Rematches against the newly introduced Bravely Second asterisk holders. All four are fought as a duo, the Astrologian missing with Minette fighting alongside her "kitty" instead.

The strats shown here are variations of the Soul Mirror for defence/Meteor Rain for offence strategy, except I now use the more potent buff from Performer's skillset - Hearts on Fire. Since MP cost is never a concern, being able to boost MAtk by 25% in a single action makes it superior to Mystic Boon Blast from Astrologian which costs 2 BP.

In most of the fights, having Physical Reflect up on all four characters is a must because a single tank with the party in critical won't work for one reason or another. Doing so limits my buffing (getting a few early Hearts on Fire in makes bosses take nearly double the normal damage) but is a necessity to keep the party alive.

The last two fights (against Minette/Bismarck and Janne/Nikolai) necessitate the usage of Astrologian's Elemental Barrier Blast, protecting the party from Minette's Stardust and Nikolai's Lightning Lightning/suicidal Sacrifice respectively. Elemental Barrier runs out in 4 turns, compared to Soul Mirror which expires in just 3, so we need to count down the turns carefully not to make a mistake. Soul Mirror is easier to keep track of because the same 3 turns we need to renew the status after is the number of turns needed to wait for another Meteor Meteor Rain casting. Against Minette, Clothespin is needed to protect the party from sleep (on everyone).

I reclass Yew to Thief (for Rob Blind passive to steal two items in a single attempt) and give him Thief Bracers to steal two Bloody Shields from Geist. This is likely not necessary for anything, as we don't care about the partial elemental protection that the rare Hero's Shields grant to its wielders, but I figured I might as well steal the best shield in the game anyway.
