Nord Mines Tips and Strategies

Best Team: 2 Mages and a Warrior

Recommended Characters to Bring
Protagonist			Strohl			Grius
Mage			Mage			Warrior

Team Strategy

The first section of Nord Mines, leading up to the Captain Klinger boss fight, is fairly straightforward, but the second part of the dungeon requires a well-planned strategy.

To prepare, have both the Protagonist and Strohl switch to the Mage Archetype, while Grius should take on the Warrior Archetype. This is important because Seekers are vulnerable to fire, and most enemies here use Fire-based skills. With this formation, defeating the dragon at the end of the dungeon will also become much easier.

Best Archetypes

Switch Archetypes in the Akademia

At the beginning of the mission outside Nord Mines, only the Protagonist will have an Archetype (Seeker), while Strohl and Grius will use physical skills based on their default abilities.

During the battle with Captain Klinger, Strohl will unlock the Warrior Archetype. After this fight, you'll enter the Akademia with Gallica, where you'll unlock the Mage Archetype by forming a bond with her. This also allows you to assign an Archetype to Grius.

Speak with More to assign Archetypes to your characters as needed.
