Diamond Dust deals incredible Ice damage onto all enemies when used. This can take out several enemies out at once, especially those that are weak to Ice.
Tips for Using Shiva
- Delay attacks: One of Shiva's moves has a 50% of causing Blindness to all enemies. This will severely sharpen their hit accuracy and would most likely make their attacks miss.
- Hit hard with Ice: Shiva's attacks are primarily magical Ice attacks that can be used on a lot of enemies at once.
How to Get Shiva
[1] Talk to the NPC at Sunioo.
Talk to the NPC at Sunioo's inn. They will give you Shiva's location.
[2] Find Shiva's Dwelling.
Approach the icy whirlwind that denotes where Shiva is.
[3] Defeat Shiva.
Shiva resists Water and absorbs Ice so make sure to avoid using any Water or Ice-based attacks against them. It's good if you have an abundant number of Fire attack users or items that can inflict Fire attacks to throw at them.
They can also potentially Blind your party, so make sure to have the appropriate healing items or party members with Esuna.
