Auto Party

There are two possible strategies, either deal massive damage to kill Seth and Shiva T1, or send in tanky Demons, with good Brands, and a powerful healer to keep the fight going.

Suggestions for resistant Teams:

• Select the Dx2 Eileen to randomly get free Turns when passing.
• Careful when choosing Support Demons. Check if they are Evasive enough and don't have Phys or Force Weaknesses.
• P3 Erlkonig to passively heal all Party Members every turn. A second passive healer may help, like Maria.
• Evasive Demons, with Dodge Brands and Evade% Stats, to make Seth and Shiva miss and waste turns.
• Masakado A helps with his Kuyo Flash, as it increases EV of the whole Team and reduces AC of all enemies, increasing the chances of them missing. Also, Seth's Debilitate is replaced by Null Mortal, so he won't be able to debuff the Team.
• Check Battle Speed, the party should outspeed Shiva (BS 27,300 on Lv. 12) to debuff him before his Turn, otherwise it's a lot more difficult to evade his attacks.
• Avarice: Fire & Ice reduces all damage by 80%, except from Fire and Ice, so take Demons with Fire and Ice Skills into the battle.
  • Although Seth can be normally hit by Ice Skills, he is weak to Fire, which should be exploited. Transfer a Fire Skill (e.g., Fire Breath) to a Demon with an Ice Skill to have it deal with both Seth and Shiva and save one Demon slot.
  • Shiva has Ice Weakness, so hit it to get extra turns. Be aware that Shiva Drains Fire, so your Demons must have Fire Pierce, in case you decide to attack with Fire. Surviving his attacks is easier than Seth's, because he has only AoE Skills, meaning he's forced to attack all Demons at once, so he will usually miss some of them and lose Turns.
