Preparation

The thing about this boss is if you don't have a proper setup, you are surely lose during the second phase.

Our hard work doing side quests will be paid off here.

  • Recommended Party: Leo, Ez, Valrika
  • Unlock Jewel+ for everyone. This allows you to equip second gemstone.
  • Equip Phantom Quartz on everyone.
  • Equip Snow Quartz on Leo and Ez.

IMPORTANT: Phantom Quartz is very important because it prevents "Curse" effect. Curse is one of the worst ailment you could possibly have. It prevents you from applying any positive effect such as healing, buffing, items etc. * Note: Snow Quartz** is optional, but it helps to prevent petrify.

PLEASE read the strategy section before fighting the boss.

Boss: Chaos Basilisk (B-32)

2805. Boss - Chaos Basilisk
2805. Boss - Chaos Basilisk
Steal:
  • (I-07) SP Capsule
Strategy:
  • This boss is no joke without Phantom Quartz. After it's HP drops below 50% it'll cast its domain "World of Death". In the "World of Death", you'll be effected by the "Curse" effect at the end of every turn which mean that it will remove any positive effect from your team at the start of its turn, however, you can still heal and use items normally during your turns.
  • Valrika's "Enchanting Mist" is the second most important thing to beat this boss, especially during the second phase. Apply this "Blind" effect on this beast to prevent it from using deadly skills such as "Petrifying Stare" (when HP above 50%) and "Death Stare" (instant death) (when HP below 50%).
  • Valrika as a support role for debuff prioritizing "Enchanting Mist", "Break", "Crush" in this order. DO NOT let the "Blind" effect runs out I recommend you cast Enchanting Mist again when it has 1 turn left.
  • Ez or whoever you pick should be a healer and help buff your team.
  • Leo is your main guy to deal damage "Concentrate" + "Samidare (Fire+1)".

Once the boss is defeated, remove gemstone and re-equip your gears and party lineup back. It's time to collect items here:
