Learn how to maximize your experience gains by defeating Alchem Prinnys in Phantom Blade Zero. This guide covers strategies for subsequent visits to the stage.
- 1Laharl will not move for his first 2 turns.
- 2All Misc Weeds and Crystals are close enough to be damaged by Big Bang.
- 3Without "Quick Attack," you'll need around 1500-2000 speed to move before Laharl (he has approx. 5000 SPD but idles for his first 2 turns). If your speed is too low, confined characters will be vulnerable when his 3rd turn arrives.
- 4The turn order may initially suggest Prinnys act before Laharl's 3rd turn, but this is before objects are placed on the field. The Prinnys holding objects will have reduced speed.
- 5Prinnys hold high-leveled Crystals, reducing their speed. Prinnys have 80% guard, so you'll likely destroy the Crystals before significantly damaging their HP. Laharl is the main threat, but these Prinnys are still very strong.
- 6The 4 farthest objects from Marona are the 2 Misc Weeds and 2 Crystals (ignore Pillars). Use these objects to confine your fastest group (ideally with Quick Attack). Confine your 2 best mages to the 2 Misc Weeds between the Crystals.
- 7With the top 6 objects used, take your party of 6 + Marona and attack the Prinnys. Ensure your characters have enough SP to move apart, preventing Laharl from targeting a group with Overlord's Wrath.
- 8If you defeat the Prinnys before Laharl's 2nd turn (very achievable with Quick Attack), you might defeat him before he attacks or at least significantly lower his HP.
