In the depths of Tartarus within Persona 3 Reload, adventurers will often encounter Monad Passages, mysterious gateways that lead to challenging encounters with formidable bosses, each possessing unique vulnerabilities and strengths. These confrontations demand strategic insight and knowledge of enemy weaknesses to emerge victorious.
Navigating through the Yabbashah Block of Tartarus, players will face the daunting Phantom Mage within these Monad Passages. This formidable foe presents a significant challenge, especially for those still familiarizing themselves with the game’s combat mechanics and optimal team composition. For those confronted by the Phantom Mage, understanding its weaknesses and assembling the right party is crucial for success.
Players can encounter the Phantom Mage in the sprawling labyrinth of Tartarus, particularly from the 70th to the 89th floors of the Yabbashah Block. This adversary is primarily encountered alone, though occasionally, it may appear in groups, similar to the Hermit boss. Monad Passages, known for hosting multiple bosses, often feature the Phantom Mage early in the passage, setting the stage for intense battles.
Phantom Mage Weaknesses & Resistances
| Slash | Strike | Pierce | Fire | Ice | Electricity | Wind | Light | Dark |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Normal | Normal | Normal | Normal | Normal | Resist | Weak | Repel | Normal |
Engaging the Phantom Mage requires a strategic approach, capitalizing on its specific vulnerabilities. The Phantom Mage exhibits a weakness to Wind attacks while resisting Electric and repelling Light attacks. Although Electric attacks can still inflict damage, they are less effective than Wind attacks, which should be the focus to deplete the Phantom Mage’s health efficiently.
Thanks to her proficiency in Wind attacks, Yukari emerges as an invaluable ally in battles against the Phantom Mage, which can significantly impact the enemy’s health. Depending on the game’s progression, Yukari might have access to Garula or Magarula spells, capable of inflicting medium Wind damage. In addition to Yukari, the protagonist can leverage Personas with Wind abilities, such as Sandman, Kushi Mitama, Clotho, and Angel, found in the Thebel Block, to strengthen the offensive against the Phantom Mage.
Incorporating Aigis into the team adds versatility, with her Physical skills and abilities to enhance the party’s Attack or Defense, proving beneficial in combat. The choice of the final team member, whether Mitsuru or Junpei, depends on the desired balance of Physical or Ice damage, though the bulk of the offensive will rely on Yukari and the protagonist. Preparing with consumables to buff your team or debuff the Phantom Mage can also tip the scales in your favor, ensuring readiness for the challenges that lie within the Monad Passages of Persona 3 Reload.
