Suikoden I & II HD Remaster: Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars - Suikoden 1 Walkthrough

---

Make sure to start the game on Hard difficulty. Once you do, you cannot change it to lower difficulties, but beating game entirely on hard is required for a trophy. You can't start on lower difficulty and switch to Hard near the end - that will not work.

Prologue

Choose a name for Hero, and you'll start on the second floor of Gregminster Royal Palace. To proceed, talk to the NPC next to where you started (Teo).

If you have the early purchase bonus for the Suikoden Remasters, you will obtain the following at the start of the game:

• 57300 potch (money)
• Fortune Orb x1
• Prosperity Orb x1

You can attach The Fortune Orb to any character at any rune shop, turning it into a Fortune Rune - which doubles the EXP gain for that character. The Prosperity Orb turns into Prosperity Rune - which doubles Potch (money) obtained after battle.

So, talk to Teo and watch the scene. Descend to the first floor and speak with Kraze inside the office on the left side, then talk to Teo again. Once you leave the castle, you'll automatically be sent to your home (McDohl household). Let's head back into the city of Gregminster before exploring our home.

Go back inside the castle, right from Krazes office, and examine the suit of armor far to the right for 100 Potch.

Gregminster

The inn in Gregminster is free. You can rest here and save your game. You can also find Item, Armor, and Appraisal Shops - You can upgrade your equipment if you want, but make sure to check the inventory of every item and armor shop in the game. Later you'll be able to buy items from any shop you've been to previously, so make sure to at least check each shop.

Before you explore Hero's home, there's a bonus you can get at this point - a spare Fortune Orb or Prosperity Orb, in addition to the ones obtained as DLC. You cannot get both.
Fortune Orb - you need to explore the world with Hero only.
Prosperity Orb - you need to recruit Ted at the McDohl household (just go on the second floor and he will join your team), and then explore the world. There's not much point to having two Prosperity Orbs, so if you already have one, I would suggest getting another Fortune Orb. Once you recruit Gremio, Pahn, and Cleo, you can no longer get these rewards.

World Map (around Gregminster)

Good news - there is no trophy for filling all bestiary entries or defeating them, so no need to worry about it. Level up a bit before you continue (around level 8 - 10 is ok).

Directly east of Gregminster is the town of Rockland. You can challenge Marco to a cup-shuffling minigame (he is just next to the entrance). The mini-game cannot be exploited anymore in this version, so it's tough to win for 10k reward. Make sure to visit all shops and check what they sell.

Directly south of Gregminster is Lenankamp. There is a Blacksmith here. You can spend potch to strengthen weapons for each character. Every ugprade is permanent. This blacksmith can only rank up your weapons to rank 5, but eventually you'll be able to get to rank 16.

The armor shop sell some upgrades. Buy them. Make sure to check also the item shop.

Head west of Gregminster to Mt. Tigerwolf (cross the southwestern bridge).

Mount Tigerwolf

Avoid opening chests as your inventory is probably full by now. We will come back here anyway (with a full party).

Head up the linear path and follow it to the end. Skip all chests, and when you exit to world map go north and enter Sarady.

Saradi

In here, you can buy a Water Orb from the shop, which can be attached to a character to become a Water Rune (you need 7k Pouch, yikes!).
Speak to the NPC in the upper right house. If Hero is alone, you'll get Fortune Orb. If you recruited Ted, you'll get Prosperity Orb.

Head back to Gregminster when ready (walk all the way back).

Gregminster

When ready to proceed, head inside your house, second floor, lower-left room - for a series of scenes. After the scenes go downstairs to get more characters:

Gremio, Cleo, Pahn, Ted - Automatic recruits.

Attach Properity Orb to Cleo or Gremio, and Water Orb if you've bought it. It's important to buy all the best equipment for your party members (in Lenankamp to the south) and to level them up. Winged Boots in Gregminster are awesome, but a bit expensive.

Early game money farming

Directly east of Gregminster is the town of Rockland. You can challenge Marco to a cup-shuffling minigame. Collect 10k pouch beforehand, save and challenge him for 10k. Make sure to record video with your phone or some camera, then when he is waiting for you to guess, replay the video at lower speed. I've managed to get 80k here and buy everything + sharpen weapons to level 5 for everyone.

Let's go and pick up the items in Mt. Tigerwolf you've missed before.

