Bestiary Entry
Genus: Boss Classification: Guardian Statue

Page 1: Observations
Being a guardian statue of Giruvegan, set before the way stone outside the city, preventing intrusion.

When provoked, the Daedalus swings its mighty sword, laying waste to any foolish enough to approach.

To look upon its headless form is to know despair, and some conjecture that the mere sight of it has stopped many would-be interlopers from passing into the city.

Battle
Dispel Haste, then cast Haste on frontline fighters to get an advantage over him. Levels higher than 30 are recommended. A good tactic is to have one character Berserked to deal massive damage. When Daedalus is low on HP, it will start to join combos, so don't hesitate to use Quickenings, because its attacks chained are rather strong.
