Battle
While on the pendulum, Ghirofelgo is capable of attacking the whole party at once for decent damage. Every time he is attacked there is 1/8 chance that he will fall off and be unable to attack for his next three turns, after which he will climb back up the pendulum. He can be defeated instantly by using the Enemy Skill Laser or the spell Demi2.
