How to Beat Nuwa (Nahobino)

Weak to Fire Mainly uses Electric attacks Destroy the Thunder Bits immediately No need to use status debuffs

Destroy the Thunder Bits Immediately

Nuwa will occasionally use Electrify which will charge one of ther Thunder Bits. Take out these Thunder Bits as soon as possible with a couple of multi-target attacks, especially if two or more are present.

Nuwa will respond each time you destroy a Thunder Bit with Lightning Pulse, which deals weak Electric damage. Not something you should really worry about.

Each Thunder Bit will strengthen the next Rising Storm Dragon that Nuwa will use. If they use this move with all four Thunder Bits charged, it's likely that your party will get wiped out, even if you take defensive actions.

No Need to Use Debuffs

Avoid wasting your turn icons on applying status debuffs to Nuwa as these won't help much in this boss fight and Nuwa can easily cleanse them with Dekunda. However, you can keep spamming stat buffs on your team since Nuwa doesn't have Dekaja.

Best Demons to Use Against Nuwa (Nahobino)

Reflect Electric attacks with Odin

Nuwa and Shohei's Nahobino form can use both Force and Electric attacks, but will mostly use Electric. Odin is an excellent choice for the attacker role in this fight as he can deal heavy damage with his Physical attacks as well as reflect Electric attacks, which will instantly end Nuwa's turn.

You can also give him Null Force just in case Nuwa decides to use their Force skills.

Lakshmi as additional support

Lakshmi's Luster Candy is a neat Support skill that can raise all of your party's stats. She can also use Mediarahan to fully heal your allies, though you'll need to keep an eye out on her MP when using both skills

Since Lakshmi is weak to Electric, give her a Null Elec from Lachesis through fusion.

Other choices for attacker

If you need more firepower, you can bring in Uriel who is resistant to Electric and has +5 Fire skill potential. Uriel's base level is 82 so you don't have to grind a lot unlike the other choices, Mara and Seth.

You can unlock Uriel for fusion by completing the subquest The Holy Ring.
