Talk:Wicked Peaks/New Trial of the Demon

I don't think Darklord can solo Diabolos and I guess 999turns is the max then the fight ends.

I had a full evade Darklord with Genji Shield set him to auto attack and went to sleep but when I woke up I was back on stage select without the clear. The second time I set Darklord on auto and went on about my day then came back to same thing on the stage select screen. Now maybe equip Darklord with Phoenix and hope he doesn't kill everyone then solo maybe possible.

There's another threshold at 30%. He dispels all your party's buffs. You lose cover, provoke, reraise, and everything else. He then casts it again every few turns so even if you survive the threshold and come back from it, he'll use it again later. If you can, burst him down from 31% to 0

Super easy win, ~15rounds by FalconX

> Party: Victor Marchenko (def875 +peonix esper), Chow (dark220resist +diablos), Barbaracia (mag924 +demon banisher), Lotus mage fina, RIKKU (lb build gear) (mvp). friend: beach time dark fina (mag1500+)

Strategy: Heres the good part > Rikku > mix > hazard shell for 100% blind on boss, I also had tank w/ sunbeam equip ability for backup. But.. If blind diablos his physical attacks are semi-canceled, he will get one in but rarely.

> So got 80, 60, 40, 20. You will want to use chows stop resist on the rounds you get to those or make sure still up. Chow will take no damage w/ 220resist, I put hypernull all up also. Victor uses his implanted rebreather for stats- removal. Lotus mage fina keeps reraise on everyone mainly voke tank.

Just keep blinded, chows magic cover, tank provoke & reraise, & spamga tornados x2 w/ max magic boost, can probably do about 11% dmg per round. Got all missions except 5group. I put lotus mage fina & victors lb in at the last 4%hp dmg chain to get cutsceen & mission win. Took me 3tries. Have fun!!!!! --Gogamer2018 (talk) 18:23, 13 September 2018 (UTC)

 * A guaranteed success... over 999 turns (the fight will continue after turn 999, with just a few display glitches):
 * Veritas of the Dark equipped with
 * 100% physical evasion from Assassin's Vest (10%), Quick Assault (10%) x2, True Spirit of Freedom (15%), First Strike (5%) for countering with physical attack, Ring of the Lucii (50%) x2 for countering with light magic damage and MP recovery,
 * 100% Death resistance from Genji Shield,
 * 50% Stop resistance from Shiva,
 * Increased physical and magic damage against demons (50%) from Cursed Mouthpiece,
 * A great sword of light element, and
 * Dual Slash with limitless MP
 * Xon x4 playing Lie Low (0 MP) by default, using Phoenix Down on Veritas of the Dark in case he is stopped (by 30% chance) at the four thresholds, 80%, 60%, 40%, and 20%. They are expendable.
 * One of them can evoke Carbuncle after Veritas of the Dark survives the last threshold, 20%.
 * 70% (=100% - 60% stop * 50% stop resistance) chance of success for Veritas of the Dark to solo.