Mt. Tigerwolf

Pick up all the chest in a linear path:

• Circlet
• Medicine
• Gloves
• Wind Rune Piece
• Antique (Octopus Urn, must be appraised)
• Medicine
• Clone Orb
• 1000 Potch

Gregminster

Head back to Kraze at the Gregminster castle 1F office to get your assignments. Outside, on the east side of the castle is the dragon-rider, Futch, who will take you to Magician's Island.

Magician's Island

This is a linear area with only two chests:

• Medicine (slightly hidden on left side of the path)
• Fur Robe

On your way you will battle against first boss - Golem. It should be easy if you prepared your party with sharpened weapons and improved equipment

After the boss, keep following the linear path for a few scenes with Leknaat and Luc. During the scenes, you'll get the Astral Predications key item and a Fire Orb. You'll be sent back to Gregminster.

Gregminster

Report to Kraze at Gregminster Castle 1F. You'll get a mission to go to Rockland.

Celadon Pot

If you want, you can farm fur enemies to drop ??? appraisal items. When you appraise that, you can get Celadon pot, but other than displaying it later in your castle, there is nothing else gained from having it.

Rockland

Head to the big north building for a scene. You'll be tasked to go to Mt. Seifu to the east of Rockland.
Buy at least one Escape Talisman. These allow you to leave dungeons more easily.

Go to Mt. Seifu east of Rockland.

Mt. Seifu

Yet another linear dungeon. On the five-way split, take the center left-north path is where you need to go, so open chest in other paths first:

• Boots
• Medicine
• Antique (??? Urn - Flower Vase)
• 1000 Potch
• PROT Rune Piece - Use it to raise a character's Protection Stat. Hero is a good a character to use it on.
• Medicine
• Escape Talisman
• Greaves

You can't win boss battle against Queen Ant, so just defend for three turns.

Continue and pick up the next item:

• Lightning Rune Piece

At the top, you'll fight an event battle with bandits, then a a boss battle that you can win.

Boss: Varkas and Sydonia. Take out Sydonia first, heal with Medicines when needed.
You'll automatically leave back to Rockland after winning. Walk there on the map.

Rockland

Take items off fromTed. He'll leave the party soon. Sell his equipment items if you want to. >You can take items off of Pahn, too, if you want.
Approach soldiers northeast, and choose to "Fight" for an event battle. Head into the northern house for a scene, tead back to Gregminster.

Gregminster

A series of scenes takes place inside.  After Ted leaves the party, head to McDohl's house.
During the events at McDohl's house, talk to your party members, and head downstairs. Talk to everyone, and eventually, you'll get the Soul Eater Rune and end up outside. Head to the Inn.

Once you gain control, talk to Cleo and Gremio, then try to leave the inn. You'll see an event with Viktor.
Follow Viktor outside and talk to him, then head to the city entrance. After more events, you'll end up outside Gregminster.

Place Viktor in the front row and Cleo in the back, because Viktor has short range, while Cleo can attack from the second row.

Head to Lenankamp (south).

Lenankamp

Watch more scenes.

Stay at the Inn to proceed. Talk to the NPC behind the clock when you gain control. After more scenes, try to leave via the north exit and talk to the NPC on the ground. Answer with "It's our fault."

Head back to Rockland. Change formation, sharpen weapons and see you in Rockland.

Rockland

Talk to the guard at the north building's door for a scene.
Head through the front door, fight the event battle, and open the chest for Medicine.
Continue left through the house, picking up Chest Plate, Antique (appraise to identify as Hex Doll), 700 Potch, and 1000 Potch in side rooms.
Talk to Varkas outside for an event. Head back to the entrance of Rockland for more scenes.

Return to Lenankamp.

Lenankamp

Head back to the base through the clock in the Inn.
Talk to Odessa for some scenes, and she'll join the party.

Head back to Sarady through Mt. Tigerwolf. On the way, you'll see a scene at the building partway through the path. Afterwards, you can stay the night here for free to heal up if needed.

Sarady

Enter the building near the entrance (Inn), and stay the night for a scene.

Head all the way back to Lenankamp. Odessa will be leaving the party soon, so you can remove stuff from her if you want.

Lenankamp

Head to the Inn to for a series of events. Head to the Liberation Hideout for two event battles. Head south for a third event battle, then talk to Odessa.

