  • Sweet Breath: Inflicts sleep status to all monsters

  • Act Twice

Be Prepared Against Sleep Status

DQM3 - Succubat Sleep
This Succubat's only noteworthy attack is its Sweet Breath, which puts all your monsters to sleep. Sleep can take long to recover from, so prepare a monster with Cock-a-Doodle-Doo, a skill that cures all allies of sleep.

Make sure to carry some Smelling Salts as well, an item that cures sleep; this is for your Cock-a-Doodle-Doo user in case it falls asleep.

Chimaera has the Paramedic talent, which gives it access to Cock-a-Doodle-Doo to counter Succubat's Sweet Breath.

This is a simple balanced party with a bunch of powerhouses and no dedicated counter to Succubat. The Succubat boss isn't strong and any decent party like this should have no trouble with defeating it.
