That being said, wearing three magical charms goes a long way towards making this battle seem less insurmountable and more simply challenging. The difficulty spikes up ridiculously at this point in the game against an enemy whose spammed attacks deal far more damage and have far more range than anything else encountered before. I admit, this battle is absolutely insane. Make sure you're at about 150 HP before the last Shadow Elise dies, since you won't have a chance to heal before the next battle. Rushing in and whacking at both of them is the easiest way to suddenly receive large amounts of damage when they spam their faster spells. Rinse and repeat, and don't be impatient when the second Elise shows up. Ideally, if you summon enough spirits, the water spirits should take care of healing for you, but if you ever fall down to around 100 health, I would recommend looking for three water gems to cast a quick heal with. The spirits will take care of targeting your enemy simply wait for Shadow Elise to get frozen or caught in a tornado before rushing in and attacking. The magic crystal item speeds up your spell casting rate enough so that you can easily call out multiple spirit summons at once as a result, when the battle gets more chaotic and gems begin to fly everywhere, look for sets of four and use them to cast as many spirits as you can. My approach for this battle is to wait until there are four gems of a single type on the field, and then scoop up all four and summon a spirit(ideally water or wind, since both can cast spells that restrict the opponent's movement, allowing you to wallop on your opponent with your blade). Three Magic Charms (In my case, Miracle Charm (from 5-1's treasure) and 2 Hallowed charms)Īs it's fairly easy to avoid Shadow Elise's physical attacks, even when there are two of them at once, I focused my equipment towards nullifying the magical damage I could sustain as much as possible. I assume we're in Story Mode, where you can change equipment mid-battle, but the equipment I list at the beginning of each form should work fine for dealing with the battle in Practice Mode. By the time I beat this boss battle, I had 230 health, but I think I could surive with 150. I've included Shadow Elise (not part of my original question) because it's technically part of the final battle. Okay, so here's the strategy I've devised for taking down all three forms of Chantelise's final boss.
