Metaphor: ReFantazio - Final Boss Phase 2 Full Power - Regicide Difficulty

To access this version of the boss you simply do not destroy any of the melancholia crystals when exploring the Tyrant Star. Lost footage for phase 1 but only the second phase is different. Having + crit rate abilities on my 2 gold rush users was necessary alongside the accessory that doubles crit damage on both of them. Crit damage is much stronger on regicide due to higher multipliers for weakness and crits which makes the merchant line extremely useful for ng+ regicide runs. Also basilio had the triple cost merchant weapon which you can farm from the final dungeon which boosts the damage tremendously. Reverent crown armour on the protagonist helps with maintaining momentum when anyone gets knocked out. Aside from that Junah just had the soul hacker mask and some debuff spells and Heismay was kitted out for spamming evade. The 3 stage evade buff inherited from the swordmaster + serene headband meant that heismay could evade most things as long as he had a single evasion buff. Awesome game, really fun to figure out bosses and finding ways to kill them damageless for the extra bonuses.
