So we figured out why we can't beat Trumpeter...

[Soushi_Grapple]

So my gf put this down because she was stuck on Trumpeter. She's level 60, btw. Turns out she completely missed some of the bosses and only completed Labrynth of Amala #1. X.x Anyone ever pass up stuff in a game on accident?

This is why I am stuck on Tales of Phantasia GBA. XD I'm at some mine but I missed out on 2 dungeons or something like that and have to backtrack..

Trumpeter has three moves

Megidolaon
Holy Melody
Evil Melody

Holy Melody will always heal the person on the field with the lowest HP, Trumpeter included. Evil Melody will always kill the persona on the field with the lowest HP, except Trumpeter. This actually overrides anything that voids death on your side, kinda like the Dormina + Calm Death combo will.

Megidola will be a threat to anyone that does not have evasion buffed. Also a big problem.

So buff evasion/attack/defense and debuff Trumpeter, heal each turn and summon the weakest demon you have in your ranks. You'll spend most of the early fight buffing up, but doing so will minimize the damage.

Holy and Evil Melody do not rate on HP percentage values, but targets the character with the lowest actual HP or lowest max HP if everyone has full HP. If you drag something like, say, Lilim into this fight, she's always going to be the target of either skill. As such, revive her with a weak revive item or recarm, If Megidola gets her, so be it, raise her again, she's your bait for the Melody attacks.

Once you've pumped up on buffs, unload some physical attacks on him.
