In this episode, we return to the Scarlet Devil Mansion, where foulness is afoot and Flandre is in danger! Also, cameo boss fights!


Enemies:

Elite Maid: The highest level of Fairy Maids, and extremely dangerous enemies as they have access to the -aga level spells, including: Firaga, Blizzaga, Thundaga, Aeroga, Waterga, Breakga, and Curaga, and Quakera for good measures. They generally come with either other enemies or in groups of 3, so they're extremely dangerous and should be disposed of first!

Vampire Bat: Not exactly a super dangerous enemy, as all it'll do is either attack, use Drain or Drainra.

Patchbot V2: Much like the Patchbot, there is a chance that this enemy will do nothing, but when it does, it hurts a lot. It uses level 4 Patchouli skills, meaning you'll be seeing abilities that Patchouli herself can't even use yet.

Tsurube-Otoshi: A lesser version of Kisume pretty much, as it uses the exact same moveset as Kisume but isn't weak to Earth and instead weak to Holy.

Patchmobile: The Notorious Enemy of the area. It uses high-level Patchouli skills (level 8 skills) so it can dish out a lot of damage and is highly resistant to everything. Defeating it can yield a skill scroll for Keine for those patient enough to get it, as it's a 3% drop rate, and it does have a skill scroll for Patchouli that is a 3% steal rate as well, but both are well worth getting.



Bosses:

Culex: The cameo boss that really has nothing to do with the area and is just there to be there. He will automatically start the battle by inflicting Poison/Blind/Silence on your party regardless of your resistances, as well as give himself Blink/Protect/Haste I believe. His skillset consists of skills from his source game mostly, and while they can do pretty good damage, his measly 4096 HP won't last long against a well-prepared party. However, the main difficulty in this fight comes not from surviving this fight, but to do so while stealing his one-of-a-kind Quartz Charm accessory. Get it while you can!

Flandre Scarlet: Flandre hits really REALLY hard, and you've no choice but to use Remilia and Patchouli in your party here. However, much like in every other game Flandre's in, she's a glass cannon, and her measly 8000 HP will go down extremely quickly, especially if the party bothered to upgrade Patchouli's Royal Flare and get Remilia two Griffin Claws.

Hades: The true boss of this dungeon. Hades is amongst one of the most difficult bosses in the game, as he has the most HP out of any normal story boss (55,535 HP) and hits extremely hard with his skills, the most dangerous being Cleave and Curse, with Cleave doing massive physical damage to the entire party and Curse inflicting multiple statuses to the party. Hades is also capable of using Ragnarok like every other guardian, but can also use abilities such as Mustard Bomb, Maelstrom, Freeze, and Doomsday. He does have an extremely powerful and rare accessory, the Hermes Sandals, but it has a mere 2% chance of being stolen and would be extremely hard to steal in this fight.
