Rag | Final Fantasy V: Classic Team Vs Shinryu Superboss, Safe Autobattle Style @RagnarokiaNG | Uploaded July 2020 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Shinryu fought properly is a horrible encounter, but with a little Cheese he's a Breeze!
Quick rundown: low HP party for Knight to cover. White Mage casts Berserk on Shinryu. Knight evades all attacks with Mini, Genji Shield, Main Gauche or Defender, Elven Cloak and Mirage Vest. Black mage kills the boss. Add an extra Blink on Knight for good measure but it isn't needed.
Explanation: Berserk on Shinryu will prevent him casting any spells, however his relentless physical attacks can easily 1 shot anyone. Enter the Knight who will cover for low HP allies meaning they are 100% safe as long as the Knight survives. Then we give the cast Mini on the Knight (can be done before the fight as during the fight Genji Shield will block mini being cast) and their chance to evade attacks is doubled. The Genji shield then gives them practically 100% evasion chance, add to that the Elven Cloak and the Main Gauche / Defender for added Evasion and the Mirage Vest for a bonus Blink charge to evade a single successful attack and you have basically won the fight. Our White mage also casts an extra Blink for good measure as our Black mage deals with killing the Superboss on his own as sadly he absorbs Holy element so our White Mages just have a break.
Bonus notes: Genji Shield is obtainable from Gilgamesh without a Thief thanks to the Thief Knife found in Mirage Village in the Pub behind the counter in a barrel, also I forgot to equip the Magus Rod onto our Black Mage though the fight was still quick without it.
