Guide yourself through Final Fantasy XIII's Mission 43, 'The Hero Never Dies,' in the Faultwarrens. Learn the Borgbear Hero's location, strategy, and rewards.

Alright, so you've made it to Mission 43, 'The Hero Never Dies,' which is also known as Titan Quest D-3. This one's a bit of a throwback, as you'll be facing a Borgbear Hero again, but this time it's brought some friends. Don't worry, we've handled these guys before!

Stats / Weaknesses:

  • Mark: Borgbear Hero
  • Stone Location: Faultwarrens - Via Stellarum/Via Solis
  • Mark Location: Faultwarrens - Sylphid Path
  • Class: B
  • Additional Foes: Borgbear, Goblin, Goblin Chieftain, Munchkin, Munchkin Maestro
  • Prerequisite: Mission 39 or 40
Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, you'll need to make your way to the Faultwarrens. The specific area for this mark is called the Sylphid Path.
  2. 2
    As you navigate through the first main branch of this area, keep an eye out for a Treasure Sphere. Inside, you'll find a valuable item called a Starblossom Seed. Make sure to grab it!
  3. 3
    Continue on from the treasure, and you'll soon find the mark for this mission: the Borgbear Hero.

Strategy:

  • This fight is a bit of a reunion, as you'll face the Borgbear Hero along with its usual crew, but this time they've brought the entire Goblin family reunion with them! That means you'll be up against three Goblin Chiefs of Staff and a bunch of their Goblin underlings.
  • Your experience fighting Goblins and Borgbears should serve you well here. The key is to keep your party's health up while you systematically take down the enemies. Focus on the smaller Goblins first to thin out their numbers, then deal with the Chiefs and the Borgbear Hero.
  • Make sure your Paradigm system is set up to handle both groups of enemies effectively. Having a balanced party with roles like Ravager and Medic ready to go will make this much smoother.
  • Initial Reward: Speed Sash
  • Repeat Reward: Bomb Core x7
