Aya hops on the elevator, the navy gets involved by sending a pair of planes in to deal with Eve, and a giant spider that needs to get taken out by Aya. How amusing, isn't it?
Anyways, the giant spider is the boss of this dungeon and is not to be taken lightly. It's only slightly similar to its smaller brethren thanks to its melee attack.
While it does still retain the webbing attack, it's been reworked to be far more annoying. Not only does it now fire out three such shots, it won't necessarily be aimed directly where Aya is standing. You can very well get one spawning directly below Aya with no way to dodge. Having as many Cure-Ms as you can hold is vital here so you can pop up to purge the ailment.
After firing the webs, it will very likely go right into its next attack where it feels like doing it's best impression my man X and charging up a giant fireball before launching it at Aya. Sometimes it'll launch the fireball at such a high speed that it can be a little tricky to dodge at times, but otherwise you can be moving in a straight line at an angle away from the boss and it'll just barely miss Aya.
Haste can be useful here, but given its low duration, it's best used if you find yourself far away from the giant spider and need to close the distance quickly. Better to save your PE casts for Heal 2 or 3 to heal up any big hits you take. Remember to swap armors after every few casts to keep your PE gauge refilling at a quick pace too.
After doing enough damage, a transition happens and the fight goes into the 2nd phase. When the screen goes black doing this, hold your right button because when the screen loads in, the spider takes a cheap shot melee strike attempt.
Other than that, phase 2 isn't that different from the first phase. Boss takes more damage and has a variant on its webbing attack where it gets up on its hind legs, fires a web, then delays a few seconds before firing another singular web. These are aimed at Aya's position much like the younger brethren so if you're moving in a straight line, these won't hit.
The boss coughs up a metric boatload of xp when killed, nearly doubling my total xp and granting Aya two levels. It also drops the G23 handgun.
After the fight, Aya confronts Eve. More random words are exchanged, those jets coming in to intercept get deleted by Eve shenanigans, the Eve flees the scene once again.
Aya now needs to get off the roof and fast. The elevator doesn't work so she needs to hoof it to the southwest side of the roof where her ticket to freedom lies. Fail to get there in time and it's a game over for you...and you get to fight the boss again! Isn't that just amazing?
The fun fact? You might still get a game over because after the airplane makes a crash landing, the giant spider STILL isn't dead, shatters the window near Aya, and hits the brake, sending Aya down fast with a little spider in tow that she must kill. Same as the one from the NYPD, but more bulky and hits just as hard as the boss...with basically no room to dodge. This is a race against time to put it down before it can do the same to Aya.
After Aya activates the brake, she's back on the ground with Daniel & Maeda there to meet her. They all drive back to the NYPD where Daniel sheds some more light on Melissa. The big takeaway is that she was seen going into the museum late at night on several occasions, meaning her & Dr.Klamp are definitely in cahoots and need to be stopped.
Back at the NYPD, put anything you need to into storage, then head to Baker's office for a bit more story. Everyone gets to split up and try to stop Eve & Dr.Klamp from making Ultimate Being 2.0 happen.
Day 5 begins next time...and it's the longest day yet!
