This is a set of 5 areas that repeat in an infinite loop, also with an increasing difficulty with each area finished. You cannot return to previous areas once they've been beaten.Īfter completing the Ragnarok area, you enter the "Phantasmic Coil" areas. The region has one path with a staircase up, leading up to the top at the 10th level. Will they stand strong, or will her nefarious schemes come to fruition? Even as the sorceress attempts to compress all pasts, presents, and futures into one singular moment, heroes rise to prevent her from obliterating all existence. Some pasts are behind us, while others are yet to come.
In the Phantasmic Coil, she summons two Guardians to her side. The third is always Ultimecia, with a varying elemental affinity.

If you handle mob control well, this can be used to get insanely high level scores! It start out alone, but will use a new ability "Enemies come from beyond time and space!" to summon extra fiend fodder. Iron Giant, for example, comes with the Immune to Draw boon, which keeps you from Drawing spells until you Break it.These extras can have some sweet Draw potentials, but can also overwhelm you if you let them pile up. The second has a higher-difficulty Boss, which usually summons lesser fiend fodder to it.Nothing special here, but it's a good opportunity to Draw some spells. You are HIGHLY encouraged to go finish off as much of that storyline as possible, or you will not get far in this run. Foes have been balanced to expect this, so difficulty will ramp up VERY QUICKLY. This event includes the use of the Draw System introduced in The Sleeping Lion. As you work your way up the tower, the battles at each level will get progressively harder. Play in this area works up a single chain of levels, from the beginning Primordia level up to the top Ragnarok level. To that end, she will push to be feared in her own right, knowing that the Hero will eventually take her down. In the same way, she knows she is just a shadow of the real Sorceress, but will still play the part that fate and the world has forced upon her. Wol still protests the title, but the shadow insists that the world has given him that role, and he cannot escape it. She's ready for it.Īfter some sparring, Ultimecia notes that Wol certainly has the strength worthy of a hero. Wol says he's no hero, but he'll stop her anyway. She is still determined to make Time Compression happen, and bring an end to all things.
