Arioch (Stage 10)[edit]Arioch at stage 14 must be critically hit. Build 150%+ crit rate or dependable Might, and cleanse ailments before attacking. A powerful Magic attacker is not a replacement for this requirement.

Overview:
Defensive effects (that make the boss bulky):
Phys/
Fire.
Poison, 
Curse, and 
Weak. A party member with any of these ailments will have reverse damage boost applied to them, reducing their damage output (40% per ailment, up to 120%).
Barriers at the start of your turn. So if you plan to use them, you'll need to apply them mid-turn. Curse can reduce the boss's healing, but you can't inflict it directly. Instead, you need to inflict Weak first to make Curse guaranteed to succeed, and then apply Curse.Offensive effects (that make the boss dangerous):
Phys AoE, but he starts by giving himself 
Charge first, then attacking. This means he cannot lose press turns by hitting into Phys anti-pierce (or by missing, but he has +300% accuracy, so he won't miss anyway), but it also means he can't gain turns by hitting your weaknesses (and you are guaranteed to be Phys weak due to his 3 levels of affinity down). It also has Remnants, so he will spam this attack a lot.
Poison, Curse, or Weak on will have reverse damage reduction applied to them, making them take more damage from the boss's attacks (10% per ailment, up to 30%).
Fortify, the boss will apply 3 counts of 
Decay to your entire team.
Might and Charge at the end of your turn.Effectively, you need the following:
Phys/ Fire attacks. Might. Weak and Curse to the boss, in that order. Poison, Curse, and Weak from teammates, multiple times per turn.
Corrosion to make the boss hit less hard.Other notes:

Arioch (Stage 12)[edit]Arioch at stage 14 must be critically hit. Build 150%+ crit rate or dependable Might, and cleanse ailments before attacking. A powerful Magic attacker is not a replacement for this requirement.
Berserker GutsLimited collaborationBerserker Armor adds 100% crit rate and Berserk adds its own 50% crit chance, giving a suitable baseline against the boss’s 50% crit penalty. The two single-target hits ignore counters and death prevention.

Watch out: His self-inflicted fractional damage makes HP management important; do not treat him as a long-fight solo unit.

Setup: Max skill and Panel 2 improve sustained MP economy.
