Challenge Quest Client Reward Task
Save the Old Man Ex-hunter Kyuzou 10000 macca Protect an old man who is targeted by hunters

Get this Quest from Shibuya’s Hunter Association after completing Kill the Black Samurai / Kill Yuriko quests. Accept the quest to make it active then head to the Underground District B to the northeast. You’ll find a vent there that leads to Miyashita Park.

Once there, approach the other end of the overpass to find the old man. Talk to him and while the geezer is telling you a story, a hunter will attack you.

LV47 Hunter Man (Nu: Dark, Light)

LV45 Manticore (Wk: Fire, Nu: Elec)

LV47 Mushussu (Wk: Force, Rp: Elec)

LV40 Enku (Wk: Force, Ice, Dr: fire, Nu: Dark)

Guide Image

All the Demons in this battle are weak against Force. Use that to gain extra press turns and deal extra damage. Avoid using fire, elec and dark attacks. You can use light (instant-death) attacks to take out all three demons and concentrate your attacks to the hunter man. You can also use Tetrakarn to deal high damage to the Hunter Man since he’s fond of using Javelin Rain.

After defeating the first batch of enemies, a hunter woman will show up. You’ll have to fight her and her Demons.

LV47 Hunter Woman (Nu: Dark, Light)

LV45 Valkyrie (Wk: Elec, Rs: Phys, Dark, Light)

LV46 Tlaltecuhtli (Wk: Ice, Rs: Phys, Dr: Elec)

LV43 Kin-ki (Wk: Force, Rs: Phys, Dark, Dr: Elec)

This group’s composition is a bit different so you’ll have to be careful when using elec, phys and dark attacks. Like before, you can use high-level light attacks (Judgment Light, Mahamaon) to take out three Demons and leave the hunter woman to you. Her HP correspond her level so expect her to go down after a while. Debuff her and use tetrakarn on your team to reflect her phys attacks.

After defeating the hunters, the real enemy will appear.

Guide Image

LV50 Thor

Weak: Force

Drain: Elec

Null: Fire

Guide Image

This demon has a heavy phys and elec attack that can deal high damage to a target. It also has a high chance of countering phys or gun attacks. Its only all-party skill is Megidola that deals medium almighty damage to your team. Attack it using Force Skills or if you don’t have any, use Ice skills. You can’t use Elec or Fire and your phys or gun attacks can be countered.

Don’t bother using Tetrakarn since this will prompt him to use Megidola frequently instead. Thor’s HP is around 3000 so expect this battle to drag on. Buff, debuff and exploit his weakness to victory.

After defeating Thor, the old man will reveal his true identity. The Quest will be complete afterward. You should also be able to fuse Thor and Odin in the Cathedral of Shadows.