You need to head to Kwaba Fortress, which is South, Southwest of Lenankamp.

Fortress Kwaba

The name you choose doesn't matter, but they all kick ass. Head south through the fortress for some scenes.
You can speak with Chandler on the left, but he doesn't do anything yet.

Go to Seika first, which is directly south.

Seika

Talk to Mathiu right from the middle building. Then go to his house up the stairs. Talk to the children, then back into town and talk to Mathiu again. Head back to Mathiu's house, talk to him and go back to town. Return upstairs to interfere for an event battle. Talk to Mathiu in the house.

After the event, we need to head to Kaku, which is south, southwest of Seika.

Kaku

You can buy better armors here. The blacksmith still can't go beyond rank 5 for your weapons. If you want, you can head south to Kouan, which has even better armor.

Head to the bar on the south side of the city. Talk to red-haired girl for an event, after which Camille will join up. Go to basement and talk to Tai Ho. You must beat him once at his dice game to continue. Once that's done, he'll head for the harbor, and so will you, so you can talk to him there and go to Castle of Toran.

Castle of Toran

Tai Ho will join.

If you need to, you can speak with Yam Koo to return to Kaku. It might be a good idea to buy Tai Ho's armor to make him a bit stronger. I also advise you to attach Fire Orb to someone so you can use Fire Rune magic (I did that on Viktor). Even better fit for him is Clone Orb. Stock up on Medicines and with that, you should be ready for the first major boss of the game - It's doable on level 16, but if you go higher, it can only get easier.

Chests are easy to find, so I will just mention them:

• Mega Medicine
• Toe Shoes
• Antitoxin
• 2000 Potch
• STR Rune Piece
• Pointy Hat
• Medicine
• Antitoxin
• Wind Orb (pass through an invisible opening in the wall, just west of the north chest)
• Haziness Orb (head through an invisible opening in the wall, northwest of the south chest, then down, right, down, and left)

Boss: Zombie Dragon - He's weak to Fire. The rest is about healing and attacking.

After all the scenes, you can name your castle. I will call it Hero's Castle, but Toran is the default game name.

If you talk to Luc you can see your current recruited "Stars of Destiny". If you've followed this guide so far, these are the Stars of Destiny you'll have at this point:

• Hero (Main Character) (1/108)
• Mathiu (2/108)
• Luc (3/108)
• Gremio (4/108)
• Cleo (5/108)
• Viktor (6/108)
• Camille (7/108)
• Tai Ho (8/108)
• Yam Koo (9/108)
• Pahn (he is also counted at this point even though he's not here) (10/108)

Talk to Mathiu to get your assignment. Cleo and Viktor will also rejoin your battle party.

You can now use Yam Koo and Luc. Be sure to give them better equipment if you plan use them. Luc is a great magic dealer, and not a bad choice at this point.

Lepant's Mansion

This is mini-dungeon. In the room with the guards, avoid their line of sight.

You'll also meet Juppo, but he won't join yet. At the end of Lepant's mansion you'll encounter a spinning wheel. Which panel you land on is completely random. Landing on the ? space will reward you with Dragon Incense, which is an infinite-use item that heals a small amount of HP to the party in battle. This pairs well with the Clone Rune on Viktor. Try to get it. Leave and heal if you need to.

Once you end up on the north side, you'll pick up the Kirinji sword. Make your way back to Krin, which will lead to scenes in the Inn.

Kouan

There will be some scenes with Lepant, after which heal, save and then go north from the Inn for more scenes and a fight inside the house.

After the event battle, check the lower left room for a Water Rune Piece. Go upstairs. The left room has an Antique (appraises for Hex Doll). The right room continues the story, and you'll fight another event battle. The choices make after the fight does not affect the story.

Afterwards, Pahn will rejoin, alongside with Lepant (20/108). Eileen (21/108), Krin (22/108), Juppo (23/108), and Giovanni (24/108) also join.

Your HQ has reached Level 2! Exit and re-enter to see some changes. We can now recruit more characters.

Make sure Lepant and Juppo are in your battle party, for recruitment purposes.

After the scene, exit to the east.

Great Forest is relatively linear, with just a few branching paths. Shortly after entering the Great Forest you'll recruit Viki (31/108). Viki has a Blinking Rune that can teleport you from your HQ to anywhere around the world (to places you've visited).

