Use[]

Twilight Requiem is a potentially strong but unreliable Dance option. Its two main abilities, Cave In and Snare, can both deal heavy damage to enemies, but are ineffective against those immune to death. Its rarer abilities both deal strong damage, but are elemental, meaning they can be used to target weaknesses but that enemies can also resist them. Because these are the rarest abilities, it should typically not be part of the decision behind using this Dance.

As with Dance in general, using Twilight Requiem will make Mog uncontrollable for the rest of the fight. As such, players should be certain that they will only want Mog for these abilities for the rest of the battle, and should be prepared for a degree of randomness. Because Dance's damage is magic based, if players wish to use Mog this way, leveling him up with magicite that boosts his Magic stat is ideal; alternatively, players may prefer to use Dragoon Boots and rely on his physical damage from spears, meaning Strength should be used instead.
