Hell Biker Strategies
Here is a breakdown of the battle strategies against the boss:
Equip Kamudo Magatama
Before the battle, make sure the Protagonist or Demi-fiend is wearing a Kamudo Magatama. This Magatama resists Physical attacks. Also, it is not advisable to use Hifumi and Shiranui Magatama.
Be familiar with boss attacks and skills
Make it a point to get familiar with the attacks and skills of the boss. Adjust your strategy when the boss uses skills like Hell Burner and Hell Exhaust. We suggest having one party member that can nullify Fire attacks. This would punish the boss for not hitting attacks by consuming one regular turn from its side.
Similarly, have another ally demon being able to nullify wind attacks.
Land Debuffs
Land debuffs on the boss while leaving some MP for healing. Debuffs can be in the form of attack power decrease (Tarunda/War Cry), defense power decrease (Rakunda), and hit/evasion power decrease (Sukunda/Fog Breath). These debuffs can be accessed by demons in your party.
Prioritize on landing Sukunda/Fog Breath first. Followed by Rakunda and Tarunda/War Cry.
Cast Buffs
Cast buffs on your party members as well. Buffs can be in the form of attack power increase (Tarukaja), magic power increase (Makakaja), defense power increase (Rakukaja), and hit/evasion power increase (Sukukaja). These buffs can be accessed by demons in your party.
Prioritize on landing Sukukaja first. Followed by Tarukaja/Makakaja, and Rakukaja.
Boost Attacks
In addition to buffs, you can also use attacks further by using Focus (next Physical and Almighty deals x2.5 damage). This damage buff can be accessed by demons in your party.
Use Phys attacks and skills
Hell Biker does not have resistance to physical attacks so you can damage it with Physical skills. If you don’t have them, just rely on your high-level demons and deal normal attacks instead.
Use Magic skills except Fire and Force
Hell Biker does not have resistances against Magic attacks except Fire and Force so make sure you and your other ally demons have access to Ice and Electricity skills.
Heal Allies
Keep the party’s HP sustained by using healing skills. Especially when other party members are using HP-consuming Physical skills.
