The Best Strategy for Defeating the Assassin Girl
Assassin Girl is agile, but she is weak to water. To beat her,break her AGI and finish her with Water-Type attacks. Since she has Instant-Kill abilities, delay her attacks with the Double Steps skill. And buff everyone’s physical with Lenne’s Water Coat.
Here’s a step-by-step guide.
1. Start with Turn-Extension.
With her physical attack, Assassin Girl incapacitates at least two squad members. To counter,begin the battle with Double Steps and Quicksteps, which extend agility and delay the enemy’s turn.
2. Debuff the Assassin Girl.
Weaken the Assassin Girl with Robb’s Leg Shot combined with Glenn’s All Break. This is a crucial early-battle move, as her attacks have high-DPS, insta-kill effect.
Perform Strength Dance followed by Drunken Masterto boost the squad’s Offense and Agility. The goal is to create a fast Formation with high DPS. So, any buffs that increase AGI and ATK would work.
4. Finish Her with High-DPS Combos.
For the last phase,exploit Robb’s Soul Parasite and Lenne’s Water Coat. The former weakens the Assassin Girl against all elements, and the latter boosts normal attacks’ Water damage. It’s the perfect combo to take her out.
