Explanation

The party goes like this:

Speedster + Debuffer DPS Phys Null/Repel/Drain or High Phys Evasion Healer
Any Demon Any Demon Any Demon Any Demon

or

DPS DPS DPS Healer
Any Demon Any Demon Any Demon Any Demon
  • Speedster + Debuffer: Must have Speedster, Makarakarn, and Tarunda. Makarakarn is required to prevent Titania from wiping your party with magic, and helps reduce the number of turns Metatron gets by repelling Purgatory/Holy Wrath.
  • DPS: Must have an AoE, preferably Physical or Dark. Dark magic as Metatron is resistant to everything but Dark, and the Horus in the first two waves is weak to Dark. Physical DPS will get extra turns for the party whenever it crits, which is why AoE w/ acc is recommended to raise the chances of getting a single crit.
  • Phys Null/Evasion: Treat as a DPS. If Phys Null/Repel/Drain, it will stop the Hanuman/Orochi from using their AoE phys which hurts. If Phys Evasion, it'll lose them turns.
  • Healer: Must have Mediarama, other slot is for Diarama + Resists. Diarama is used as if you run any Phys Null/Repel/Drain, the enemies will regular attack a target, and the auto AI will heal that targeted ally up.

As for brands:

  • Speedster - Divine + Ward/Speed (Speed, HP, Phys Evasion)
  • Magic DPS - Divine + Ward (MATK, HP, Speed, Phys Evasion)
  • Phys DPS - War + Ward (PATK, ACC)
  • Healer - Divine + Ward (Recovery, HP, MATK, Speed, Phys Evasion)

Demons:

  • Fenrir: Speedster for getting your party's battle speed up to the required amount. Makarakarn is required to prevent Titania from wiping your party with magic, and helps reduce the number of turns Metatron gets by repelling Purgatory/Holy Wrath.
  • Pazuzu: Nulls Force/Dark/Light and heals. The force null loses turns for Hanuman when it uses Mazanma, and Light/Dark Null works wonders against Metatron after it blasts through the first Makarakarn.
  • Feng Huang: A speedier option than Pazuzu as a healer without any relevant Nulls and low HP. However, it can have way higher evasion + crit resistance which helps if you have trouble with the first two waves.
  • Pallas Athena: A good Physical DPS that comes with Mana Aid. Basically, a "budget" Yoshitsune.
  • Ose: Phys Null and Hades Blast.
  • Rangda: Phys Repel and Mudodyne

Makarakarn Hades Blast Resist Elec Resist Ice
Tarunda Phys Boost Mudo Diarama


  • Battle Speed needs to be 18,700+. If you cannot hit the battle speed, use a Purple Beelzebub for initial Makara Shift. Transfer Diarama for Beelzebub, and Mamudo + Diarama for Prometheus.
  • Templar Dragon helps a lot until you can get to a stable point with farming.
  • If you have excess skill points and free slots, transfer Samrecarm.

Strategy (Manual Play)

  • 1st wave - Kill order is Hanuman > Orochi > Horus. Hanuman will start off the fight always with Vorpal Blade (unless you have two nulls/repels/drains), and will start using it if the only one alive. Horus will just spam Diarama for 450, it's not a lot.
  • 2nd wave - If you have Makarakarn or an Elec Null/Drain/Repel, Titania will use Makajamaon. You can exploit that if playing manual - kill order should be Titania > Orochi > Horus.
  • 3rd wave - Metatron is really easy compared to the waves before, just outlast it.

Metatron (Stage 11)

Auto Party

Example Party

Horse
Buff/Debuff Tanking/Damage Damage Damage
Kartikeya.jpg Kartikeya ArchPurple.png Asura.jpg Asura ArchPurple.png Yoshitsune.jpg Yoshitsune ArchRed.png Siegfried.jpg Siegfried
Offensive Cry Phys Amp Savage Glee Great Aim
Mana Aid Phys Boost Epitome of Carnage
  • Kartikeya casts Offensive Cry each wave. Skanda provides critical %, and is a suitable replacement for Hell Biker's Red Zone if your demons have enough critical % of their own.
  • Asura War/Shield Brands, 1.6k Phys ATK, 1378 HP.
  • Yoshitsune War Brands, 1.6k Phys ATK. Panels 1 and 2 completed, giving him 15 max MP to cast Hassou Tobi up to 3x if necessary.
  • Siegfried War/Aim Brands, 1.8k Phys ATK. Panels 1, 2, and 3 completed, giving him Phys Pierce and 5MP Titanomachia.

It's likely that Metatron will be killed T1 if crits land consistently. If he's not killed T1, Asura can tank 2-3 casts of Fire of Sinai before dying, at which point a single Hassou Tobi! from Yoshitsune should be more than enough to finish him off.

Use Eileen for 1 extra attack from Hassou Tobi! and Ashura, or Kangaroo Boxer for his cumulative damage buff.

Clear time ranges from 45-60 seconds.
