Hidden mechanics#

  • Scaling. Level 18 / 50 / 68 / 80 in the reference placement for journeys 1-4 (fixed per placement, rising with each New Game Plus journey); HP goes from 1038 to 3015 (x2.9) and Physical attack from 368 to 1002 by journey 4. Poise and Resilience never scale; the rule is in How enemy stats are built.
  • Dark Mist levels. Its 3 placements in the Dark Mist scenes (stories 101-105) take their level from your hero, not from the table (Dark Mist enemies scale with your hero). The table level is 11 in journey 1 and 1 in journeys 2-4, so from journey 2 on the level is your Altar Level + 11.
  • Status effects. Its moves can apply: Burn (see Status effects).

See How to read the enemy pages for what the sections mean and How enemy stats are built for the stat rules.
