KILL ON SIGHT, even if they're alone!'''<br>''(my made up) Legends say that when a Toxit is near, Ravel's Le Gibet from Gaspard de la Nuit starts playing... Those who encountered the Toxit whispers...''<br>''I mean you can try going in and let Toxit {{#skill:2020}} you. Quite fun when you get pulled around and die 2 screens away...''<br> ''I even prefer going {{#item:300379}} than {{#item:4128}} to survive Toxit...''<br>''What element is the best there? Holy? Fire?''<br>''Holy. But toxit will destroy you...''<br>Power Up is a monster skill that triples Hit AND ATK rate for 30 seconds, increasing this drunken '''toxi'''c '''t'''ree's Hit from 723 to 2169 and ATK from 28-42k to 84-126k! But it has the downside of making them easier to kill, as they take triple damage. They're almost always the main reason for dying here because they cast Power Up when they see you, followed by either Pulse Strike or pulling you in with {{#skill:2020}}, then finishing you off with Pulse Strike. Always stay away from Toxit Monsters even as it pulls you towards it, and deal with it ASAP! | ||
*'''Enemy no. 2 - Lunarina.''' These souped up Loli Ruris have {{#skill:2492}}, which will SIGNIFICANTLY slow down your casting for 30 seconds if it connects, and even skills that are instant cast will suddenly have a 1 second cast time! High VIT and/or LUK decreases the chances of getting howled on, but be careful if a Succubus casts "All Stats Down". Once you see them casting, '''INTERRUPT IT ASAP''', keep distance, or one-shot them if possible. Based on my experience, they're not that much of a threat when soloing - they're quite squishy compared to others, so interrupt and kill them. But in parties, a single Lunarina has the potential to almost totally shut down a party because everyone now has a cast time, '''INCLUDING INSTANT CAST SPELLS, FOR 30 SECONDS.''' Find'em quick, kill'em quick, before everyone gets howled on. Maybe designate someone as a Lunarina spotter. When howled on, '''Lauda'''mus te. Benedecimus te. Adoramus te. | *'''Enemy no. 2 - Lunarina.'''

A significantly less annoying version of the Yoscopus Sorcerer and Guardian, they can fully drain your SP but not on the same frequency as the cultists. Still, make sure you have SP potions ready just in case. Likes casting Soul Strike of Darkness. | ||
*'''Enemy no. 4 - High Succubus.''' Can cast some sort of "All Stats Down" skill, but it doesn't seem to be too frequent. Having 100% VCT Reduction and keeping distance from enemies should mitigate its effects. Like the Lunarina, they're squishy, and if you think "All Stats Down" is a downer, be tempted to dispose of them quickly. | *'''Enemy no. 4 - High Succubus.'''

*'''Enemy no. 5 - Chief Knight of Abyss.''' Having High Flee (preferably over 900) should be enough to deal with its powerful {{#skill:397}}... most of the time. Because even with infinity Flee, there will ALWAYS be a 5% chance for attacks to hit. They cast Earthquake at low HP, but it takes a long time for them to do so. Simply move away, which is easier said than done if puller mobs like Toxits and Shadiests are around. Or kill before it can cast Earthquake. | *'''Enemy no. 5 - Chief Knight of Abyss.'''

*'''Enemy no. 6 - Bloody Slasher.''' High Flee and constantly moving should solve most problems. In addition to {{#skill:2006}} from their adult forms, they have Break Equipment Skills and likes casting them too. They're the tankiest of the bunch in this Eroded Bad Land. | *'''Enemy no. 6 - Bloody Slasher.''' High Flee and constantly moving should solve most problems.

*'''Enemy no. 7 - Shadiest.''' Has Break Armor, a pull in the form of {{#skill:2020}} and loves casting {{#skill:92}}. {{#item:12710}} solves the Quagmire problem, but {{#skill:2020}} can be deadly if it's in a horde.
