    Trusts need higher magic evasion

    If you go into Dynamis D and a Ninja monster uses their 2 hour ability, it almost always one shots all trusts.

    This is a fundamental failing of the upgrade system, there needs to be higher magic evasion. If nothing else add another category for this to level up. Especially for Monberaux.

    The Squadron Shadowstalker uses Mijin Gakure.

    ArkEV takes 2512 points of damage (one shot)
    Ulmia takes 2828 points of damage (one shot)
    Monberaux takes 3265 points of damage (one shot)
    Ygnas takes 353 points of damage

    The Squadron Shadowstalker defeats ArkEV.
    The Squadron Shadowstalker defeats Ulmia.
    The Squadron Shadowstalker defeats Monberaux.
    Ulmia max hp 1855
    ArkEV max hp 2410
    Monberaux max hp 2092

    What they need is magic evasion higher than zero. Mdef is fine but that is not the issue.

    ygnas and yoran don't have much issue cause they have actual magic evasion

    Yeah. I've seen this in HTMBCMs. one of the Ark Angels deleted all my Trust even with (almost) all the stats from alter ego points.

    The high-level mission battlefields can be hilarious due to this issue, when you just approach/engagge the enemy on Very Difficult for example, and the enemy immediately uses an area attack to take some of the creeper egos out (befcause 'Regain', I suppose).

    Some examples from recent times I remember is Promathia and Omega.

    At least Promathia was at a time with fully buffed on INT and HP on the ego side, I /think/, and probably only 1 of them went out. Monberaux? Still won the battle though (solo with the rest of 'gos). That'll show 'em!

    Of course this was with no Shell or Protect or anything else on anyone yet either, so it is to some extent a problem of that.

    Also perhaps Very Difficults are not designed to be done solo with faith/trust magic. Just may bee.

    Indeed, I wish they'd buff them up on ths front. It is quite a problem with Sortie bosses too, though to some extent only because they stand too close to them (or the bosses hit too wide (<cough> Leshonn <cough>)).

    ...or so the legend says.

    Well that's the thing. I did the ark angel battle on Very Easy (because I didn't care about the drops, I just wanted it done as fast as possible for the RoE Objective)- and Mijin Gakure still oneshotted the trusts, while doing almost no damage to me.

    Fer sure, the Gakure can be so too powerful.

    Do you remember at all at what health the Angel was at, at the time?
