Norende Ravine

Navigate Norende Ravine in Bravely Second, find treasure, and prepare for the challenging boss fight against Anne Ultimate. Learn her weaknesses and strategies.

Boss: Anne Ultimate

• Level: 67
• HP: 150,000
• Weakness: Fire, Bug

Anne Ultimate's Abilities:

• Fragmentation: Physical damage to one target.
• Dark Flare: Dark magic damage to the party.
• Fairy’s Flight: Prepares Vortex for the next turn.
• Vortex: Random wind damage to the party.
• Undermine: Reduces a character's maximum HP to 1. Can be countered with Exorcist's Undo HP, ideally on a fast character like a Ninja.
• Acedia: Dispels party buffs and makes them weak to all elements.

Strategy:

• Anne has lower physical defense than magical defense; prioritize physical attacks.
• Target her weaknesses: Fire and Bug. Humanoid is also a weakness if using specific weapons like Doujiri-Yasutsuna or Ripper.
• Consider using Astrologian's Limit Break with Fencer's Bloody Wolf and fire-based attacks for high damage.
• To counter Acedia and prepare for Vortex/Dark Flare, cast Elemental Barrier Blast or Mist early on.
• If Anne uses Undermine, use Undo HP to restore maximum HP. A speedy character like a Ninja is best for this.
• When Anne drops below half HP, she will Default and then use Acedia followed by Dark Flare. High magical defense and elemental immunity are crucial here. A Dark Shield for the healer can negate dark damage.
• Store up BP when she drops below half HP and unleash powerful physical attacks to finish her off quickly.
