Walkthrough

  • After the initial cutscene, click the Mahogany Door in the Sacrificial Chamber again for the option to the enter the Project: Shantottofication battlefield.
    • The tablet Key Items are consumed upon entry and each one grants a buff. Possessing a full set will grant a +150 resistance to Element: Earth Earth, Element: Water Water, Element: Wind Wind, Element: Fire Fire, Element: Ice Ice and Element: Thunder Thunder magic, +150 to STR, VIT, DEX, AGI, MND, INT and CHR, a 3x multiplier to HP and MP, and a special Reraise that does not confer Weakness upon use.
    • The tablets are not necessary to begin the fight, and it is soloable by most Jobs in 119 gear with Trusts.
  • The fight is against D. Shantotto and Shantotto:
    • D. Shantotto casts high level magic spells and uses Scythe weaponskills, including Salvation Scythe, which does AoE damage and inflicts poison and paralysis.
    • Shantotto casts high level magic spells and uses staff weaponskills, including Divine Malison, which does AoE damage and inflicts stun, slow, silence and plague.
  • Once one or the other reaches 50% HP, she will enter a kind of rage mode where she calls the other over to perform skillchains using their signature weaponskills on the current target.
    • They cannot be drawn apart at this time.
    • While in this mode, the "raged" Shantotto cannot be killed. Damage can still be done to her, but she will not drop below 1% HP until it ends.
    • If the party wipes after the rage mode is triggered, it will not be repeated if a second attempt is made without exiting the battlefield.
  • Successful completion of the fight will award a Key Item Tonberry key, which can be redeemed at the Treasure Coffer in Tenshodo Headquarters in Lower Jeuno.
