Learn the best strategies for defeating Nimclops, Psaroid, and Mortamammoth in Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age — Definitive Edition's Hall of Remembrance Level 2.
Walkthrough:
- The battle involves three bosses: Nimclops, Psaroid, and Mortamammoth, all with approximately 6,000 HP. They each have two actions per turn, so consistent healing with Omniheal is crucial.
- Target Priority:
- Mortamammoth: Eliminate this boss first. It can use Magic Burst, which deals significant damage to your entire party. While it consumes all of Mortamammoth's MP, it will likely restore them on the next turn with a dark prayer.
- Psaroid: Defeat Psaroid second. It has access to Thwack, an instant-death spell against which Catholicon Rings offer no protection. It can also use Kazam on a single target, ice breath attacks on the party, and a sweet breath to inflict sleep.
- Nimclops: This is the final target. Its moveset is more straightforward, including a strong normal attack and Crackerwhack for party-wide damage. It can also use Kasap to lower your defenses, which should be countered with Kabuff.
- Enemy Abilities:
- Mortamammoth: Magic Burst (high party damage, consumes MP), dark prayer (restores MP), spiky shoulder charge, wild weapon swing, boomerang-like attack (damage degrades), Meditation (heals HP). Catholicon Rings +3 can negate its war cry (lose a turn) and gleam (sleep) moves.
- Psaroid: Thwack (instant death), Kazam (single target), ice breath (party), sweet breath (sleep), desperate attack, iron balls barrage (random hits).
- Nimclops: Normal attack, Crackerwhack (party damage), Kasap (lowers defense), Kafrizzle (single target).
- Buffs: None of the enemies can dispel buffs with disruptive wave, so maintain your party's buffs throughout the fight.
- Offensive Strategy:
- Erik: Use Divide and Double Down, with Oomphle cast on him by another party member.
- Veronica: Use Channel Anger on her first turn, then Magic Burst on subsequent turns. Remember to have Elfin Elixirs ready to replenish her MP.
- Serena: Focus on healing and buffing.
- Hero: Use Sword Dance for damage if not needed for healing.
- Upon defeating all three bosses, you will receive a War Drum, an item that allows casting a party-wide Oomph. This is highly beneficial for buffing your entire party.
- You will also obtain the password for Level 3 of the Hall of Remembrance.
- Keep a close eye on your HP and don't hesitate to use Omniheal.
- The War Drum is a valuable item for quickly buffing your entire party. Assign it to a character who is not constantly occupied with other actions, such as the Hero or Serena.
- Maintain buffs like Kabuff to counter Nimclops' Kasap.
