Tiamat has 2,400 HP and is resistant to all elemental magic. The key to victory is mitigating her powerful elemental breath attacks and focusing on non-elemental damage.
Battle Strategy
Your White Wizard is the most valuable player in this fight. They must immediately cast NulAll or, failing that, cycle through NulBlaze, NulFrost, and NulShock to reduce Tiamat’s damage. Meanwhile, your Black Wizard should cast Haste on your physical fighters. Once buffed, your Knight and Master should attack relentlessly, while your Black Wizard uses Flare and your White Wizard uses Holy.
Maintain your elemental defenses at all times. Tiamat’s primary threat is her group magic. Keeping the Nul- spells active is paramount. Keep the party’s health above 200 at all times, as she can chain multiple breaths together. This is a battle of magical defense and physical/non-elemental offense.
After the Battle
With Tiamat’s defeat, the Wind Crystal is restored, and all four fiends have been vanquished. The path is now clear to return to the Chaos Shrine, travel 2,000 years into the past, and confront the root of all evil.
