Chariot and Justice Recommended Party Setup

Character	Best Skills	Explanation
Protagonist	・Bufula ・Zionga ・Tarunda ・Rakunda ・Vacuum Slash	The Protagonist will debuff only the Tank form, to increase damage against its resistances. He will also provide support physical and elemental damage to either boss whenever needed.
Aigis	・Diarama ・Swift Strike ・Cruel Attack ・Arrow Rain	Aigis should focus physical skills on Justice. She is also capable of healing herself with Diarama due to her high HP-draining skills. It is also easy to build up her Theurgy due to only requiring the usage of physical skills.
Yukari	・Garula ・Magaru ・Diarama ・Media ・Recarm	Yukari is your primary healer and should focus on healing your party and providing support damage with Garula against Chariot. Yukari can also quickly fill up her Theurgy with this lineup due to both companions using HP for their skills and healing them will fill Yukari's Theurgy gauge.
Junpei	・Agilao ・Assault Dive ・Torrent Shot ・Vacuum Slash	Junpei is your primary damage dealer and will consistently deal multi-target physical damage with Vacuum Slash which is important when separating Chariot and Justice.

How to Beat Chariot and Justice

The following tips can help you beat Chariot in battle.

1. UseTheurgy Skills to Separate the Bosses
2. Defeat Chariot and Justice at the Same Time
3. Guard Against Charged Attacks
4. Protect Against Mahama Attacks

Use Theurgy Skills to Separate The Boss

Using powerful attacks on the Tank-Form Shadow will sever the link between the Chariot and Justice, allowing you to attack them individually.

Theurgy Skills Guide

Defeat Chariot and Justice at the Same Time

After the Tank-Form Shadow has separated into the Chariot and Justice, do not defeat them one by one. They have the ability to resurrect each other, which could prolong the fight indefinitely.

In order to win the fight, you have to defeat both bosses at the same time, or at least immediately one after the other, before the surviving one has the chance to use Restore on its next turn.

Use Multi-Target Attacks

Because of the rough win conditions, it is recommended to use multi-target attacks, like Vacuum Slash, Maragi, Mabufu, and the like, so that you may defeat both bosses simultaneously.

Guard Against Charged Attacks

The Tank-Form Shadow targets one of your party members and shoots an Armor-Piercing Shell on its next turn. This does a lot of single-target damage, so make sure to order that party member to Guard.

Additionally, when it says it is loading grenades, it will throw a High-Explosive Shell on its next turn, dealing Piercing damage, which can Crit you. Guard against this as well, and take this opportunity to heal up and buff yourself before the boss splits into two.

Protect Against Mahama Attacks

Justice can cast Mahama on your whole party, which has a chance to instantly kill anyone hit by it. Make sure to have a Homunculus item on hand to guard against instakills and have Protagonist equip a Persona that nullifies Light attacks.
