How to Beat General Rou
Utilize Vengeful Blade Skill
Having to face General Rou alone, it will be harder to figure out his weaknesses. General Rou has a relatively low shield value, so having Vengeful Blade, a passive counter attack that depletes shield points, can help you break him easily. This will allow you to save your boosts and latent power for greater attacks when he is broken.
Warrior Job Guide: Guild, License, and Skills
Bring Heals Beforehand
Since Hikari will face General Rou alone, it's best to stock up on some recovery items, be it for HP, SP, BP, or Latent Power.
This will speed up the flow of combat, allowing Hikari to be able to execute his skills and attacks with ease.
Make Hikari an Apothecary
If you need help surviving Generael Rou's attacks, then you can make Hikari an Apothecary. This allows him to use Warrior's Stout Wall, which increases his defense, in combination with Apothecary's Replenish Health, which regenerates his health each turn.
