Mandrakes can use Quick Naps really quickly and your only way to prevent it is to save ATB Gauge and use Abilities before they can use the move. Use a quick Ability like Cloud's Triple Slash or Firebolt Blade to cancel their move.

After activating Activation Intel 4: Plains Tower, this Fiend Intel will appear directly to the near left of Plains Tower.
How to Pressure Mandrake |
---|
Exploiting its elemental weakness will pressure it. Inflicting enough damage will cause it to nap, but hitting it with powerful offensive abilities will wake it up again. |
Pressure Mandrake by casting fire or ice spells, so you will need to equip a Fire and Ice Materia in order to cast spells that are strong against these enemies.
Casting Fire and Ice spells will pressure the enemy easily. Make sure to avoid using a character with high magic stat like Aerith as Mandrakes have low HP and they can be easily killed without being staggered.
How to Pressure and Stagger Enemies
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: Is There a Difficulty Trophy?
If you fail an objective such as pressuring the enemy, you can always retry the Fiend Intel by holding the Triangle button.
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.
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.
