  • Endings
    • There is technically only 1 ending, but there are variations in dialogue depending on if you bring a healer or not.
    • There is no bad ending, and redoing the request "correctly" does not seem to produce any difference in ending.
  • Healers
    • Units
    • You can choose to do a 1st run with or without a healer. It makes no difference.
    • You will receive a Camille for free after completing the 1st run.
    • Having a healer will provide flavor text throughout the request.
  • Recommended Units
    • Healers can help with nullifying incoming status effects in certain mandatory fights. Otherwise this dungeon is quite easy.
  • Summary
    • This place doesn't really have much outstanding gear, and monster spawns are quite distant from each other.
    • Currency gain is quite slow at 20-60 per battle.
    • Request doesn't need to be completed in its entirety to farm, but you will need to partially complete it as floors are locked behind picking up the objectives.
  • Optimal Route
    • It's most recommended to Cursed Wheel in place to reset all the stationary chests and to pick them up. Repeat as needed.
  • Go to the Ruins - Cursed Wheel. In the bottom right-hand corner click the Special Request button.
  • Select Forgotten Craft of the Medicinal Arts from the list and Leap.
Request Reward

  • Fixed at 3* Blue.
  • Basically a Rod of Splendor with some Resistance.

Optional Boss Fight

Boss Details

Fallen Demon

  • Fight starts with the Fallen Demon in the same row as 2 Greater Demons.
  • Fallen Demon has around 75k HP, and very high surety evasion (~180-190). It seems to be immune to CT down debuffs, but can be easily affected by most other status reduction effects. It gets two actions a turn.
  • Fallen Demon can apply poison on all of its physical attacks. Uses Powerful Arm and basic attacks. It can Powerful Arm the backrow.
  • Fallen Demon can also cast damaging magic, which is MADALTO and MACONES. The MADALTO does not do very much damage, but MACONES can hit quite hard.
  • Fallen Demon can also cast various debuffing magic such as BATILGREF, BALAFEOS, KANTIOS, and KATINO. It can also cast Self-Healing (1000 per action).
  • Occasionally, the Fallen Demon can use curses, which are either full team Curse or full team Paralysis.
  • The Greater Demons on the side each have around 15k HP and will cast Self-Healing out of turn after taking around 2/3 of their HP in damage (1000 per action). They can cast support magic such as ABIT, MAHAITOS, MACALDIA, CORTU, and MAKALTU. They can also Powerful Arm.
  • The Greater Demons will be re-summoned after the Fallen Demon takes around 30k damage.
  • It's recommended to have at least over 90 ASPD to outspeed the demons.
  • It's essentially mandatory to have a healer, as the Fallen Demon tends to inflict status effects quite often. It's recommended to put down a Curse incense first and then a Paralysis incense next. If you have some extra turns, you can also put down Confuse or Sleep Incense as well.
  • ABIT level 2 is also very helpful in general for clearing the debuffs, but the debuffs are not very strong.
  • It's recommended to bring a lot of demon resist gear, as the boss and accompanying greater demons can easily hit for over 800 damage with either physical or magic skills.
  • It's recommended to bring a Knight with Knight's Defense for smoother runs. The Fallen Demon can potentially use two attacks back to back. Adjust ASPD accordingly.
