Rance X: Boss Walkthrough

Basic knowledge and basic strategy

 * For all Darklords, you need Rance or Kentarou to break their invincibility field first.
 * Double Suppression means "To defeat 2 Darklords in 1 Turn".
 * Double Suppression is not recommend for your first playthrough (But you can challenge some...). If you think it is too difficult, just go with "Normal Clear" for each boss in your first playthrough.
 * If you have any problems with bosses' difficulty or their too high HP, just go with Basic Strategy. Work with every bosses except Galtia (Immune to Poison) and some bosses with high resistance. For Kayblis, he immune to sleep, but poison and curse still work. For Warg, you will be the one who sleep... zzz...
 * Basic Strategy = POISON + CURSE + SLEEP + [STOP and/or HEAL and/or DEFENSE]
 * POISON = Kouhime and then poison x2 with Papaya (Optional)
 * CURSE = Pastel Kalar, Vivid
 * SLEEP = Elenoa, Senhime, Warg (Sleep is optional but very helpful)
 * STOP = Shuriken by Kanami, Orime, Kiku. Magic barrier by Crook. Assassin double by Dark Heron.
 * HEAL = Temple knight, Kibako, Kimchi, and other healers.
 * DEFENSE = Physical attack defense by Cordoba, Patton. Magic defense by Rizna.
 * After bosses' HP reduced to appropriate amount, change members and take care of the rest. Poison will not kill the boss since it reduce HP by percentage.

Darklord Silky
* REMARK* You will get Silky after defeat her. (Both Normal and Double suppression)
 * 1) Normal Clear : Just beware her 6 combo attacks. Guard by using Cordoba, or have Sachiko in the party will help. Or just use guard before being attacked.
 * 2) Double Suppression :
 * 3) * 8 Rounds, HP=700, Not take damage less than 200k, Have armor -50% dmg.
 * 4) * Recommend to challenge in the mid-late game (T7~) and should well prepared.
 * 5) * There are 2 ways.-Rance 10- Silky 8R Cleared
 * 6) ** First method (Recommend) : Break armor first and keep attacking with 200k dmg or above. In order to break Silky armor, choose whether Kibako & Uspira or Poron & Kabachahn combo. And buff more damage by using Kenshin, Bezeleye and combo by using 0AP attackers. After armor break, using 2-times attackers such as Ghandi, Saias, Sill F-Laser can breakthrough. However, it will be very easy if you have Rei & Mary combo.Capture321654.JPG
 * 7) ** Second method : Match attack timing with weakness (Light or Fire), and climb up to 400k dmg or above attack without breaking the armor. Use Kentaro, Ghandi, Sill and use Nunuhara for weakness showing up.
 * 8) ** For both methods, you can use any characters who can call supporter for combo such as Keselring or Galtia. For AP buffs, Amades also help.

Darklord La Hawzel
* REMARK* You will get La Hawzel after defeat her. (Both normal and double suppression)
 * 1) Normal Clear : Hawzel will not start with "Flying" and also not use magic attack. Just defeat her normally.
 * 2) Double Suppression :
 * 3) * 8 Rounds, Start with "Flying", Heavy atk at round 3 and 6, Immune to fire.
 * 4) * Recommend to challenge in very early of the game (T2 / T3), or else her HP will go too high to take down.
 * 5) * First step : bring her down by 1.) Use LV45 Rance "Throwing Chaos" OR 2.) Use dispel without atk (Megawas or Sachiko will do) then follow by Rance
 * 6) * Combo damage matching with weakness (Dark or Ice), however you need to level-up them preparing for this.
 * 7) ** Dark = Bezeleye, Rolex, Aegis, Rizna
 * 8) ** Ice = Full, Io, Uspira, Arlcoate, Sill and other 0AP attackers.
 * 9) *** Depend on each round, if Hawzel fly or heal too much, just reload.

Darklord La Hawzel and La Saizel

 * Unlimited rounds, Start with Flying, Immune to fire and ice, heavy atk at round 3,6,9,12.
 * Easier than single La Hawzel since there is no limit turn.
 * Hold and defense until pass turn 12. You can use poison or curse during these 12 turns. Or the easiest way is use Elenoa sleep.
 * After turn 12, the attack will become softer which make you can do some damage along with healing.
 * Since there attacks are focus on fire and ice. Try to dispel "Burn" and "Freeze" status when you can. Or just use 0AP dispel of Ruberan, Calory or mob Kalar.
 * *REMARK* You will get both La Hawzel and La Saizel after defeat them.

Darklord Lexington

 * Lexington will come with two buffs (Apostle Juno and Atlanta) and will recast them time to time. These buffs will block melee and range attack. Use Crane, Sachiko, Megawas to remove.
 * Lexington attack pattern is normal, nothing to be worried. If you want to evade her big attack, just use Shuriken or Magic barrier.
 * *REMARK* You will get Lexington by Normal Clear (Leazas2) only. Double Suppression will result in her dead.

