Key Information¶

Head to the Keep¶

Once you’ve regained control of Rean, head into the Male Bathroom to view an event with Musse, after your little chat has come to a close your Bond with her will increase. Next up you’ll want to spend those three Bonding Points, use the first one on Millium through the Arcus II as she is missable, after the scene has ended you’ll gain her Character Note.

Choose Laura (via the Arcus II again) for your second point, this will lead you to Einhel LV1 - Sub. This is just a short couple of rooms so there’s no need for a map here, especially due to there being no Chests. Likewise, there are two enemies (Attack Dog and Agilatran) to scan here for your Battle Book but they don’t count towards the Trophy and you’ll find the information in the Extra section of the book. It goes without saying but you’ve fought the enemies here before albeit these have slightly higher stats. Laura’s Bond will increase following this short Bond Event and then feel free to spend the final point on anyone else available.

Einhel Keep LV2¶

Head to the Keep and speak with the Professor to begin this trial and then take the lift up to LV2. Here you’ll be given two new Brave Orders, Sledgehammer and Wind Break. Sledgehammer gives you 300% Break Damage for 4 turns when active and Wind Break offers 70% Delay. Continue to follow the path around and pass the first intersection to find the first Chest, inside will contain a Holy Breath, this will allow you to perform a Medium Heal at a large range. Go back the other way and go right, crawl through another vent to find a computer, interact with it and then use the bridge to get across.

Take the left path first to find the second Chest which contains U-Material x3 and then follow it around to the right, head into the small room and you’ll find another Chest that contains All Sepith x50. Enter the third and final vent and take the left path to find the last Chest that contains Mute III, this will give +25 STR and a 25% chance to Mute an enemy. Once you’ve made it out of the other side of the vent, take two right turns and you’ll see a computer, interact with it and you’ll be able to cross the bridge to reach Einhel Keep LV2 - Depths. Use the Orbment Charging Station++ to restore your HP/EP before facing the boss, Stratos Diver.

Boss: Stratos Diver¶

Begin the battle by scanning the Stratos Diver and then use Juna’s Brave Order Sledgehammer to increase your break damage to +300%, use an S-Craft to quickly take out the two Diver Bit’s. Continue useing the Sledgehammer Brave Order until the Stratos Diver is in the Break Status and then use Kurt’s Brave Order to put a -70% Delay on him. Here you’ll want to use any available S-Crafts and powerful attacks. If the Stratos Diver activates Twin Blade Cannon you’ll want to quickly use an attack to Impede it or make sure the party is fully healed if that isn’t possible.

• Nightmare Strategy

Stratos Diver hits harder than anything you’ve fought so far but the two new Brave Orders you received earlier are set to be a mainstay for the majority of the game. Juna’s Sledgehammer boosts Break Damage by a massive 300% and will allow you to Break the enemy a lot easier than before while Kurt’s Wind Blade will delay the enemy once it’s been broken. As such, begin the battle with Sledgehammer activated and then use an S-Craft or two to take out the Diver Bits leaving you with just Stratos Diver. Make use of Juna’s Gemini Blast to lower it’s Defense and then get to work on breaking it. Once you do, quickly switch over to Wind Blade and make use of your S-Crafts. As for Stratos Diver itself, Hyperactive Discharge is a deadly attack that will hit all allies and inflict Mute, revive any victims and remove Mute instantly. It’s other main attack, Tetra-Luminous Divider hits an arc in front of it so be sure to reposition your characters to avoid everyone getting hit by it.

After the battle has been cleared you’ll receive a Heat Up SR (Restores CP and offers EP+45/STR+12) from the enemy and given a Moon Lens, this will allow you to see data on enemies that haven’t been scanned as well as being able to see Chests/Enemy Locations. Exit the Keep to view a couple of scenes and then you’ll be ready to tackle the evening.

Branch Campus Quest: Revenge of the Swimming Lesson¶

In order to complete this quest you’ll need to help Wayne beat Rean in a race, so you’ll need to wait until the circles overlap and then press either the [Triangle or Circle] Button to go faster. Upon completing the quest you’ll gain a Character Note and 3000 Mira.

Make your way to the entrance of Barney’s Tavern & Inn to speak with Munk and challenge him to a game of Vantage Masters, upon winning you’ll gain Uptide x3.

Day 5/15 - Panzer Soldat Training¶

Divine Knight Battle: Spiegel S x3 (Cedric, Ada, Fritz)¶

In this training exercise you’ll face three opponents, Spiegel S - Cedric, Ada, and Fritz. You’ll be able to cycle through them with the [L1/R1] buttons. When Cedric is in his Default Stance you’ll want to aim for the head and then when he goes into his Charged Stance you’ll want to aim for the body.

For Fritz you’ll want to focus on his Arms when he is in the Default Stance and Charged Stance. Finally, you’ll want to hit Ada’s Head when she is in the Default Stance and Body for her Charged Stance. Make sure to use Crafts with Impede when they’re charging up an attack and use any Repaire Stones to heal up if need be. You’ll want to focus your attention on Ada first and leave Cedric for last due to the differing amounts of HP the three Panzers have. Focus on building up your BP and unleashing Unite Attacks to deal more daamge at once, this is more effective than using Finishers. After the battle has been won you’ll receive you’re Quest Report, along with a Dragon Vison and a Silver Star Lionheart Medal.
