Skill Rundown

• S1
• C1
• C2
• S2
• S3
• S4

Heavy Despair

Be careful not to trigger C1 or C2! You will want this skill to go off first, so that it wears off before the Fiend buffs stack on your allies.

Shed Skin

Trigger: Have any stat buff on any of your characters.

Ideally you should wait until S1 before triggering this skill, so that the fiend's DMG reduction wears off sooner in the fight. Have your water DPS units take this hit, so they can be buffed by C2 and S2.

Devour Pain

Trigger: Stack 7 chains on any tile.

Have your water units take this hit for the buff!

Crushing Yoma Power

Have your DPS units take this hit as well. At this point, all of the Fiend buffs have been stacked, so nuke the fiend until S4!

Surging Yoma Power

Have your DPS units dodge this skill, or they will get their buffs dispelled.

Rivers of Blood

A team wipe! Your next team then takes the stage as the Fiend loops back to S1 and refreshes its conditional skills.

Hunting the Fiend

S1 → C1 → C2 → S2 → S3 → S4

Simply allow S1 to be cast at the start of the battle, then trigger C1 and C2.

Have your DPS units tank C1, C2, and S2 to stack the Fiend's buffs, and have them dodge the dispel from S3. The nuke turns are after S2 and S3.

DPS Review

Yumi (×7 AoE) — This Fiend Hunt was obviously made for her, whose kit shines in longer content. Yumi's DoT will ramp up to 30 stacks by the end of the battle.

Morpeah (×7 / ×4 AoE) — Morpeah might struggle this Hunt because her summons don't inherit any buffs (or debuffs) from her. This means that she can only set up 2 fully buffed pairs of personas for the nuke turn.

Scheherazade (×7 AoE on Lapis Witch) — Schera has great multipliers, and the weak points are primed for Lapis Witch, but she will definitely pale compared to Yumi, who easily outscales her because of the DoT stacks.

Roxy (×11 AoE) — Best AoE for this Fiend, but Roxy having downtime on her DMG output is a huge bane when this Fiend has 2 nuke turns.

Sylvia (×6 AoE) — The only physical option at this point in time. She can take advantage of her counters against the Fiend's S3, which hits 5 times. She should be a solid option.