One screen east of Viki is a Gauntlet. South and East is an Escape Talisman. Continue for Needle, Water Rune Piece (to the south of the previous chest, hidden in the tree braches), and  LCK Rune Piece.

You'll soon enter Kobold Village. After a short scene, exit to the east.

Head south to Village of the Elves.

Village of the Elves

Head up the ladder for a scene. Head north and talk to the Elven Elder for a scene. You'll end up in prison. After the scenes in prison, leave the village and Valeria will join you temporarily. Her Falcon Rune is awesome. It can be used from either row.

Buy equipment and check the shops. Head to Dwarf Trail that is east and slightly to the north of Village of the Elves.

Dwarf Trail

You'll see a short scene near the end of the path. It's another linear dungeon, so make sure to pick up all chests along the way:

In the next maze room, pick up Pointy Hat, DEX Rune Piece, and Medicine.

In the next puzzle room press the buttons in this order: Left, Right, Right, Left, Left, Left, Right, Right.

At the 4-way intersection, pick up Mega Medicine on the left, and 5000 Potch to the right. Lastly, go north.

At the next intersection, head southwest and pick up Escape Talisman. Then head downstairs.

Boss: Gigantes. It's weak to wind, immune to fire. Just attack with your regular attacks and runes, he is not tough.

At the 3-way fork, head left for PROT Rune Piece.

Head down the center path for the key item Flowing Water Cane. Use the Escape Talisman you picked up before the boss to quickly leave.

Dwarf Village

Talk to the Dwarf Chieftain for a scene. Head back to the Village of the Elves through the Dwarf Trail, where you will see another scene. Continue to Village of the Elves, or return through Kobold Village to Kouan to pick up Lorelei if Hero is level 25.

Head to Village of the Kobolds.

Village of the Kobolds

Valeria will leave your party momentarily, but Kuromimi joins. After an event battle, you'll have your first War Battle in Suikoden.

War Battle #1 - Battle at Pannu Yakuta Castle

In Suiko war battles, Bow beat Magic, Magic beats Charge, and Charge beats Bow. Your characters can die in these battles, make sure to avoid that as it will void the trophy for getting all stars.

In this battle, use Luc's magic on Round One, which is good agains Kwanda's attack. Use Other: Thieves to see which type of attack will enemy initiate to counter easily, but be aware that it sometimes fails.

After the fight your party will be full.

Pannu Yakuta Castle

The right-hand door is an Inn you can use for free.

Go back outside, and pick up an Iron Shield from the left door.

Head up through the center door. Northwest is a Half Armor. The room on the center east side of 1F has a Gauntlet. Head up the center stairs.

Northwest room has Medicine, northeast room has Old Book Vol. 1, southeast room has Gale Orb, southwestern room has Lightning Rune Piece. Head up to 3F via the southern stairs inside.

Head north to fight the next boss: Dragon.

Boss: Dragon - Weak to Wind. I've used Dragon Inscence to heal with Viktor on almost every turn, and just attacked with what I've had with others. Not hard.

You may want to leave and Save at the Village of the Elves, because we will have our first Duel fight and some important choices.

Duel #1 - Kwanda

Attack beat Defend, Defend againt Special and Special against Attack. 

You need to guess which will opponent's next move be based on his dialogues, but luckly, check the options here and use them agains Kwanda.

Kwanda Attacks:
You're good. Can you withstand this?
You got me! Perhaps I have underestimated you.
You don't stand a chance! But I shall show no mercy!
Hahaha! Puny attacks like that won't work on me!
Grrr! You are good, son of Teo! Now it's my turn!
You shall taste the sharpness of my blade!
At a loss, are you? But I'll show you no mercy!
Damn! I underestimated you.
Ha ha! You'll have to do better than that!
Heh, now it's my turn.
Taste the sharpness of my blade!
That's nothing!
What's the matter? If you won't attack, then I will!
Well done. But can you take this?
Whoa! Pretty good, Teo's little boy. Now it's my turn!
You're better than I thought. But how about this?

Kwanda Defends:
It's no use! I see through your attack!
Come on, your turn! Come at me with everything you've got!
How cautious you are...As befits a leader.
Think you can break through my impenetrable defenses, do you?
You got me! But not this time!
Come on, you're boring me. Show me what you've got!
Arghhh! I underestimated you.
Carefully...
Cautious, aren't you. Just like a leader.
Damn! My turn!
Don't bore me. Show me what you can do.
Forget it. Your methods are obvious.
Now it's your turn. Come on!
Pretty good. How about another one?
What now?
Can you break my invulnerable defenses?

