Hello! Ive been playing this game obsessively last few days. I can’t express how much I love it! However I’ve been pulled into this magic world once I’ve gotten the magician to join me after beating Lamia and there seems to be no way out of there other than beating the 4 magic orbs next to the statue. I cannot beat them and am therefore soft locked in this little area. Is there any advice as to what strategy to use to defeat them or is there a way out of the magic world that bypasses the fight? I die in a record time.
Sorry to hear you got stuck! I was very careful to make the encounter feel challenging without having a risk of players getting soft locked there. Guess I wasn't careful enough!
What level are your characters? If you're strong enough to beat the Lamia, those magic orbs should be beatable.
Earlier in the area, there's some water that fully restores HP, so make sure to heal up for free. In battle, you can use the Enemy Scan ability under Info to figure out the elemental weakness of the orbs, and use the magician to hit the weakness for extra damage.
Some good accessories for protecting against magic damage: Emerald Gem, Aquamarine Gem, Spirit Charm. Hopefully you've found some of them on your journey.
Let me know if you're able to beat the encounter. I may need to make that section of the game more forgiving.
They’re all level 15. And I have all the items you mentioned above but I still can barely kill one of the orbs. I didn’t expect to be pulled here so I wasn’t stacked up on healing items since beating Lamia ate them all. It’s really frustrating me. Is there another character I can recruit before the magician so I at least have an extra character in the battle?
Edit; I ended up going back to an earlier save before I fought Lamia and I proved my strength to Luciana and recruited a new character. So for now I’ll give up on the magician cause the orbs are impossible to beat.
Edit 2: I finally went back and beat Lamia again which was rather easy with the gunman thief. The way I beat the orbs was by stacking up on breads and antidotes and then using other 3 members not to attack but to keep the mage alive so that he can deal the damage. Got rid of the fire and water ones first cause they attack first and the rest was easy. But I couldn't have done it without 20+ breads and antidotes. :,)
Thank you for responses!!! I’m enjoying this game so much and ever since playing a game called Casia which was similar to this, I’ve been looking for the similar open world adventure. I even like this one better! The thing I appreciate is that there are no invisible enemies like in 99% of these RPG games. You know when you walk and randomly get pulled into a fight? Here I can just avoid the enemies if I don’t feel like fighting by stealthing around them and I can’t express how much I love this.
