       Chapter 8 Elite Boss
       By: TTH Date: May 20, 2012, 3:49 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Hi,
       I am currently playing chapter 8 and have difficulties with the
       Elite Boss : "The Healer".
       As far as I understood the Boss, the fight is divided. At first
       you are fighting him in his Tree-Form
       and this is OK. Not very hard, and easily done.
       But afterwards he turns into an infernal and there my trouble
       starts.
       How can you defete him in this form. I used -give up once from
       chapter 7, so I got enough gold and built myself pretty good
       synthesis items. But still I cannot do anything against this
       nasty pile of stones.
       There is so much to do (Avoid mini-infernals impact, kill
       mini-infernals, take care of this life-leech attack) that I
       never have time to really deal damage. And then time passes by,
       and eventually I make a mistake and die. But even if I fight
       long, I just fail to inflict real damage on the boss.
       So my question is:Am I just too stupid, or is this healer really
       a little hard ?
       And if I am too stupid, I would be glad if someone, who was more
       successful l than I was, explains me, how he managed to beat
       that infernal.
       thanks in advance
       TTH

       No, I want this to be an own topic. I actually requested this to
       see what others think.
       It is best to keep this own thread so no other things can mess
       the discussion.
       Topic reopened.

       Hello,
       In the beginning I had problems with this boss also. You really
       must have the right gear in order to defeat him. The problem
       according to my opinion is that he summons to many infernals
       which all cast this green nova upon dying which inflicts a lot
       of damage. Maybe it would be helpful if he would not cast the
       infernals that often, so that you actually had some time to deal
       with the real boss in the meantime.

       There are three ways to reduce:
       1) Infernals drops less
       2) The event creates less infernals
       3) Event happens less
       Which one is it?

       Hi, in the meantime I also managed to defeat this Boss.
       My solution was pretty simple: As manstein already stated, the
       exploding Infernals are the greatest problem, so I decided to
       not care about them and  just focused all damage on the Boss.
       Worked really fine for me, because Fradz healed the damage from
       the infernals with Life-Stealer, Phodom
       just survived with ShieldOfFire and Maximilian and Galeoth was
       running around all the time in order to avoid dying.
       So my realisation was that the Infernals are impossible to
       control,
       they are more like an unexplicit time limit.
       Your only option is to kill the Boss, before too many infernals
       came down.
       (If anyone managed to defeat the infernals faster than they
       came, please tell me how)
       So, I would suggest you let the Event, which summons an
       infernal, happen less often, so you have a chance of handling
       the infernals, instead of having to ignore them.

       PS: Of course it would also help, if CombatKings and Espers were
       working in Chapter 8.

       Hello,
       I would opt for that the event when he summons four infernals
       would happen less often. The casting from the sky can be easily
       avoided and one to two lnernals regularly can be handled. Make
       it like the cast of the four Infernals is really a special move,
       which happens not that often.

       Hmm.
       Actually I don't want to make less events.
       I could make few other things:
       - No Infernals from the sky will come if there are more than 3
       Infernals.
       - No Infernals from the sky will come if EVENT is on(infernal
       event that is 30 seconds long and after that the boss starts to
       fight normally)
       - Also I could create third and fourth event so that the chance
       of infernal event drops. Any ideas?

       Hello,
       if you do not want to reduce the number of events, I would opt
       for your second option that during a summoning event no
       infernals would come from the sky.
       Also you might want to consider lowering the damage one single
       dying infernal causes just a small bit as I think the damage is
       quite considerable.

       I was actually thinking to do all three options.
       I could also reduce the damage, it is now 4500/6000/7500/9000
       damage within 500 range.
       But I need ideas for new events.
