Tips and Tricks
- You’re stuck with Ramuh’s
Blind Justice for this fight, which can be a bit of a pain. Make sure you know how the ability works and consider practicing for a bit in the “Hall of Virtue.” In short, the idea is to aim Ramuh’s staff at all of the enemies until you lock on to as many of them as you can, press
again to launch lightning orbs in their direction, and then press
one last time to trigger the orbs to explode.
- For mini bosses and bosses, don’t forget that you can target the same enemy multiple times with
Blind Justice to have multiple lightning orbs hit the same target.
- Equipping the
Reflection of Lightning (Blind Justice) accessory can make the process of using Ramuh’s Eikonic Feat a bit easier.
- The game gives you extra points for “luring an enemy to strike
Lightning Rod,” but this is pretty difficult to do. Technically, it can be done by using
Taunt, but alternatively, just set up the rod around as many enemies as you can, and they should just randomly hit it from time to time.
- While it’s tempting to save up
Judgment Bolt for use against powerful single targets and bosses, it’s worth noting that you can get extra time bonuses for having it hit more than one target. Just remember that the two targets must be close to one another for the second enemy to be hit by the collateral damage.
