Finally a battle where losing the judge and the clan privilege is neither required nor advisable.

I don't really know what to say about Neukhia, this part of the mission is very easy, especially after Illua with her Dimensional Rift. The boss is capable of inflicting Confuse, dealing MP damage (no threat to our party, at least at this point), lowering defence and resistance and dealing moderate HP damage in a very broad range (similar to summons once again, I think). Neukhia's enemies also excel in statuses and one of the ahrimen has Unscarred meaning it can deal very crushing blows unless you hurt it first (I just killed him, which spawned a Malboro).

You may notice me acting seemingly irrationally, ending turns by placing characters with their backs to the enemy. This is because at least two Ahriman attacks have 100% chance of success when facing the target's front and 0% in any other case. However, Luso, whom I had a different personal strategy in mind for, stood exactly like that and got confused. It's better to just hit him and provoke a counter, really, the boy can make the battle unnecessarily complicated for us with attacks like Self-destruct, Sandstorm and Bad Breath all in his skillset.

Physical attacks seem to be the best way of hitting the boss, compare Screech to normal attack.
