summoners are currently confined to 5-star, limiting their use outside of fulfilling said mission.
  • Chain. Exercise caution to not cross the 50% HP threshold, which significantly raise the battle difficulty.
  • Barrage-type skills, e.g. Barrage, Orlandeau's Cleansing Strike, and King/Amelia's Rapid Fire. Preferrable with Dual Wield or equivalent.
