Adrastea Summary
Adrastea is the Lvl. 16 Machina that chase after Rain and his party after they try to escape Mobliz Shipyard. When its stagger gauge is relatively low, it will prepare to cast a special move that hits hard.
With tons of status ailment immunities, the best course of action is to focus on dealing damage. Even with its special trait, dealing stagger damage, it is also recommended as long as you do manage to stagger it before it casts its special move.

How to Beat Adrastea
[1] Use Protectga for the majority of the fight, and Arcane Guard when it is about to use Wave Cannon.
Most of Adrastea's attacks are physical attacks, so using Protect or Protectga is very useful. When you are about to get hit by its Wave Cannon, the strongest defense to it is Arcane Guard because it reduces all damage from magic attacks by 50%.
You can pair Arcane Guard with Shellga for extra magic defense.
[2] Equip Cloud or Ramuh.
Cloud's Resonance ability Ascension is a powerful physical damage lightning attack that can deal over half of Adrastea's HP when it is a critical hit. There is a huge chance for this to happen, as this ability has a high critical hit rate.
Even if the attack does not turn into a critical hit, the Lightning affinity of the attack deals extra damage to Adrastea.
Ramuh is a Lightning-affinity Esper that fits perfectly against Adrastea. He will deal extra damage any time he attacks Adrastea since all of his attacks are Lightning element.
[3] Equip Physical Counter and use Multi-Cover.
Most of Adrastea attacks are Physical so using Physical Counter lets you deal extra damage any time it attacks the Physical Counter user. Using Multi-Cover also guarantees that the Physical Counter is activated if Adrastea targets other party members.
Adrastea also has two attacks that are multi-target and multi-hit: Flash Bomb and Machine Gun. With both Multi-Cover and Physical Counter, this guarantees that the Physical Counter is activated multiple times for every hit the user tanks from Adrastea.
We recommend equipping this to Rain or Lasswell.