Kwanda Special:
Take this!
Haha, come on! Once more!
Very well...If that's how you want it!
This is going nowhere. Very well...Prepare yourself!
Victory is decided in an instant! I shall put my all into this strike!
Impossible! How are you able to dodge my attacks?!
Here we go again!
I'll get you!
I'll show you how it's done.
Impossible! You can't avoid my blows!
Interesting. How about another round?
Take that!
The next one won't be so easy!
Victory is near! I strike with all my might!
We're getting nowhere. Here I come!
Well done. You're a worthy opponent. Now it's my turn!

After you win, talk with Kwanda. Choose "Something's wrong here" and "I want you to join us."

After the events, Kwanda (35/108), Sylvina (36/108), and Stallion (37/108) will join your army, alongside with Valeria (38/108) and Kuromimi (39/108). Congrats!

There will be a few fixed fights with guards, 4 groups in total. Defeat them all and loot cells:

Recruiting Pirates

We need to beat a relatively tough battle to recruit three characters. You need Yam Koo and Tai Ho in your party. Tai Ho will be required later, so it's worthwhile to power him up a bit. Buy each a Turtle Orb in Village of the Dwarves, which will allow you to use their Unite attack every turn.

Bring your strongest team.

Location: Island northwest from Teien after using a boat there to travel
Beat them in 3 rounds to get them to join. I've used Yam Koo and Tai Ho with Turtle Orbs so I can spam their Unite attack every turn. Flik was using his level 3 600 damage lightning spell, Viktor attack, Cleo Level 3 Fire 400 all attack rune, Hero with level 2 rune magic 300 damage to all. It was easy.

Headquarters

Before doing anything else, make sure Pahn is above level 30 with good equipment and a sharpened weapon. At HQ, talk to Mathiu in the War Room. Kasumi will join automatically (64/108).

There's an unwinnable War Battle. Then, a duel.

Duel #2 - Teo

Attack beat Defend, Defend againt Special and Special against Attack. 

You need to guess which will opponent's next move be based on his dialogues, but luckly, check the options here and use them.

Teo Attacks:
This is getting nowhere... Here I come!
Saw through my attack, did you?
Is that all you've got? Now it's my turn!
Pathetic, Pahn. Let me show you how it's done!
My sword is still sharp as ever!
You got me with that one, Pahn... Now it's my turn!
Do you see how we're mismatched?
Pretty good, Pahn.
The numbness in my hands, it's real.
All you can do is defend, Pahn? No mercy!

Teo Defends:
Come at me, Pahn!
It seems I lost my cool. I must be more careful...
This next one will not get past me!
Impressive, Pahn, seeing through my attack like that. I must be more cautious.
All right, do it again!
Come on, Pahn. See if you can kill me.
Do you give up?
What's the matter, Pahn? How about another round?
You're a smart one, Pahn.
You're better than I thought.

Teo Special:
You have shown me your techniques... Now, I shall show you mine!
If you will not come at me... then I shall come to you!
My most powerful technique...
Can you dodge my blade, Pahn?
Excellent, Pahn. You're a real fighter. Here's another!
Finish me with a single blow!
Hmmm. Here I come again!
Impossible! Take that!
That's... no good.
The next one will be more painful.

If you did everything right, Pahn should survive the duel. If Pahn dies, you won't be able to get all 108 Stars of Destiny.

You'll be brought back to base. Sleep in your room on 4F - on the left wing. Talk to Flik in the War Room. Meet Gen and Kamandol at the docks for a new ship. Put Tai Ho in your party. We also need to level up Kirkis to level 35, it'a good time to start using him.

You need to guess which will opponent's next move be based on his dialogues, but luckly, check the options here and use them.

Teo Attacks:
Do you understand now just how great the difference in our strength is?
This is going nowhere... Here I come!
Always on the defensive... That will not bring you victory!
Did you see that coming?
That was nothing. Now it's my turn.
That was pretty good. Now it's my turn.
The numbness in my hands, it's real!
Well done!
You're soft...soft! This is how you attack!
Here I come, my son.

