| Enemy | Weakness |

| Soul of Baramos | Ice, Lightning |
| Number of Actions | |
|---|---|
| 2 ~ 3 Turns | |
| Move | Effect |
| Attack | Attack with a chance to paralyze |
| Desperate Attack | Critical basic attack |
| Kaboom | Strong explosion damage to party |
| Dazzle | Chance to dazzle party |
| Inferno | Strong Fire Breath damage to party |
| Blasto | Chance to remove target from battle |
| Thwack | Chance to instakill party |

Similar to the Soul of Baramos fight in the Tower of Rubiss, you want to wear Fire and Spell resistant equipment to reduce the damage of Inferno and Kaboom respectively.
| Equipment | Location | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Ice Shield | Mur | 3,100 G |
| Magic Shield | Lanson | 4,300 G |
| Epic Apron | Immigrant Town | 10,500 G |
| Asbestos Earrings | 3,300 G | |
| Dragon Shield | Tantegel | 6,200 G |
| Dragon Mail | 13,800 G | |
| Dragon Dojo Duds | Kol | 31,500 G |
| Flowing Dress | 26,000 G | |
| Shimmering Dress | Zoma's Citadel | - |
| Hero's Shield | Talontear Tunnel | - |
| Auroral Armour | Tower of Rubiss | - |
The Hero's Shield and Auroral Armour are extremely powerful Hero-exclusive equipment.

Since Thwack can instantly kill party members if it lands, you want to make sure that you bring measures to protect against it. It's recommended to put Dieamends in your bag to absorb the hit, but you can also use anti-instakill equipment.
How to Get Dieamend and Effects
| Equipment | Location | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Holy Talisman | Immigrant Town | 3,500 G |
| Angel's Robe | 9,700 G | |
| Sacred Amulet | Tower of Rubiss | - |
The Sacred Amulet is exclusive to the Hero.

On top of using Fire and Spell resistant gear, you'll want to cast Insulatle and Magic Barrier to reduce the damage of the boss' attacks. You can also cast Kabuff if you wish, but you still need to use some turns to heal your party.

Even with an expanded moveset, Soul of Baramos still uses a lot of spells. Make sure to seal their spells with Fizzle, the Staff of Rain, or a Staff of Antimagic so that you only have to worry about its regular attacks and Inferno.

Like the previous boss, you want to use the Monster Wrangler's combo of Wild Side and Monster Pile-On as your main form of damage. This bypasses Dazzle so you can freely use this move without worrying about it missing.
