Dark Serge
HP: 3000
Element: Black
Spoils: Pendragon Sigil C (90%), Stamina Belt (10%)
Gold: 1234
Dark Serge is a very serious fight and if you don't come prepared with a serious stock of the right Elements your group may fall entirely or, in the least, fail to win completely intact. His initial volley will be a set of strong basic attacks focusing on a single character. Try to heal this character with a Nostrum as quickly as possible. Once he has charged up, he will then cast Feral Cats which will pound your entire party. At this point, one more Black Element will create a pure Black field. Since Dark Serge is not an advanced Black innate, use this field to summon Mother Ship immediately. Once you've summoned Mother Ship he will rush you again with basic attacks, attempting to stock up more Elements. Typically he will cast Volcano next. Use a Heal All after getting blasted by Feral Cats and then use a Recover All once you've been hit with Volcano. After Volcano, he won't cast again right away, so use this opportunity to turn the field White and summon Unicorn! Unicorn is essential in your hopes to survive his next waves. After his next assault he will use Forever Zero which is easily his ultimate attack. After Forever Zero, he will rush again, charging his Elements. His next assault will be a random, high level Element. Since the assault isn't predictable, trapping can be a waste of a turn, however this could be a good opportunity to Trap Black Hole. Once you've used Unicorn, this fight should be fairly simple. Rush him with basic attacks while keeping your entire parties' HP as high as possible. Make sure to keep a steady stream of high level White Elements out there (like your recently trapped Ultra Nova) and this fight should be over soon.
