How to Not Turn Into a Frog

Avoid the Toadfrog Tune's Green Mist

Avoid turning into a frog by avoiding Toadfrog Tune attack. The enemy frogs will release a green mist to the ground and must be dodged in order to not transform.

This can easily be avoided as it will take a while before the green mist transforms you into a frog so you can dodge them pretty quickly.

Play as Barret to Maintain Distance

If you want to play safe from getting turned into a frog, we recommend using long-ranged characters such as Barret and use his Overcharge unique ability and his other abilities to deal with the enemies.

How to Beat Pastel Amphidex

Use Ice Magic to Pressure Pastel Amphidex

The Pastel Amphidex is weak to Ice and will pressure them, so we recommend equipping an Ice Materia to cast Ice Spells.

How to Get the Ice Materia

Choose Dynamic Difficulty if Your Level is Way Higher than the Fiend Intel

If you are trying to pressure the enemy and your level is way too high, there is a chance that you'll defeat the enemy even before pressuring them. To solve this, switch to Dynamic difficulty as the enemies' level will scale with you, providing a challenge and an opportunity to complete the Fiend Intel's mission

Dynamic Difficulty and Difficulty Settings

Retry if You Fail an Objective

If you fail an objective such as pressuring the enemy, you can always retry the Fiend Intel by holding the Triangle button.

Equip Assess Materia to Scan Enemy Information

It is highly recommended to equip the Assess Materia and Assess the Fiend to figure out their pressure conditions and also what their weaknesses or resistances are.

How to Get the Assess Materia

Scan Enemies to Unlock Chadley's Biological Intel Combat Simulator Missions

Scanning Fiends will also contribute to unlocking some Biological Intel missions as Chadley will require you to assess a certain amount of enemies within a region in order to unlock a Biological Intel combat simulator missions.
