[[File:Betel with traps.png|thumb|right|With this positioning, the traps won't hurt the rest of your team]] Since Betelguese is Dragon, Dragon Tank EMs are a very cheap and effective tank against Betel, as they will take 1 damage from its skills and attacks if they have 100% dragon resist. Also note that Betelguese is neutral property, so the {{#item:27109}}, {{#item:27107}}, and {{#item:27108}} Combo is a very useful against it. | [[File:Betel with traps.png|thumb|right|With this positioning, the traps won't hurt the rest of your team]] Since Betelguese is Dragon, Dragon Tank EMs are a very cheap and effective tank against Betel, as they will take 1 damage from its skills and attacks if they have 100% dragon resist.

The main strategy for the fight mainly focuses on avoiding both the powerful traps and | The main strategy for the fight mainly focuses on avoiding both the powerful traps and Betel's powerful skills. Luckily, while the traps spawn in the middle corridor of the map, the rest of the map is not affected by the traps. As such, there are safe zones on the map for the party to sit while your tank lures Betelguese to you and tanks it. Particularly, the location on the bottom left is a great spot for the team to hang out. | ||
At the start of the fight, have your EM cast Land Protector on the bottom left area for your team to stand on. LP will prevent AOE skills like Comet from dealing damage to your team. Please note that the edges of LP do not provide any protection, so you will want to place it one cell up and one cell right, as you see in the images. | At the start of the fight, have your EM cast Land Protector on the bottom left area for your team to stand on.

Additionally, Betelguese casts Max Pain which reflects all damage taken to your team and will effectively wipe your whole time if they damage it while it is in Max Pain. The cast can be interrupted and the skill can be dispelled. However, skills like Shadow Cross' {{#skill:5001}} and Ninja's {{#skill:3024}} will nullify the reflect as well. If Betelguese starts to cast Max Pain, stop hitting it until these skills are cast. | Additionally, Betelguese casts Max Pain which reflects all damage taken to your team and will effectively wipe your whole time if they damage it while it is in Max Pain.

* EMs should have both {{#item:1100005}} and {{#item:607}} to tank the boss. While they won't take much damage from Betel, the traps will do significant damage to the EM. Whenever it is hit by the traps, the EM should use the ygg berry, and they should use other consumables for any chip damage they might take during the fight. | * EMs should have both {{#item:1100005}} and {{#item:607}} to tank the boss.

* {{#item:6293}} is a very useful item, especially in cases where you die further away from your cardinals (e.g. when trying to kill the dead souls). | |||
* Betel has long cast times for some of its skills. As such, {{#skill:277}} is a useful skill to spam on Betel to cancel some of its skills (including Max Pain and Comet). | |||
