How to Beat Futsunushi

Hit Futsunushi with Dark

Futsunushi is weak to Dark, so use Mudo skills to extend your turns, then switch back to Physical attacks to conserve MP.

Use Physical-Blockers in your Party

Futsunushi only uses Physical attacks, so bring in demons who are strong against Physical. Girimekhala reflects Physical, while Siegfried absorbs Physical. You can give the Nahobino the Essence of a Fafnir or Belphegor to resist Physical.

Use a Phys Dampener After Futsunushi Draws Magatsuhi

Futsunushi uses Catastrophe the turn after he draws in Magatsuhi. Use a Phys Dampener on your party or cast Tetrakarn on an ally who does not block Physical.

Should I Choose Futsunushi or Adramelech?

Do You Need Fire or Physical?

Adramelech has an extremely powerful Agi spell, Agibarion, which does Severe Fire damage. Futsunushi has the extremely powerful Physical skill, Catastrohpe, which does Severe Physical damage. Choose whichever skill you need more in your party setup.

Choose Futsunushi for Upcoming Bosses

Adramelech will be less useful in the upcoming boss battles with Odin and Vasuki since they both cast Ice magic, which Adramelech is weak against.

Futsunushi will not be weak to any of the attacks from the upcoming bosses.
