In thisDeath End Re;Quest Chapter 5 Guide, I’ll be going over the path to clear the fifth area of the game and it’s boss. Death End Re;Quest is a unique RPG game that merges the typical JRPG and allows players to convert it into a fighting game, shooter, or even a slot game. There are other subtle quirks that the game possesses that will be simple to execute but difficult to master.

Death End Re;Quest Chapter 5 Guide

In Chapter 5 ofDeath End Re;Questplayers will travel to the Sanatheus Temple which includes the Shrine of Return, Corridor of Wisdom and Dwelling of Courage. They will face a number of monsters before meeting Brochiproti and boss Araful. Follow this guide to help navigate your way through this chapter!

Sanatheus Temple (Shrine of Return)

Players will start at the beginning doors of the Sanatheus Temple and cannot leave so it will be best to head to the camp site first. Rest, save and buy upgrades if needed. Leave the tent area by going straight; this will lead players to 1Enolef’s Ether. Head to the far North location to obtain 1ZPD-101(175 SP, 65 ATK, 50 DEF). From this room, head out and continue straight to enter a room with a chest containing 1Atlan Carus(200 HP, 155 ATK, 34 AGI). Proceed back to the room where you picked up the ZPD-101, but make a left just before the room. Players will find a glitchy purple wall. Time to head to the real world!

After progressing the main story in the real world, go back to World’s Odyssey to find the purple wall missing allowing passage for players. Proceed down this path to reach Sanatheus Temple (Corridor of Wisdom)

Monsters in Sanatheus Temple (Shrine of Return)

Sanatheus Temple (Corridor of Wisdom)

Dash along the lone path to reach a room leading to 3 different rooms. Start by heading to the right so we may circle around the map collecting all the loot. There will be aSanatheus Jewelin the first room to the right. From there take the closest path near the chest to reach another room with aEnolef’s Etherinside a chest. Continue moving along that path to find a chest with aSanatheus Ironware. Walk towards the North part of the map to find 1Sanatheus Stonein a chest, as well as20,000 Eniin another chest found in a room to the left. There will be3 Code Salve 222.0in a lone chest in the room to the left of the previous chests.

Pick up thePage of an Ancient Bookin the North-most room with the!symbol. Turn around and use Lucil’s Specto Search, environment ability to create a passageway to obtain theModern Tact(32 ATK, 100 MAT, 124 MDF, 50 AGI). Now make your way to the final!symbol on the map. This will result in a fight against Brochiproti.

Death End Re;Quest Chapter 5 Guide

Brochiproti

Players will face a Brochiproti that is 1% off from being glitched out. Avoid hitting him over bug tiles to avoid him recovering all his health, and dealing more damage as he already hits pretty hard already. He is of ★ Stars Type so use Al and Lucil to deal heavy damage. Although, be careful as Lucil is quite fragile due to her low Health Pool. 2 turns of Sol Spear from Al will eliminate this foe. Defeating him grants players1,800 Exp,840 Eniand theGoddess Key. Enter the room to obtain theKertza Wing Bow(99 ATK, 45 AGI)

Head back to Sanatheus Temple (Shrine of Return) to find another glitchy purple wall center right of the map. At this time swap back to the real world and watch the new developments of the main story progress until its time to be back in World’s Odyssey. Continue on this path until you reach the room that has 2 paths to take: 1 on each side. Take the left path to find 1Splatterbuss(125 SP, 110 ATK). Take the other path to arrive in the final section of this area.

Sanatheus Temple (Dwelling of Courage)

In this section players must interact with all the!to gain the ability to open the final doors. Start by dashing to the large room with the locked doors. Exit to the right and follow the path to hit the first!. Players will fight 2 Brochiproti instead of just 1, as before the same tactics will apply. Focus on one to avoid having both team up against you. Defeating them grants players3,600 Exp,1,680 Eniand theGoddess Key. Trot along this path to find another page from an ancient book which will trigger some cutscenes. Proceed along this path to find 1 Enolef’s Ether and another fight with 3 Brochiproti. Follow the same tactics as the first 2 fights to come out on top. Defeating them grants players4,500 Exp,357 Eni, 2 Divine Elixirand theGoddess Key. Obtain 30,000 Eni from the top right chest and its time to be Arata again!

Pick up theHigh Tact(28 ATK, 76 MAT, 78 MDF, 45 AGI) then obtain the Red Key. It’s now time to unlock the 2 doors. Behind the second door will be a!and another fight against a horde of Brochiproti. This time there will be 4 of them. Those 4 will split into teams of 2 and attack Lily (or your center girl), while the other 2 will heal themselves. Use Al’s Sol Lance if the enemies aren’t lined up to destroy. Have your second girl revive your fallen teammate then focus killing the last 2 with Al.  Defeating them grants players6,000 Exp,476 Eni,and2 Divine Elixir. Pick up theSteady Night Blade(160 ATK, 110 DEF, 60 MAT, 20 MDF) in the chest before heading back to the save point at the camp.

Death End Re;Quest Chapter 5 Guide

Once your party is fully healed and you have saved, approach the very first locked door that will be able to be opened at this point. Walk until you reach the teleporter and interact with it. It’s time to fight Araful.

Boss: Araful

Araful will be an extremely powerful Entoma Queen on Hard Mode since she is capable of a large AOE attack that deals heavy damage, while poisoning party members. This fight can be quite difficult to win if you are like me and avoid grinding levels. My party consisted of Shina (Lv 42), Lily (Lv 41), and Al (Lv 43) and all but Lily was 1 shotted. You definitely want to avoid using ☀ Sun Type girls like Al and Lucil. The best team to run against Araful is Shina, Lily, and Celica. Lily and Celica will have the type advantage while Shina will have access to ★ Stars type skills to also exploit Araful’s ★ Stars type weakness. My team levels consist of Shina (Lv 43), Lily (Lv 43), and Celica (Lv 52).

The best start in this fight is to have Araful use bite on Shina and kill her. This allows Celica to use: Hone Power, Aster League, Aster Palza to deal heavy damage to Araful. Have Lily use: Resurrect, Icarus Dash, Vizstar Sauza to revive Shina, boost everyone’s speed and hopefully poison Araful. Using Icarus Speed will allow the girls to take an extra turn before Araful can attack once more. Exhaust the rest of Celica’s SP using triple Asteria and have Shina use triple Stareig. Use up Lily’s last SP using her star type offensive skills.

Death End Re;Quest Chapter 5 Guide

Hopefully on the Entoma Queen’s turn, she will target Lily and kill her. Have Celica will use her triple attack to get rid of some bug tiles. This allows Shina to revive Lily on her turn while using Stareig. If Celica gets another turn she will kill Araful with a final triple attack. If you want to know more about each characters strengths and weakness check out ourDeath End Re;Quest All Girls Guide.

Defeating Araful grants players38,400 Exp,840 Eni, and1 Ultra Ogre Brew.
