Overview

What is Madam's Mansion?

Madam's Mansion is a long, involved side quest that becomes available during season 2 content. This quest will have you working with Madam and her organization to find the fragments of a stone slate (石板の欠片) that are then used to unlock the ruins below Madam's Mansion, which is a multi-floor dungeon that contains some nice items and difficult, trial level, bosses. These slate fragments can be found all over the world of Paladia in exploration maps and as quest rewards. Completing these ruins and beating the bosses inside will reward you with colored jewels.

Why should I even care about Madam's Mansion?

When Madam's Mansion was first announced the developers likened it to the Raven's Quest from season 1. Because of this we can assume that there will be some sort of reward at the end that is worth the effort. In addition, the dungeons unlocked for through the quest line contain some pretty nice items, including a recipe for a hat that provides 5% dodge.

Boss: Bennu

During you first time here, Madam will beat the boss for you; however, to obtain the colored jewel you must return and beat Bennu yourself.

• YouTube /u/Rozaliin

Overview

Bennu deals a lot of damage, has a lot of HP, and summons 3 different and very annoying adds throughout the fight. That being said, you can manipulate almost all of the fight. Bennu acts on a 4 turn rotation, adding abilities to various turns in this rotation as it's HP decreases (see rotation below).

Of the 3 adds that Bennu will summon, there are two different groups: those it will summon throughout the fight and those summoned at specific thresholds. The threshold adds are Bombs. At 80% it will summon 1, and at 60% and 20% it will summon 2. These only have 13 HP each, but also only take 1 damage per hit regardless of the attack used. If left alone, they will explode on the second turn they are alive; they will also explode the turn they take damage if not defeated. Because of this, you need to use multi-hit attacks that deal at least 13 hits to take them out.

The other adds that Bennu summons are レッドピーク and フレイムファウル; these are summoned randomly throughout the fight. Left alone, they are relatively harmless, but there is a catch. Depending on the actions you take, these adds will counterattack with very powerful attacks. If you use an ability, レッドピーク will counter with a ST physical attack; if you use magic, フレイムファウル will counter with an AoE fire magic attack. The group you use will largely depend on which of these attacks you want to deal with, and which one you don't. For example, you could opt to not use any abilities, and then make sure your party has 100% resistance to fire. This would make フレイムファウル a non-issue. As for any レッドピーク, you would take them out immediately. Eventually, Bennu would summon so many フレイムファウル that no more adds could be summoned.

Boss: Undine

During you first time here, Madam will beat the boss for you; however, to obtain the colored jewel you must return and beat Undine yourself.

• YouTube /u/Rozaliin

Overview

Undine's will use many different AoE and ST magic and physical attacks against you but almost all of them are water. Because of this, if you raise your party's water resistance you can greatly mitigate the majority of the damage you will take this fight (Undine will also lower your party's water resistance by up to 100% so plan accordingly). Due note that when under 50% Undine will start to use dark magic attacks as well.

Starting on turn 2, Undine will apply a buff to itself that nullifies physical damage. This can be cleared by dealing ice damage to the boss two turns in a row. Doing this is obviously important if you want to use physical damage but it's also important for the main gimmick of this encounter.

Being a water based boss, Undine is predictably weak to lightning damage. However, it will counterattack any lightning damage you deal to it. What it counters with and how strong the attack is is determined by what type of lightning damage you deal. You could also increase your party's lightning resistance and ignore this, but it's much more efficient to use this against the boss. These counterattacks are all magic attacks, and can be reflected; they also happen to be the first action Undine will take making this a great strategy. When Undine uses 反雷細胞生成, use an ice element magic attack. Then, on the following turn, use a physical and magic lightning attack and use Carbuncle (or Marie's LB). The boss will literally kill itself in a few rotations of this.

Undine's Counter Table

Beating Undine will reward you with the 蒼宝玉 (Azure Jewel).
