Battle 21: Lionel Castle Keep Walkthrough
Walkthrough Guide
| # | Step by Step Objectives |
|---|---|
| 1 |  Prepare for Status Heavy Attacks The Chapter 2 finale pits you against Cúchulainn, a Zodiac Demon whose skills inflict nasty status effects. Ramza’s Purification and Revive as a Monk help greatly, and your Chemist’s items ensure quick cures. ► All Status Effects Explained |
| 2 |  Spread Out Your Units Cúchulainn’s AoE skills can cripple your entire team if clumped. Spread out to reduce overlap while still staying within range to pressure him. Even with spacing, the arena is small enough that your ranged units can keep attacking safely. |
| 3 |  Immobilize the Boss Early Have Mustadio use Leg Shot right away to Immobilize Cúchulainn. Cutting his movement keeps him in place and buys your team breathing room. Though he can still cast, he can't move and attack you in close combat. |
| 4 |  Exploit Holy Weakness Cúchulainn is weak to Holy, making Agrias’ Holy Sword skills invaluable. Focus on spamming Hallowed Bolt while Ramza and your Chemist handle healing and remedies. Your Black Mage should have at least one -ga level spell (Firaga, Thundaga, or Blizzaga) for solid damage, but keep the Items job command ready as backup if your support is overwhelmed. |
