Do you feel like putting in absolutely no effort whatsoever into the final boss? Say less, young blood! Este Dia, we’re gonna punch her right where it hurts most and get you that Slayer achievement with no effort!
La puesta en marcha
Believe it or not, incredible cheapness requires a bit of setup! If you’re going to absolutely wail on the final superboss and make her look like a chump, it’ll take a bit of work first! Por qué, it takes so much work that you may as well go beat her for real! But you and me, champ, we’re built different. We optimise our laziness, not our strength.
So here’s what you do.
You will need the following:
– Recuperación + Prevent Commands (Buy them at the Terminal)
– Youkai Grimoire: Energía (Found in the Upper Stratum of the Dreamer’s Monolith)
– Youkai Grimoire: Solitario (Found by battering the ♥♥♥♥ out of Medicine Melancholy in the Nameless Hill)
– Junko
Así es, you’re going it solo, baby! So what’s the need for Junko? Her affinities! She heals from all physical damage and is weak to all magic. Completely and utterly retarded, you say? Estoy de acuerdo, but even a wonky clock hand is right… oh, a veces.
Mirad, your Sumireko setup!
Whatever magic you want to use isn’t super important as you’ll barely be using it. The main things you want here are:
– Byakuren’s respec – dump points in Agility until it reaches at least 70, then dump into Vitality and Intelligence, and then dump whatever’s left into Magic (I didn’t bother to respec because I was already close enough and I’m a god gamer).
– Dai-para and Dai-atma (optional but can make it go faster (this strategy otherwise takes eighty years)).
– APAHANI-JALA (No ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ forget this)!
In case I need to spell it out for you by now, you essentially have to defeat the superboss by reflecting all her magic attacks back at her and absorbing all her physical attacks!
For equipment, there’s nothing too important here, aside from Mima’s Crescent Staff if you feel like taking cheeky potshots (like an epic pro gamer). Anything that boosts magic defense will be in your favour.
The Encounter
So get your Grimoires fired up, steal Junko’s ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ soul and go batter Shinki!
The strategy here is super engaging, for the first turn you cast Apahani-jala, watch her hit herself when she decides to use magic and heal you when she decides to use physical attacks.
For the second turn, you cast Apahani-jala, watch her hit herself when she decides to use magic and heal you when she decides to use physical attacks.
For the third turn, you cast Apahani-jala, watch her hit herself when she decides to use magic and heal you when she decides to use physical attacks.
For the fourth- okay you get the point. Shinki will literally just kill herself for you with this strat.
Now this’ll win you the game on its own, maybe you’ll have to use a few Prevent commands to chug a Gfuel to still have enough magic points for Apahani-jala by the battle’s end but for that to be a necessity you’d have to get pretty unlucky with how often she casts magic spells if you’re properly prepared.
But there’s one problem: este ♥♥♥♥ es ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ boring, so here’s my hand-picked…
Pro Gamer Strats
Shinki will gradually fill up the SP bar for you, so when it’s full you can use Recovery or Prevent, both of which totally deplete it. Prevent leaves a window for you to do literally anything you want, so you can do the Griddy on Shinki completely free of consequence. Recovery is a good free heal for the ballsy stud strats, speaking of which…
If you’re a ballsy stud like me, you’ll see turns where Sumi has full health as an opportunity to cast Dai-atma to make Shinki do more damage to… herself, or Dai-para to let Sumi survive a turn’s worth of spells directly to her forehead in the near future until Shinki resets the debuffs. You only really stand a chance of dying here if you go in with non-maxed Intelligence and poor HP and you’re unlucky enough to receive 3 magic attacks from her in one turn. Just play it safe, estúpido. But safe is boring. So play it ballsy, estúpido.
Conclusión
You’re laughing. You just reduced the game’s superboss to wet tissue paper and you’re laughing.