Teo Defends:
Impressive, seeing through my attack like that... I must be more cautious myself.
Show me how strong you have become!
The leader of the Liberation Army... No wonder you are cautious.
Hmm? Finished already?
Good, try it again!
I mustn't underestimate you.
I underestimated you! What's wrong? Another round?
I'll see you coming next time!
I'm losing my cool. I must be more cautious!
Show me what you've learned.

My most powerful technique...
My sword is the sword of His Majesty the Emperor. I shall not hold back!
This one will hit its mark!
If you will not come at me... then I shall come to you!
Think you can surpass me, do you?
I'm delighted, my son. You're quite a warrior. But here's another!
My deadly sword...

You need to put Liukan in your party and return. Don't worry about equipping him. After the scene, Milia will join (97/108). Milia will have to fight a boss, so you probably want to strengthen her weapon and equipment.

When you are ready, interact with the red dragon in Dragon Knights' Fortress - entrance; to go to Seek Valley.

Seek Valley

Pick up along the way:

• Master's Robe
• At the three-way fork, head northwest for Sound Set 2. Then take the center fork (we will return to the right fork later).

Griffith will join after the battle (choose to Recruit him) (102/108). He and Taggart count after Moravia events.

Headquarters

For the next section, Kasumi and Krin are required. Make sure to give them better equipment, especially Kasumi's weapon. 
Make sure to pick up the Old Book Vol. 7 at Northern Checkpoint (simply reenter the location).

Shasarazade

Pick up items along the way:

• Chaos Shield
• Guard Ring
• Master's Garb
• Mega Medicine (Left at the T intersection)

Boss: Shell Venus - Weak to Lightning and Earth. I hope you've brough some Healers like Crowley that can both attack and heal with his level 4 Cyclone Rune magic. It's about healing and dealing the most damage you can.

Pick up Thunder Orb on the left and return back for another boss.

Boss: Sonya - She has way less HP than Shell boss. Simply attack and heal up, usually she attacks single targets, but her rune magic can deal massive damage that requires healing your party.

Headquarters

Before doing anything else, head to the basement in the HQ.

Character Recruit - Sonya (108/108)

Location: Headquarters - Basement 
After you complete Shasarazade events, talk to her in the basement in your HR - choose "I want you to join us" and "It doesn't matter".

Afterwards, talk to Mathiu and initiate the next war battle.

War Battle #8 - The Last Battle

Use the Ninjas to see what the enemy is going to do, and thieves when you run out of ninjas. Power up your charge attacks when you can. Magic > Charge, Charge > Bow, Bow > Magic.

Gregminster

For Gregminster and the final section of the game, Flik and Viktor are required. That is great, because they are my main party members from the start.

Check the shops for the best purchaseable items in the game. This is the last chance to prepare for Suikoden 2. Make sure you have someone for healing, like Crowley, or someone else with Flowing Rune and some others as magic casters (Hero, Flik, Crawley for me).

One note - the following characters are playable in Suikoden 2. If you MAX out their weapon in Suikoden 1 (reach level 16), they'll get a +3 starting bonus to their weapon level in the sequel:

• Clive
• Flik
• Futch
• Hix
• Humphrey
• Kasumi
• Lorelai
• Luc
• Hero
• Meg
• Pesmerga
• Sheena
• Stallion
• Tengaar
• Valeria
• Viktor

Put the Windspun Armor (that you'll get shortly) on Humprey if you have him. Most of the allies can't equip this.
When ready, enter Gregminster palace, our final dungeon!

Gregminster Palace

Boss: Ain Gide - This is an easy boss, nothing important to add.

This is a straightforward dungeon, but with many forced battles. The forced battles does not respawn, so feel free to leave to heal up. Pick up items along the way:

• Windspun Armor
• Horned Helmet
• Power Ring

You'll know you're near the final boss when you see a save point. This is the last save point in the game.
In the Remaster, you'll create a clear save that can be used to import into Suikoden 2 after you beat the game.

Suikoden I Collectibles Checklist

Final battle 

For the final boss, defeat the head on the left side first, that one heals. If you have Flik and his Lightning rune (or Thunder rune which is even stronger), put Flowing rune on your other casters to unlock Unite Magic attacks (Water + Lightning magic). Flowing rune is also great for healing, or Water if you don't have it - they are both water magic runes. The rest is about using what you have and can to beat it. I advise to remove Lightning rune from Flik and put Thunder rune there.
