Destroying the Abscess in Konan 2nd Block

The Abscess will spawn 3 Baphomet that are all weak to Light attacks. Bring Hama users like Cironnup but be cautious when bringing demons that are weak to Fire as Baphomet can strike your team with Maragion.

Destroying the Abscess in North Shinagawa

You will face a Thoth which is weak to Dark attacks. Bring demons with Dark attacks like Shiki-Ouji and Loa to target its weakness. The enemy doesn't really have an attack to be careful of so just use a Magatsuhi skill and finish it as soon as possible.

A Golden Opportunity Bosses and Strategies

Lahmu

Recommended Level: 38
Tips and Strategy
Bring Chakra Drops or substitute demons First form is weak to Force and Light Second form is weak to Fire

Lahmu is now in his true form and is much stronger than the first fight. Bring demons that have high proficiency in Force or Light attacks like Quetzalcoatl and Jatayu (for the first form) and Fire attacks like Eligor (for the second form).

Due to the boss having 2 phases, we recommend bringing some Chakra Drops with you or substitute demons (or both) in cases you run out of MP or your allies get wiped out.

How to Beat Lahmu

Yuzuru and Hayataro

Recommended Level: 38
Tips and Strategy
Yuzuru will always revive Hayataro when they go down Hayataro is weak to Force and Dark Yuzuru is weak to Fire

During the fight, Hayataro will taunt you to only attack him while Yuzuru continuously uses Elemental Shards on your party. You'll need to take down Hayataro first to make Yuzuru vulnerable to attacks. Once Hayataro goes down, Yuzuru will revive them and you'll need to take down them again to expose Yuzuru once more.

Remember to bring Fire, Dark, and Force attacks since Yuzuru is weak to Fire while Hayataro is weak to the other two. Also, save your highest damage attacks and Magatsuhi Skills for when Hayataro is gone so you can finish off Yuzuru as quickly as possible.