Darklord Babolat

 * 1) Normal Clear : Just not forget to dispel his "Acknowledge" status. You can use Magic 1AP atk for this.
 * 2) Double Suppression : Babolat's foot?-Rance 10- Babolat 5R
 * 3) * 5 Rounds, No attack. Weakness = Lighting and Light
 * 4) * Recommend to clear as earliest as possible. (T2)
 * 5) * It is difficult to find Lighting / Light damage dealer within T2, therefore use your best damage dealer Full Kalar combo with other ice members which you can get along the way. (Sill, Arlcoate, Io and as much as 0AP attackers as possible).
 * 6) * Damage buff also help, Arlcoate, Bezeleye.

Darklord Kesselring
* REMARK* You have to defeat him at night for Kesselring 8 maids flag (All maids survive). After that, all 8 maids will appear in treasure chest for you to collect. And when you collect all 8 maids, there will be an event to get Female Kesselring at Base phase. Moreover, after you unlock this flag, starting from next playthrough, if you choose "All cards available", 8 maids will appear in the chest since T1 with very high drop rate.
 * 1) Normal Clear (At noon) : Only beware of KO one male character attack. Apart from this, he is going to damage himself and doing nothing most of the time. Just defeat him as other normal battle.
 * 2) Double Suppression after Babolat OR fight him at night :
 * 3) * Kesselring at night will have 2 phases.
 * 4) ** Kesselring Dark.JPG phase : Can be recovered by dispel (But will make Kesselring change to Mist phase). Poison can be hit during this phase.
 * 5) ** Kesselring Mist.JPG phase : Resistance (Poison somehow cannot pierce through), Block big skill (Any skills that larger than 2-times), Resist to Magic atk 80%.
 * 6) * Weakness = Light
 * 7) * Round 1 - Round 3 : KO one male character. If you want Rance to be saved, prepare Shuriken and Magic barrier (Kanami, Crook) or Assassin's body double (Dark Heron). Or lay a bait (Rocky...)
 * 8) * End of round 3, Kesselring Invincibility Field will be recovered. (So, you need to have Rance survive until here at least)
 * 9) * This will be very long battle because it has to become defense game. During Dark phase, let start with poison and/or curse. During Mist phase, aim for defending and use 0AP attacker to do damage. Kesselring normally start his attack with 3-times skill, therefore you can block easily with Magic Barrier. Shuriken is also ok to stop his action. And sometimes he will use continuous Magic attack, Rizna can handle this pattern. Moreover, Kesselring often use healing, which you will want to stop by Shuriken (Depend on your luck). And you will need lot of healers in your roster for this kind of long battle. (Sill, Mi-Lordring, Kimchi)

Darklord Galtia

 * 1) Normal Clear :
 * 2) * Put Kouhime, and that's all. You can give him Dango and see his reaction also.
 * 3) Fair fight full spec :
 * 4) * Galtia will rapidly use "Eat-up" on player. Need 2-3 Ninja with Shuriken to stop his actions.
 * 5) * Or if you have lot of characters in your roster, just blunt through and keep attacking might work also.
 * 6) Eating Contest :
 * 7) * Should be cleared as earliest as possible(T2-T3). If you increase difficulties too much, even you have all Glutton characters, it will become impossible to clear.
 * 8) * 2 Duels, No attack. Just eat...
 * 9) * There are only 2 types of attack. Eat (食べる) and Glutton (大食い). Glutton will deal more damage than Eat.
 * 10) * Equip BP for +30% Physical Atk, never equip AP recover as you can only use no more than 6 AP in total 3 rounds.
 * 11) * Characters with Glutton skills are as follow :
 * 12) ** Terra, Kaloria, Patton, Destra, Kenshin, Kibako, Biscuitta, Cordoba, Orime

Darklord Medusa

 * 1) Normal Clear : Keep Sill in your parties. Alive until turn 11. And things will go fine. (Rance come back as supporter with high damage)
 * 2) Double Suppression after Galtia
 * 3) * Prepare for very long fight. Medusa come with Phisical Attack, F-Laser, set of debuffs (stun and fear), stone curse.
 * 4) * MUST prepare at least 2 members who has status recovery (For stun, fear, stone). Best are 0AP recovery by Calory, Ruberan, mob Kalar. Or one 0AP recover and one healer (Sill, Mi-Lordring) also OK.
 * 5) * What interesting is that, if you have no bad status, Medusa will always go with set of debuffs. Therefore if you keep recovery yourself, you will take less attack from her.
 * 6) * Also need to beware of her F-Laser, Rizna can take care of this.
 * 7) * You will need to heal time-to-time since it will become very long fight. Temple knight, Kibako or Kimchi can support in control your HP level.

 * 4) Normal Clear (One vs One)
 * 5) * (Recommend) Use the LV45 Rance and change BP bonuses accordingly.
 * 6) * (Not recommend) If you did not prepare LV45 Rance, there still a way. Use BP for Hanny Zippo, +AT30% and Boost. Then keep attacking and being countered until your HP is remaining around 20% or something. Keep guarding until Boost come and go Rance attack w/Boost. Doing the same after being revived by Zippo.
 * 7) * *REMARK* You will not get Lei by defeating him One vs One. But you will get collection instead. (レイタイマン)

 * 15) * Starts off with Invincibility Field, and Lei's Counterattack (Except Ranged) which cannot be removed.
