I don't understand why Muzét's title is "Enslaved" when she's the one controlling the Four, but I digress.
On paper Muzét is basically the same as in the previous encounter, Emergency Warp and all, however her movepool is drastically changed: she has lost access to all her physical Artes and spells, aside from Elemental Hymn and Gravity, in exchange for all four Summons and Elemental Shot. She does retain all her normal attacks though.
Her Iron Stance is somewhat problematic and since I want to avoid the same gambling I had with Calamity Stance in the previous battle, I opt to use Retribution to break her Iron Stance. However, Gaius' current stats aren't high enough to achieve it, so Crisis Boost is activated to solve this.
With 3 KO'd party members, Retribution single-handedly breaks Muzét's Iron Stance but that's not the case here since I choose to only have Jude and Milla KO'd, instead I soften Muzét a bit with a Double Demon Fang. The endlag of this Arte, combined with starting on the leftmost position, is perfect because I can always Flash Guard in time if she approaches to use any normal attack, which she's likely to do. I can even use Savage Beckoning right at start of the battle to help time the Demon Fangs. And for the Atk boost, of course!
I used the same combo I did in the previous encounter as a base and it has been improved to be as reliable as possible. Muzét's Emergency Warp chances are reduced to just three: Hydra (if there's no stun), Demonic Wrath and the grounded Pale Ghost. There's also no OTG Limit nonsense to worry about so I'm pretty satisfied with the results.
Now, in case you're wondering why I didn't go for the full Crisis Boost and Ludger is alive, it's so I can use another Link Arte as a finisher to have some variety. Swallow Fury can extend into Star of Oblivion but to prevent the combo from breaking, I use Tiger Blade and press R2 the moment the second hit connects, to send Muzét to the ground at the same time Gaius drops to activate the Link Arte. The "time freeze" from the Link Arte activation also prevents Muzét from air recovering, very handy.
Finally, these are the Crisis Boost stat changes:
- P Atk: 2971 → 3400 → 4512 (Savage Beckoning is active)
- Str: 1084 → 1334
- Dex: 808 → 1019
