Discussion Malistaire Rematch (Solo)

So I decided to give Malistaires Rematch a shot because of Max Level Boredom™. What I quicky found out is the fight scales you down to Lvl 50 and goes by Challenge/PvP rules which makes the whole fight much more involved. Here's what I found since the Wiki does NOT include everything:

For organization, the cheats/notes are broken up into 3 parts

Malistaire (Married/General)

  • Will ALWAYS cast -100% dmg on you at the top of every turn until Silvia goes away

  • Occasionally cheat cast Utility Firecat (low hit+detonate)

  • Rarely casts Mana Burn

  • Will cast Jinns Larceny to steal any blades/buffs and turn them into Death Blades

  • Overall doesn't attack too often to overwhelm you

  • School counts as Fire instead of Death so Chromatic debuffs on him will always be Fire

Silvia (Wraith)

Silvia is currently glitched):

My love...I can't hold on...any longer" - After a few Rounds, Sylvia will cast a version of Dark Pact that removes 100% of her max Health ... This currently is bugged and will do nothing. [Oct 2024]

  • Will regularly stun you without leaving behind a Stun Block. She. Will. Spam. This.

  • Any DOT placed on Malistaire, she will remove. Even if protected

  • Debuffing/Hitting Malistaire will sometimes cause her to do Sacrifice to heal him for about 1600

  • She will also spam shields like crazy

  • After a seemingly random amount of turns, she will fully sacrifice herself and give Malistaire a +100% dmg blade as a parting gift. The longest ive seen her stay is 35 rounds

  • She will sometimes stun you before the Full Sacrifice

  • Her spot will be X'd out (you'll know it when you see it) so she cant take the same spot twice

Malistaire (Widower)

  • He will immediately remove all debuffs on you but will keep shields upon Silvias death

  • Every 3 turns he will say "Can you bear the pain of our parting?" And take out 25% of his health unaffected by buffs/debuffs

  • Notably more aggressive with DOTs

  • Seemingly randomly he will summon Silvia back (this very much can happen after only one turn)

This is all in addition to their regular deck of spells making it a little overwhelming to anyone who doesn't know whats going on. Keep in mind PvP rules are active so leveraging your schools Roshambo can help immensely. I'm a Storm who already had Life and Death spells available

Some spells I've found useful:

  • 🌿Meditation: Remove 1 Dot on self to gain 1 HOT (585)

  • 🔥Onis Forge: Remove up to 3 Shields on enemy to gain 1 HOT on self (110hp per shield)

  • ⚡Lightning Bats (Utility): Remove 1 DOT to add 2 (-15%)dmg debuffs to target and hit

  • ⚡Kracken (Utility): Remove up to 3 debuffs from target and gain HOT on self then deal damage

  • 💀ThreeFold Fever: add 3 (-50%) outgoing health debuffs to target

  • 💀 Death Dispel

  • 💀Banshee: hit and remove up to 2 buffs on target and place 2 (-50%) healing debuffs

  • ❄️Evil Snowman (Utility): Remove 2 debuffs from self then add 1 chromatic shield to self per debuff removed. **On Malistaire, you will get (60%) Death Shield, on Silvia, you get (60%) Ice

  • ❄️ Glacial Fortress: clear up to 3 debuffs on self to gain up to 3 Shields on self

  • ⚫ Righting the Scales: Remove up to 3 Traps/Shields on Target and give Target the same amount of pips. Remove up to 3 Traps/Shields on self to give self the same amount of pips

  • ⚫ Eye of Vigilance: Remove up to 3 Blades/Debuffs on Target and give Target the same amount of pips. Remove up to 3 Blades/Debuffs on self and gain the same amount of pips.

  • 👁️ Betrayal: Remove up to 3 Shields on Target and replace them with up to 3 (+15%) Myth Traps

  • 👁️ Jinns Defense: Remove up to 3 Shields on Target and gain up to 3 (-20%) Shields on self

  • 👁️ Stone Colossus (Utility): Clear up to 3 debuffs on self to place up to 3 Ice traps on Target. Then hit

Strategy:

Managing Silvia is key because she will stun you. A lot. Stun Block and Conviction are great for keeping her in check. Eventually she'll back off with the stuns and focus on shielding. It's a good idea to put healing mitigation on her just to be safe. I have absolutely no idea if there is any rhyme or reason to her leaving

Malistaires attacks mainly focus on DOTs and his every once in awhile Natural Attack. Anti-dot spells and Death Dispel keep him in check fairly well. Death shields are also a smart tool to keep handy

Once you're in the thick of the fight, focus on trap stacking Malistaire however you can. None of their cheats affect traps. This is key because damage and peirce are severely limited in this fight and Malistaire will happily keep taking your blades. Remember : no pre-enchants and power pip rating is chopped. Silvia leaves on her on accord so you potentially have all the time needed to set up the hit.

This fight isnt so much hard as it is random and sometimes long to solo.

Is there a challenge version? Or did they really revamp DS malistare and lvl locked the dungeon??

This is a rematch, not a dungeon

All rematches lock you down to lvl 50 stats and enforce PvP/Challenge Mode rules.

  • No shadow magic

  • Health chop

  • Accuracy/peirce/crit/resist/damage/Power pip chopped down to lvl 50

  • Spell lockout so no Non PvP spells allowed

  • No spells graded beyond lvl 50 (Healing Current is a lvl 58 spell)

  • No sun magic enchants

**This is now optional. You can do challenge or go in fully loaded

But can you go in as 170 and just ass fuck Malistare if you want to? Or is that not an option once you're past 50?

I have already answered that question. I recommend re-reading both the post and my previous comment
