One turn this boss
With a Ibara BS and two tornado chainers it is possible to one turn this boss. But know this, I have Ibara Ex3 and spent time building her gear for this challenge. Build Ibara for LB damage. The chainers can have almost no gear except for TMR's. And in the builder remember to specify the chain multiplier as 6.0 to see better damage numbers.

What do you need:
 * Ibara with Brave shift
 * Tornado chainer Mediena (My choice)
 * Tornado chainer Benevolent Beauty Rem (My choice)
 * Fire Damage Dealer
 * Ice Damage Dealer
 * A unit to Boast stats / apply killers


 * 1) Have your fire and ice unit imperial and deal damage for the mission
 * 2) Have the Tornado chainers queue up tornado, triple cast is helpful
 * 3) Have Ibara brave shift and ready their LB

You need to look at the timing, but you want Ibara to strike near the end of the chain to cap this boss.

A barrier has been formed
If you don't KO this boss from above 50%, you will get "A barrier has been formed" with 100% phys and mag resist. Since the wiki is missing the mechanics, I managed to find the Japanese version here: []

Long story short, you need to hit him two turns in a row with fire and ice to get rid of the mitigation.

Sacred Shield Charlotte
You will need a magic tank if you aren't one-shotting this, and SS Charlotte is your girl if you have her at NVA level, for her new cover ability which reduces damage from demons by 70%. This should stack with the other forms of mitigation. Additionally she can put a party buff of 30% mitigation, which will come in handy if you aren't skipping the 50% threshold (which means your party will start taking uncoverable magic attacks).

Furthermore, if you have EX-1, her BS form is even tankier, giving her a whopping 86% mitigation against Demons. So if you don't have her, you might want to consider looking for her on your friends list for this trial.
