Party members having trouble hitting the Apostle can turn to area-of-effect attacks, such as spells or {{SmRarityItem|Smokepowder Bomb}}s. The Apostle's immobility allows certain spells such {{SAI|Wall of Fire}} to continuously damage it each turn. | Party members having trouble hitting the Apostle can turn to area-of-effect attacks, such as spells or {{SmRarityItem|Smokepowder Bomb}}s.

Despite the large size of the Apostle, it's still susceptible to most regular conditions, such as {{Cond|Blinded}}, and can be made {{Cond|wet}} using {{SAI|Create Water}}. Likewise, although it has a difficult-to-overcome saving throw versus many more severe conditions, casting {{SAI|Darkness}} on it will blind the Apostle thereby helping any melee fighters prevent some of the damage and combos, in particular removing its ability to opportunity strike. | Despite the large size of the Apostle, it's still susceptible to most regular conditions, such as {{Cond|Blinded}}, and can be made {{Cond|wet}} using {{SAI|Create Water}}.

The Apostle's [[Reaper's Scythe]] does respectable damage and also knocks party members back, potentially off of the platform itself. Positioning all melee units with the spikes of the arena at their back will prevent them from being knocked off the platform this way. Alternatively, the Apostle can be {{Cond|disarmed}} of its scythe, removing the threat entirely. | The Apostle's [[Reaper's Scythe]] does respectable damage and also knocks party members back, potentially off of the platform itself.
