The Montarian Soldier will provide support to the Icebeast Chimenzahn that can make your battle harder than it has to be. Defeating him first will streamline the battle against the beast more and will ensure that Mage Mirror won't be a constant problem.

Montarian Spear Soldier Weakness

The Montarian Soldier will cast Mage Mirror on the Icebeast Chimenzahn, applying a magic barrier on it that repels 1 magic attack. Remove this barrier by using Makarabreak from the Warlock Archetype or use a Mindbreak Hammer to dispel it.

How to Unlock Warlock Archetype

Use Fire and Wind Skills
