Caina Door Complete Guide and Walkthrough

Antenora Story Walkthrough

	Objectives
1	Similar to Caina, you'll have access to your full party roster. We highly recommend having Yukari and Koromaru in your party as there are several enemies weak to Wind and Darkness ahead.
2	Your first checkpoint is the 10th floor of Antenora where you'll be fighting Frivolous Maya.
3	After defeating Frivolous Maya, you'll enter the second layer of Antenora. Your next checkpoint will be on floor 19 and you'll be fighting Death Castle and Avenger Knight.
4	There will be no bosses after Death Castle and Avenger Knight. Head deeper until you reach the 25th floor to clear Antenora.

Ptolomea Story Walkthrough

	Objectives
1	The elites and enemies here have a resistance to physical attacks, but several of them are weak to Lightning and Ice. Akihiko and Mitsuru are highly recommended as a party member with one healer added to the mix (Yukari or Ken).
2	Make your way through Ptolomea and head until you reach the 7th floor. This is your first checkpoint and going to the next floor will pit you against Slaughter Drive and Spastic Turret. Keep your current roster as they are weak to Ice and Electric respectively.
3	For the next layout, enemies are mostly weak to Strike, Lightning, and Fire. Consider swapping out Mitsuru for Junpei to get a solid physical damage dealer that can dish out fire damage for this part.
4	Your next checkpoint is Floor 16. Replenish your resources by exiting the Abyss of Time or by using the clock and spending Fragment before resuming your journey.
5	You'll fight Acheron Seeker and Ice Raven which are weak to physical attacks (Strike and Slash respectively). Acheron Seeker is also weak to Fire and Lightning while also possessing Evade Slash. We highly recommend Akihiko, Junpei, and Ken as Acheron will be draining your resources so characters that can hit their weaknesses while recovering their SP are recommended for the fight.
6	Enemies in the next layer after the boss fight are mostly weak to Lightning, Fire, Ice, and Physical attacks. Koromaru or Junpei is a great addition to your party as well as Akihiko or Ken. Mitsuru or Metis are also great options to consider.
7	Progress until the 25th floor to clear Ptolomea. There are no more bosses after Acheron Seeker and Ice Raven so feel free to spend your resources to clear the enemies you encounter along the way.

Judecca Story Walkthrough

	Objectives
1	Enemies in the area are weak to Strike, Fire, Lightning, and Wind. Yukari is the recommended healer for this area while Akihiko and Junpei are great damage dealers to include.
2	Make your way to Judecca B7 to find your first checkpoint. Heading 1 floor lower will pit you against the Killer Twins and Red Sigil which are weak to Fire and Ice respectively.
3	Moving forward, the enemies' weaknesses will vary and consist of Darkness, Light, Fire, Slash, and Pierce. Koromaru and Ken are great party members to swap over for this layer of Judecca to tackle these weaknesses. Mitsuru is a great option to consider as well due to the elites in the area being weak to Ice.
4	Make your way to B16 to find your first checkpoint. Prepare for a boss fight on the next floor against Reckoning Dice and Eternal Sand. Both can block all elemental attacks and have no weaknesses so bring your strongest physical damage dealers. They can also inflict a team-wide poison attack so a healer that can purge these ailments like Yukari is also great to have.
5	On the next layer, you'll find enemies weak to Strike, Slash, Pierce, Light, Electric, Ice, and Dark. Ken is one of the best characters you can have in this layer as well as Koromaru once again. Metis is a great option too for strike damage as well as covering your team for Ice and potentially, even wind damage types.
6	Continue making your way until B25 using your chosen team to complete the whole Judecca dungeon.

Empyrean Story Walkthrough

	Objectives
1	Enemies in the area are weak to Fire, Ice, Wind, Lightning, Darkness, and Strike. With how late the game goes, you can pretty much draft any party members as long as you cover the missing elemental attacks your party can't provide but we still recommend Yukari, Metis, and Akihiko for the first layer as these three can cover the 4 main elements with their kit.
2	Push your way until B8 and change your current roster to be more physical damage-focused. Head to B9 to encounter the Musha Squad which has several immunities to elemental attacks but all will have no resistance to any physical damage attacks.
3	Enemy weaknesses range from all elemental types in this layer. Metis and Akihiko are great options as few enemies here negate strike damage. Yukari is also a great healer due to her SP conservative playstyle as well as the layer having few enemies weak to wind.
4	Push your way until B18 to find your next checkpoint. On the next floor, you'll fight Neo Minotaur and Rebellious Cyclops. Both have no weaknesses and both can nullify your Fire, Ice, and Wind attacks.
5	Enemies in the next layer will have Fire, Ice, Electric, Light, Slash, and Pierce weaknesses. Ken will be strong as a healer in this layer while Mitsuru will also prove invaluable not just because of her ice attacks but also her ailments against enemies with no weaknesses. Koromaru or Jumpei are both great choices as the last member to deal fire damage.
6	Head to B26 to find your last checkpoint and prepare for an upcoming boss fight.

Colosseo Purgatorio Story Walkthrough

	Objectives
1	There will be no exploration in this part of the story. Instead, it will be three rounds of combat between your teammates. You'll start your first fight against Akihiko and Ken who are immune to Lightning and Light and use the same move respectively. We highly recommend preparing a Persona with healing capabilities as you'll be playing only with Metis for the upcoming battles.
2	Your next fight will be against Koromaru and Junpei so prepare Personas that can negate or resist Fire, Physical, and Darkness damage.
3	Lastly, you'll be fighting against Yukari and Mitsuru which are strong magic users. Prepare Personas that can block Ice and Wind to easily win the fight.
