I still haven't made a S-Rank on Hector, Seth-Rah, or Hades yet, but atleast I finally got one on Ledah...
Ledah, Malice part 1, Malice part 2, Hector and Seth-Rah.
Hmmmm...
Haven't S-ranked the last of the archer demons.
But I think I've gotten all the bosses... *checks*
Yeah, I've gotten all the bosses.
Blue Fool, only Blue Fool. Coz I didn't get the Blue Bomber. Curses.
Blue Fool and Red Sage.
The only ones I haven't s-ranked were uhm... Dragon Zombie if that counts as a boss... and Malice (the battle towards the end where Ledah gets ownz'd). I think that's it.
I'm not really sure who I've S-ranked and who I haven't, but I KNOW that I haven't S-ranked Ledah, Malice, Hector, or Seth-Rah. I'm sure there are others, but these are the only ones I can remember.
Dragon Zombie (Hades) , Hector, Malice.............
Thats about right.....
S-Ranked Malice PT2 and Seth-Rah on my last run...
So now it's only Ledah, Malice PT1 and Hector.
Oh yes, I forgot about Hades too.
I S-ranked most boss in my er... replay-first playthrough.
I guess I'll have to S-rank Blue Fool in my 3rd playthrough...
Beat game! And, I did...n't S-Rank Seth-Rah or Hades.
Hades and Hector. Talk about H's.
Hades (darn that HP. Guess 30 turns isn't enough) and Blue fool (I can never finish him with a LVL 3 overskill).
What an S-ranked boss gives you.
Aghart- Ignis Spear
Isher- Excalibur
Lindwurm- Tempest Bow
Archangel- Saint Sceptor
Death- Night Scythe
Malice V2- Skadi
Seth-Rah- Longinus
Sub-bosses
Malice V1- NOTHING (unbeatable)
Blue Fool- Blue Bomber
Red Sage- Red viper
Dragon Zombie- NOTHING
Ledah- Lorelai
Malice V3- Hairband
Dark Aghart- Leyte Claws
Dark Isher- Gran Saber

I've done it before, but I can't seem to S-rank Ledah on this play through. ><
I finish him with Disaresta, and I use Serene and Fia with Blue Stinger and Silver Moon, and Ein with Crystal Lance ( Einher-Jar does like 18 damage... ) but I keep getting A's. >.>
Any suggestions? I tried using Fanelia, but that didn't work either.
Blue Fool, Red Sage and Archangel.
Actually Skadi can be won through Malice V2 if you S-rank her. To get the hairband, you have to A-rank her. Regardless, if you S-rank her in V3 if you already did it in V2, you'll always get the Hairband. So you can get 1 in either battles, but not both at once.
As for Ledah, a level 3 overskill works too. And my advice. don't use Einherjar. It gets in the way.
Lineup
1-2 formation
Ein
Fia/Cierra
Serene
Weapons
Zephyr
Pheonix rod/Clene Met
Silver moon
Infinite Arc/Blue Stinger (If you got it) /Kikuichimonji (If you want to use it here, go ahead, I won't stop you)
First part of the battle is simple. lower his HP down to 25%. Use the Zephyr's level 3 overskill to heal as you won't be needing healing items if you do. If you forced him into overdrive, good, he should use it. The point being is that if he uses his overskill, then he will have bought you at least 55 points worth of time. The last part is more difficult. Make sure that either Ein or Serene is able to move at least twice. (can be either or both but settling for either works out too.) Fia or Cierra don't matter. If they can move too, fine. just dwindle his HP down to an amount where there is a good chance that the overskill will hit. Then use it. The key here is to get his HP low enough so that you can kill him in one turn while maintaining a fast speed record. Use high powered items but do not use what you may need in the future like the Fanelia or Longinus. It kills in one turn but it won't give you an S-rank.
No, you cannot get the Skadi from S-Ranking the second Malice.
Unless the data Rai ripped from the cart is wrong. Which is unlikely. Unless he's a bastard.
Really? Because I acquired Skadi by S-ranking Malice V2. It was quite simple. The item displayed does not mean it will be given when you S-rank them. A prime example is the bosses of stages 1-5. All of them have nothing to give you, but if you S-rank them, they will allow you to acquire something that wasn't on their display info. The ignis spear and the Excalibur are part of this.
And just to note, I got it when it first came out. The price was right and It is an official copy. (no rips, no data crappified, no bootleg, no case issues.)
And thing is, If Rai ripped the data, he should have acquired this through S-rank.
What bosses in stage 1-5?
And Rai ripped the data from the ROM, not by playing the game and recording everything.
You get it from the third fight.
But anyways, I believe I already mentioned your sig.

