Fun with Fenrich: Mucking About in Disgaea 4
Since I’m enjoying Disgaea 4: A Promise Unforgotten, I thought it would be fun to share how I beat a couple of the extra unlockable characters in the post-game, as well as some general tips that worked pretty well for me. Yes there are SPOILERS in there, so if you are a Sensitive Sally then you shouldn’t read it.
Leharl is pretty easy to beat if you have the Dual Dojo Evil symbol. You can use either Valvatorez or some other damage dealer, or your favorite high level Skull, but the main goal is to kill off all the monsters around him that he’ll use to Magichange into a one-hit killer. He’s like the Dexter of the Netherworld with his minions’ help so the best thing you can do is have a couple of good guys that can toss at least 6 squares. Make a tower that will lift your Skull (who at this point should be dual-wielding two Magichanged monsters) and toss him into the far-left side of the map. Since you get two attacks, put them all on those vile demons surrounding Leharl and – if you can put some Terra level spells on him as well.
Once you take out his helpers, Leharl is an easy take-down. You can either use Leharl and a fusion-Magichanged Desco to take out the monster that are left or – if your Skull lived through round one – have your throwers send him back down the left side to help.
If you do everything right, Leharl will join your party.
How to beat 8-bit Asagi, the wanna-be main character that never gets any respect.. or to be the main character. You’ll need a few things to make this whole thing work, but the main tactic I used was dual wielding Magichanged monsters on my Skull. Dual wielding allows to use two attacks in one turn so it’s a great way to sock it to Asagi before she uses those giant Rifle Demons to transform herself into an unstoppable killing machine with well over one million hit points.
You’ll need a Skull higher than 1600, two monsters that Magichange into a staff, a Professor with the magic range spell and a heavy hitter such as Valvatorez and a giant Magichanged sword (combine Desco with someone else for best results. You’ll also need a couple of low-level chumps to toss you around.
First fuse your Giant Desco, pull Valvatorez up (but don’t walk him out of the base camp just yet) and then Magichange Desco on to him. Walk him up the stairs and kill the three Gunslingers. Bring someone out to go up, grab him and toss him back into the base camp.
Next pull out the two monsters you want to Magichange into weapons for your skull. Pull the skull up, Magichange them to him, and walk him up to the exact point where the Gunslingers were. Pull out a professor and cast Magic Range on the Skull. Now here’s where things get fun; if you did everything correctly you can now hit those giant Rifle Demons and Asagi. You have two attacks and you’ll want to use the most powerful spell you have – preferably in the Terra level.. I used the 6th tier in that group because it can hit more in a wider space. Put one attach on the Rifle Demons, then put the 5th Tier terror on Asagi. You may or may not hit her but you’ll kill of the rifle demons, which helps a lot. Get someone to toss the Skull back in the base camp. That leaves three units out on the field, but it will cause the remaining enemies on the board to group together in a close pattern. Focus all your energy on Asagi at the point – toss your mage up as far as you can and drop a couple of Terra’s on her. Chances are she’s dead and all you have left is leftover bad guys.
Once you mop up the rest of them you’ll get Asagi and access to a new evil symbol.
Some General Tips…
Once you beat the game, you’ll be able to unlock Mount Ordeal. There are four maps in there but the most important ones are 1 and 4. The first map is important because it’s a great place to farm Enforcers. Enforcers are great for gathering innocents into one item. Each Enforcer will let you move an innocent ten times. Sometimes in the map you’ll find one enforcer on an enemy or two, so that’s 20 times that you can move an item. One note in case you don’t know – you can’t combine enforcers, so don’t even bother unless you feel like wasting your efforts..
Here’s why you’ll want to mess around with moving innocents into one place. If you level an item up to level 96 (use a Legendary Item) and take all the Innocent Boost Routes, you can potentially triple how many you’ll get when you subdue them.
Once you have an item as I’ve described above, use those enforcers to gather them all together in it, and SAVE YOUR GAME, and then go into it. If the unsubdued Innocent doesn’t show up, quit, reload your save and try again. When he does show up kill him and Gency out.
If you haven’t hit the limit on that stack of Innocents, simply use an Enforcer to move unsubdued Innocents into the item and combine them to make them unsubdued again. Save your game and do what you did the first time.
It’s an easy way to get massive stacks of stat-boosting Innocents in a short amount of time, and is actually more effective than the old Puppy Paw Stick method from Disgaea 3.
The other level in Mount Order is great for power leveling. You’ll get the most out of it if you use your Training Ground symbol, Mana symbol, and a Professor or two with the Teaching License Evilities (gives 20 percent more experience if she is on the field.) I’ve also found that you can get all your monsters in on the action by Magichange them to your “characters in training.”
If you are not at Mount Ordeal yet, another great place to train is Level 9-4. If you adjust the difficulty by passing the appropriate Bill in the Senate, you’ll be able to use the old level 99 trick. You can find a ton of info about that elsewhere..
I’ll have more on my adventures in Disgaea 4 in the days ahead. If you haven’t picked it up yet and you enjoy strategy RPG’s there’s then you should. It’s probably the deepest experience you’ll find, save other games in the series.
