How to Beat Sage of Marbule

Understanding the Sage's Attack Pattern

Sage Photon Beam

It's easy to predict the Sage's moves, since he only spams Turn Black and Photon Beam in succession when not doing physical attacks.

While this could be a problem for your Black-innate characters, this can easily be remedied by casting Diminish to halve the Sage's Elemental damage.

Go All Out With Lynx's Tech Skills

Lynx Glide Hook

Given that the Sage of Marbule is a White-innate boss, Lynx's Tech Skills will prove highly effective for this fight.

Unleash the strongest Tech Skills and Elemental attacks of your characters and the battle will be done in no time!

General Tips

Taking Advantage of Field Effects

Field Guide

This battle is a perfect example of using Field Effects to one's advantage.

It is highly recommended to monitor Field Effects as it can influence the damage you deal and receive to and from your foes.

In this case, since the Sage of Marbule loves casting Turn Black on your party members, consider using Black Elemental attacks to exploit the Sage's weakness!
