Punishing Foes are challenging, completely optional bosses that can be found while exploring the game’s worlds, and are tougher than normal encounters. This page will give details on the Punishing Foe, Horus.
Horus is an agile Punishing Foe
Where to find Horus¶
Horus is a part of The Falcon’s Head quest, so it’s a good idea to have it logged before confronting it. Note that if you already defeat Horus, then get the quest after, the item will be on the ground where you fought it and will not need to fight it again.
Horus is a Punishing Foe that can be found flying in the skies above the area of Akihabara and Sotokanda in Chiyoda. There is only one specific place in which you can actually trigger the battle with Horus. Start from the Akihabara Electric Town Leyline and drop down to the ground floor, where all the Orthrus are running around. From there, head northeast and pass the Naga Raja, then look for the set of climbing blocks to your southeast. Climb to the top and there will be a rooftop to your southeast, which was where you find Miman #139. Drop down into the pit on the northern side and follow the trail up to the cliffside, which is where Horus will stop periodically. It is here that you can begin the fight with Horus.

Horus has a pretty high Agility stat, can buff its Accuracy/Evasion and also debuff yours. If you can control that in this battle, then you should be able to win easily, as you can have a lot of trouble connecting your attacks and will lose turns because of that. Horus is weak to both Force and Dark attacks, so that gives you a little leeway with your party, since you have access to two ways to gain extra turns during a round. Of course, one of the biggest problems with including demons with Dark attacks is that a lot of them might have a weakness to Light, which is something you do not want in this bout.
Three of the skills in Horus’ arsenal are Light-based and since a weakness opens up the possibility of an instakill, you want to avoid that. Of course, there’s a good number of demons level 46 and below that potentially learn Resist Light, allowing you to pass that on to someone else that can exploit the Dark weakness. Since you fight a boss weak to Dark just before opening up the area with Horus, you might already have a team built around that element. If you do not want to do the Dark-based skills, though, Horus being weak to Force also makes things a lot easier when building a team.
Kushinada-Hime is a great demon to include here, despite being a few levels higher than Horus, since she learns Mediarama for healing, and is also immune to Light; she will need Zanma to contribute any offense. Anubis also is immune to Light and has access to Mudoon, making him a great candidate to include, without having to do anything. The last choice is entirely up to you, although Black Frost can be a wonderful pick, despite needing Resist Light to cover his weakness. You also have the option to use Horus here, too, since it repels Light (it will damage the boss), although it will need access to Zanma.

Debuffs/Dekaja/Dekunda can be key here in this battle, especially Masukukaja/Sukunda on your end. Tarunda and Rakunda can also be great to have, but the Accuracy/Evasion is more important than anything. Tarunda can also help a lot in reducing the damage from Rampage and Megido, with the latter not being resistable, due to it being Almighty damage. Thankfully, though, Horus has a fairly low Vitality stat, so your attacks will be dealing some good damage against it.