Blue Fool and Red Sage are kind of dependant on each other (if you have an easy time with one, you'll probably have a hard time with the other), but I've gone over this time and time again on this board, previous incarnations of this board, and GFAQs. The easiest way to defeat the Archangel, is to bring Iria's Bow, and use it with Ein, Fia and Lina, and when you're at Level 3, and the angel is at around 2000-3000 HP left (depending on how well Lina is trained) use Barrage. |

Well I haven't won the game yet, but I got an S rank in everything til' the moment. I've Beaten Archangel before She uses her break out.
Before she uses his breakout? o_o; I am confused.
Anyway, I haven't S-Ranked...uh...anyone besides Archangel, mainly because I don't have the patience. And some of them are hard...
Yeah, before the Breakout. Lina managed to do it with a Barrage (2558 dmg).
You used two different gender specifiers is what Enzd is talking about.
"she uses his"
You're right, Sorry. English isn't my natal language...
And I've just S-ranked Hades, but not before his Break Out.
I usually don't try to S-rank Malice V2, but when I did, it gave the Hair Ornament. I didn't get Skadi until I S-ranked Malice V3, even though I S-ranked Malice V2 in the same playthrough.
Yeah, I was meaning to say that "hairband" is wrong...
It's Black Choker for a B-A rank, and Hair Ornament (which is a hairclip) for S rank on the second fight (the first you can win).
And Skadi for the last fight.
It does this because it wouldn't make too much sense if you had Skadi and Malice had Skadi at the same time...
Not to mention using Skadi on Malice is pretty much useless.
Lol, I've S-ranked every boss except Aghart, Isher, and Lindwurm.
Aghart requires strict speed and timing. The main idea is to use Ein's break out every turn. Ledah will fill it right back up anyway. when the time comes, have Ledah use HIS overskill. Make sure its the level 3 version tho.
For Isher, use Serene and give her the Ignis spear. you just shaved off around 250-400 HP off her 1000 already.
For Lindwurm, Its easy. Just use the Excalibur from before. And then attack until you can use Lina's overskill.
Perhaps you should try giving advice that doesn't REQUIRE you S-rank the previous boss.
And Isher is easier to S-Rank by using Fia's LVL3 Rosier overdrive...
What I do is try to get the accursed down pretty low in as short of time as possible. Then, I finish with Ein's (or Ledah's in Chapter 1) EXL Overskill. Most of the time it will give you an S-rank. No guarantees, though.
I have S-ranked every boss, including Hades in Chapter 8. (for those of you who confuse Hades with the Zombie Dragon in Chapter 5).
Nobody confuses Hades with the Zombie Dragon.
Because the Zombie Dragon is infinitely cooler. A cooler looking MAX move, his own CG, more interesting dialogue, and you have to WORK towards him. Hades is just handed to you.
I had read in another thread that somebody did, just makin sure it didn't happen again.
And I agree, Zombie Dragon is cooler, even if he is quicker to beat.
Hmm... yeah, I have a lot of work to do... I've S-ranked most of the bosses, but not the last ones (i.e. Ledah, Hector, Malice, Seth-Rah) nor the Zombie dragon and Hades.
I've S-ranked the bosses from the first few chapters withuot anything special, just fast tactics and finishing with a Lv. 3 or Ein's ExL skill.
EDIT: Looks like I missed Aghart and Isher too... hmm... too bad I already used the Rosier elsewhere... (for Isher) I guess I'll work on them next playthrough...
