==Battle and Strategy== | |||
===Miguel's Attacks and Elements=== | |||
Often considered one of the hardest bosses in the game (if not the hardest), Miguel possesses extremely powerful physical and elemental attacks, as well as strong support magic. | |||
He uses the white element [[PhotonBeam]] for a fair amount of damage to a single character, and uses the support magic [[TurnBlack]], [[WeakMinded]], [[StrongMinded]] and [[AntiBlack]] (all of which are White elemental). | |||
His most deadly attack for most of this battle, however, is his [[HolyDragSwd]], which does an extremely high amunt of White Element damage to a single target. The HolyDragSwd will often kill a character in a single swoop if no buffs or debuffs are used, particularly Lynx and Harle due to them being Black innates. | |||
When he runs low on HP, he will always use the powerful [[MeteorShower]], and then after a brief lull in activity will unleash [[HolyLight]], both of which do large amounts of White elemental damage to all party members (particularly the latter). HolyLight can be [[Trap]]ped, so if you have a trap HolyLight element in your posession, it is highly recommended to use it in this battle, both to completely nullify this powerful spell and to add it to your spell list. | |||
===Defeating Miguel=== | |||
To defeat Miguel, while it may be tempting to focus on aggressively unleashing powerful black elements with [[Lynx]] (and [[Harle]] if she is in the party), the safest way to defeat this boss is to use [[Diminish]] together with [[WeakMinded]]. This will greatly reduce Miguel's magic attack, and thus, the potency of his deadly HolyDragSwd (as well as MeteorShower and HolyLight). Using [[StrongMinded]] on Lynx or Harle can be done to increase their magic defenses even further, though this probably won't be necessary. From here, focus on physical attacks and keeping HP high by healing, occasionally using Elements to prevent the Elemental Field in the upper left corner from becoming all white (good options for the latter are the Red elemental [[Strengthen]] to buff physical attack power and the Green elemental [[EagleEye]] to buff accuracy, as well as Blue and Green Healing Elements like [[CurePlus]] and [[HealAll]]) | |||
Be warned that since Diminish is a black element, it is vulnerable to AntiBlack (which makes a character unable to use Black elements for a set amount of time), so try to use it early in the battle if you are going to use it (alternatively, have [[Daemon Charm]]s equipped to prevent Anti-Black). | |||
Lastly, when using white elements like [[RecoverAll]], WeakMinded and StrongMinded, be mindful of the Elemental grid in the upper left corner - be careful not to make the grid all white if you think Miguel is about to use HolyDragSwd (or MeteorShower + HolyLight). | |||
