At long, long last, the King of Batheo is defeated!
Phaethon: http://b23.clapalong.com/?fid=N201302011182873
Roughly 800 tries (give or take up to a 100) over 3 months. For the last month and a half, I've been in a bi-daily routine: Every Spring and Autumn, push up to M50 and then spam 40-45 divs on Phaethon, every Summer and Winter replenish divs. Geras was triple washed to +84/+80/+84 (after performing the morale suppression test on this NPC, I know this was enough spirit to get the +50 advantage on both non-mage units). Ironically, not counting the E token I got earlier in the day while at M48, I got this win on my first try today.
Equipment was perfect: Kylin, Zeus' Cloak, Laeveteinn, Hero's Pride, Greetings at Doorsteps, Spartan Charms all enhanced to (G7)5. It's impossible for a non-VIP who hasn't finished maps to improve on any of that.
I know that later NPCs will have more raw power. But none that I have encountered so far have a worse formation. Two very heavily protected mages, guarded by an insanely powerful and accurate thunder mage. What could be worse?
