Bringing a balanced split team is key here. Team A handles Marach directly with strong offense and durability, while Team B provides ranged magic, disabling skills, and status support to control the battlefield. Mustadio’s Arm and Leg Shot keeps dangerous units in check, while the White Mage ensures survival and crowd control, and the Black Mage softens clustered enemies with AoE spells.

Walkthrough Guide
| # | Step by Step Objectives |
|---|---|
| 1 |  Prepare for Consecutive Battles This fight is directly followed by the Riovanes Castle Keep battle. You won’t be able to resupply or change gear, so stock up on items, especially Phoenix Downs, before entering. Make sure you’ve unlocked Auto-Potion ability, a good -ja elemental spell (Firaja, Blizzaja, Thundaja), and the best equipment the game can offer so far. |
| 2 |  Equip Safeguard Before Starting Knights in this fight love spamming Rend abilities, which can destroy your weapons and armor. To avoid being crippled early, equip the Safeguard support ability on crucial units like Ramza and Agrias. |
| 3 |  Team A Confronts Marach Marach will advance on the bridge, so use Ramza’s Ninja speed and Martial Arts ranged attacks alongside Agrias’ Holy Knight skills to pressure him quickly. Watch out for the Knights nearby as they’ll try to protect him, so disable or pick them off when possible. |
| 4 |  Team B Controls the Right Flank The rest of your party should secure the right side of the battlefield. Have your White Mage dual-role by keeping Mystic Arts equipped for utility (Disable, Confusion, Blindness) while still healing. Your Black Mage can target enemies on the high ground with -ga spells, while Mustadio pins down Archers with Leg Shot to prevent them from continually attacking your team. Once all enemies are defeated, the battle will end in your victory, launching you into the next battle inside the Castle Keep. ►Riovanes Castle Keep Walkthrough |
