Attack Pattern[]
- Turn 1: Sparkling Horn, end turn.
- Turn 8 and above: Supersonic Thanatos, The giant horn drains all! x2.
- 75%/50% HP threshold (Max 1/battle each)
- Attacked with magic spell: Multi Horn
- Otherwise: Demon's Stone
- 30% HP threshold (Max 1/battle): Menacing Stampede
- Every turn: Charge, end turn.
Tips[]
- See testimonials and discussions.
- On turn 1, Elafikeras will give your party MP refresh (~900 MP per turn for 8 turns), and will start attacking properly from turn 2 onward.
- This battle is a simple damage race. You have 8 turns to defeat Elafikeras before it rages. Note that the mission requires you to clear within 7 turns.
- If you cross multiple thresholds at once, all the conditional attacks will trigger together.
- Once it rages, it will use AoE death, MP drain, 99999 damage to party and fully heal itself every turn.
- It is vulnerable to disease, reducing its stats by 10%. In essence increasing your damage done by 10% and reducing your damage taken by 19%. You can use Toxic Rain to inflict disease with a high chance.
Strategy[]
Survival[]
- With a proper setup, dedicated healer is not necessary.
- You can either use a cover tank or a very high breaker. Coupled with a bard, that will be enough to mitigate damage taken.
- For cover tank you can use Warrior of Light or Basch as they also have ATK/MAG break. Rotate between cover and break.
- Use Mechanical Heart to heal most of the damage taken.
- Alternatively, you can use a unit with very high break like Tim, 9S, or Knight Delita, any of the units listed here.
- To inflict disease, Toxic Rain or 9S' LB will work.
- A strong bard like Roy, Ramza (Awk), or Lunera (Awk) will heal the remainder of the damage and buff your party.
- It uses Charge every turn, which is physical AoE damage, and on 75% and 50% threshold it will use a stronger AoE ability once, which can be either physical or magic damage. If you damage it with a magic spell on that turn it will use a physical damage, otherwise it uses magic damage. This has to be a magic spell and not an ability with magic damage.
Damage[]
- With 2 slots taken for survival, the rest 4 slots can be dedicated to damage.
- You can use either physical or magic attacker, but due to its stats, magic damage will deal three times more damage than physical damage, and it is weak to wind.
- Recommended wind magic attacker:
- 5★: Barbariccia, Lunera (Awk)
- 4★: Hope (Awk)
- 3★: Shantotto
- Even without wind damage, it doesn't take much to defeat Elafikeras. As a point of reference: A Blossom Sage Sakura with 1000 MAG (counting buff) dual-casting Quick Final Thunder every turn, capping chains, will deal between 70,720,000 - 83,200,000 damage in 7 turns, without any imperil.
- 2 Shantotto and 2 Hope (Awk) with 400-650 MAG are enough to defeat this trial, see this video.
Bug[]
- "Multi-Horn" may cause an AoE physical cover to not trigger.
