Cultists
Break with HHM x4, kill with 1 L Stone + 2 M Stone
Mattias 97686HP
Typically you need 3 Max Vets with Inhibit, 1 3x Vets with Inhibit, and 1 Reflective Veil. Can make do with less if you have Stones. Typically, 1L 1M Stone makes up the damage from 1 HHVx4 without Inhibit.
YOU WILL ALMOST ALWAYS NEED 2 Inhibits for this fight. Good fights are 5/6T, can extend to 9. After 9 he summons adds and you can't win.
Figuring out variations are an exercise left to the reader. I'm just going to put a standard fight up to T5.
There are bonus strats available if you have someone before Mattias T2. Typically you heal someone with Grape M T1. Then Ophilia can afford to Defend T2 instead of Reflective, which gives you a chance to get Inhibit at the start of T3. > Start of T3 Inhibit is the most optimal Inhibit, can do fight with only 1 Inhibit.
