Obelisk: Devilkiller

Actually, I was refighting Czarina to try a different approach (you need to beat Czarina to get Apnis anyway). Illinois Freezes her with Tundra (FTorment isn't worth the cost since she's resistant to Freeze and might need multiple applications) so that Bardoc can get some solid hits in.

Also, she's not a Lunatic! She's an Arcanist and has both elements like Kyberos (the Lunar attack is timed as a follow-up to Oblivion Fist every three turns, though, so it's easy to tank/protect allies against it). Princess is okay, but needs Titania and Kristoph's help if she's going to survive and deal enough damage to make the 16B worth it.

(alsoalso random aside to NB, I managed to get 46BP built by Bardoc in a single turn against 5 Sahagin in Kyberos' cavern loooooool)

oh yeah hearth, glad you use it

...i have never used it . (BAD CRAZE)

EDIT: I've edited it a bit for the release of the game, and now I use it fairly often. =3

I like to get Burn/Poison on bosses ASAP, and if you can consistently Carmilla her then the degens will deal even more damage (since they're elemental). So, Princess is good the first turn since you can easily build 16 BP for her.

Afterward though, yeah. Learn Czarina's pattern and shift your Vanguard appropriately. Princess isn't useless in the fight (she's actually pretty decent if you purposefully don't Provoke Czarina), but she's tempting fate if you don't pay attention!
