 Agrias |

Both teams in this battle are built for offense, with Ramza leading Team A and Agrias leading Team B. Ramza’s group has the advantage of an extra slot and longer range thanks to Mustadio, while Agrias’ side runs lighter with just her and the Mystic.
Each team has its own disabler, Mustadio for Team A and the Mystic for Team B, who should focus on shutting down the Black Mage in their respective areas. Since Team B has fewer members, make sure they’re well-equipped with healing and revival options.

Walkthrough Guide
| # | Step by Step Objectives |
|---|---|
| 1 |  Defeat the Black Mages First Take out the Black Mages before anyone else, as they can deal heavy AoE damage. Use Mustadio on Team A and your Mystic on Team B to Disable the Black Mages with Arm Shot and Hesitation respectively, then follow up with attacks from Ramza or Agrias. Eliminating them early will make the rest of the fight much safer. Black Mages tend to stay near elevated spots so positioning your Black Mage to counter with its elevation ignoring spells can take them down even quicker. |
| 2 |  Clear the Other Knights and Archers Once the mages are gone, shift your attention to the Knights and Archers. The Knights near the floodgate levers will hold their ground, so you can isolate and eliminate the ranged units first. Although the mission’s main objective is to open the gate by pulling the levers, it’s easier and safer to defeat all enemies first. Doing so prevents counterattacks while interacting with the switches, and clears the field for a smooth finish. |
| 3 |  Protect Your Party This fight can get rough if you’re underleveled. Make sure everyone can heal themselves, especially Team B (Agrias and the Mystic) by equipping secondary abilities like White Magicks or Items. If you have Angel Rings, equip them for Reraise to survive sudden spell bursts or crits. Once all enemies are defeated, pull the floodgate levers to release the water and complete the battle. |
