Re: Viocide (Xi Company )
You get the EX ice sword there I think. The bonus dungeon is damn hard. You basically have 1 room where there is two of the 1st bosses there (and with in 20x the HP), then theres a room with a super-buffed 2nd boss (tail-vore) and she also has a lot of HP and friends. Once you can sorta kill the room with the two 1st bosses, you get very good exp and money there. I pretty much level up there and farmed money to buy all the gear there.
I found the room to be real hard and the only way i was able to beat them was using a fully charged sword attack over and over hoping for crits.
Starting from the room with a recharge point/equipment dispenser right before the final boss area...
1) Head down the ladder.
2) Head right through the Security 3 Door (magenta door.)
3) You'll encounter a couple enemies straight from the first area, but with severely enhanced stats, with HP starting from about 1.5k. Head right through the Sec 2 Door (it's blue.)
4) You are now in the bonus dungeon building proper. (実験動物研究棟, Experimental Animal Research Building, AKA Area 93.). There are no enemies though, so just head right through the Sec 3 Door. Switch to the fire blaster first though.
5) You'll get ambushed by a blue slime. Torch it to death. There are a couple more blue slimes with buffed up stats hanging around, so keep the fire blaster around and use its charged spread attack liberally. The door to the right side of the room only opens once all monsters are defeated.
6) Empty room. Switch back to your ice blaster and then climb the ladder.
7) This room has two doors. Both doors only open after all enemies are defeated. The left one leads to a Power Booster Ex (or possibly Energy Booster Ex instead, I may have misremembered.), while the right leads to the next area. Defeat all enemies. There's also a beefed-up Alraune on the very right side of the map, but like all Alraunes she's a sitting duck for ranged or charged melee attacks since she can't move.
Head through the left door once you're done.
8) Grab the powerup and head back to the previous room. Kill all enemies again, and then head right once the doors are unlocked.
9) Another empty room with a ladder. Climb it.
10) This room has two giant frogs (first boss enemy, but beefed up.) with obscene amounts of HP. (approx 11k) Like in (7), this room also has two doors that only open after all enemies have been defeated, and the left door leads to a powerup. (Ice Blaster Ex) Note the way the platforms are arranged. Hit the first with charged melee attacks from your blaster while avoiding its ranged attacks. (which slow you down.) Once the boss is stopped by the higher platform on the left, jump over its head to get to the other side before it manages to climb up. Note the raised platform on the right. Continue hitting the boss with charged melee attacks, jumping over its head when you run out of room behind you. Try not to attract the attention of the second giant frog on the right. Once the first frog is dead, kill the second one by using the same method. After both are dead,
head through the left door.
If jumping over the bosses is too hard to do, climb down the ladder instead to avoid their attacks, and pop up to hit them in the back with charged melee attacks when they turn around.
Also, if you are ranged-specced, you may want to use the fire blaster charged spread shot instead, as it's more powerful than the ice blaster's equivalent.
11) Pick up the Ice Blaster Ex. Head right back where you came from, and then kill the two frog bosses again. Head right again to the next area.
12) Another empty room with a ladder. You know what to do.
13) This room has tough enemies, and a severely beefed up Ice Area boss (the succubus with the tail attack.) with nearly 25k HP. Unless you're defenced-specced (which is a bad idea anyway), you'll probably die in one hit (okay, 'attack sequence') from its tail vore attack even if you have full HP.
There is a single locked door to the left which only opens after all enemies are dead.
There are two other types of monsters -- the floating jellyfish (approx 2k HP) and the stunted salamander (approx 3k HP) from the fire area. You are likely to be rushed by the salamander the moment you climb up the ladder. Kill it ASAP, preferably with charged melee attacks from your brand new Ice Blaster Ex. Ranged-specced characters have it tough here, though the fire blaster is still a better choice if you're using charged ranged attacks. (you probably don't have time for a second charged attack, so switch to the Ice Blaster Ex instead as it has a stronger normal attack, a higher crit rate, and faster attack speed.)
If you're cornered by the boss and the lesser enemies, choose to be vored (or ideally, knocked back, but that is hard to pull off) by the jellyfish instead, or the salamander if a jellyfish isn't nearby. Break out ASAP (Tap Z or melee attack) and take advantage of the temporary invincibility to get away quickly.
If this is too hard to pull off, go back to the frog bosses' area (or the previous room with the Alraune, if killing the frog boss takes too long.) and kill it repeatedly for gems and xp. Go back to an equipment dispenser to buy the best quality equipment when you can afford it.
My speed-specced Lvl 24 Mina with end-game gear can consistently kill the salamander in two hits, thanks to a critical rate around 60% and a very fast charge rate. (due to high Agility) Having a high luck also makes farming for gems significantly easier.
Once the salamander is dead, you'll get more room to manoeuvre under the succubus. Kill the jellyfish on the right ASAP, and jump over its head to the right if it's necessary, try to avoid drawing the attention of more enemies on the right side of the map. With both the salamander and the jellyfish dead you'll get lots of room to move around the boss. Avoid its swooping attacks, ducking if it's necessary (if you're cornered, for example.) and hit it with charged ice blaster melee hits or charged fire blaster spread shots. Run under the succubus to get to its other side if you run out of manoeuvring space, and only do so AFTER it has just finished swooping. Do not get too close unless it's absolutely necessary, and take care not to aggro more enemies from the right.
Once the succubus is dead, mop up any surviving enemies, and then enter the door to the left.
14) They may be a powerup in this room, but only if you haven't picked it up before. Otherwise, you'll get nothing, bragging rights aside.
(
it's a Fire Blaster Ex, and you may want to pick it up beforehand f you rely on the Fire Blaster's charged spread.)
15) Congratulations, you've just finished the game!
Thank you.
