War Machines Gone Wild

Talk to Ivar in Marksburg to begin the Bonus Chapter. Rowen receives a call about menacing golems heading towards Sharilton. The group splits up with your team’s task being to go to Sharilton to warn Driselle.

Use the World Map to warp to Sharilton and go south to Lord’s Manor to speak to Driselle. Rowen, the perpetual tactician, comes up with a plan to defeat the golems, and it’s time to prepare for battle.

Leave the Lord’s Manor and Ivar will call Jude to mention something interesting he found in Nia Khera Hallowmont. Make your way to the exit towards Talys Highroad.

Note

Before you tackle the golems, make sure to upgrade your gear and buy healing items.

Go to the Talys Highroad West Region to confront the machines.

You Must Use the Artes Jude and Milla Learn

The first battle is against the Elemental Golem at point 5. It will change its weaknesses and resistance from among Fire, Water, Wind, and Earth. Rowen and Milla can use elemental artes from a safe distance to attack, while Ludger and Jude tie up the foe in close combat.

When you reduce the foe to half its HP, an event occurs in which one more golem appears. After this, the golems become resistant to all elements, and the only way to do damage is to hit them with an simultaneous attack of four elemental types: Fire, Water, Earth, and Wind.

Using a Great Spirit fossil, Jude can now use a new arte called Maxwell, and Milla can use Elemental Shot. These special attacks use all four elements and are the only way to attack the golems when they are resistant to all types (indicated by the rainbow-colored stripes). Make sure to equip this arte and manually control either teammate to deliver the attack personally. When the attack connects, the golems will temporarily acquire weaknesses to all elements! By using these two artes, first finish off the half-dead golem from the first fight, then turn your attention to the new arrival. Remember to refill the TP for Jude or Milla so they can deliver their special four elemental artes.

Note

You won’t be able to deal any damage while the boss is resistant to all damage types.

Attacks to Watch Out For

Spin Attack: The golem spreads out both arms and spins in place. This attack has a high chance of inflicting stuns, so evade it with an immediate quick-step.

Rock Punch: The boss punches both hands into the ground and fires a rock punch made of stone. The range is long, so guard against it.

Leave Talys Highroad and head back to Sharilton Lord’s Manor. Driselle is overjoyed that everyone made it back safely and Jude has made a critical breakthrough in his research.
