How to unlock the Some like it fat achievement in Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom - Definitive Guide
So i worked out that the two guys Meos summons seem to be weak to Earth Shi, unless i got lucky with crits i was doing quite alot with the basic earth projectile and cleared them super fast. Just make sure to keep your distance and roll out of the black slowing webs they throw everywhere.
Now the cheese part.
Instead of using Chado or any of the others and using constant Hyper combos, what i did was switch to Kayenne and used his combo Padoostea. What this does is when it connects it switches the enemy you're fighting with another enemy. And because it recognizes Meos and Arachna as being two seperate enemies, it switches straight to the spider phase without having to damage him at all.
I found this purely by accident when i was trying to take him down and then i replicated it each time i beat the parry phase and it worked everytime. I still took a fair amount of damage but my fighting time must've been really quick as i got the S. Good luck!
Its easy, just do not fail at the second phase.
I took out the minions really quick with Chados the combo that makes a sphere around him. After they were dealt with, Meos shows up. I spammed magic until he was taken out to start his 3rd phase as Spider Meos. (My name for him)
You parry his magic back at him and after he his damaged, the puppet Meos will drop down. You want to basic combo him so you can build up your tension bars for parrying the Big Bad Boss Magic and this will repeat 4 times until he is taken out.
If done quickly, not a lot of damage done to you and NOBODY DIES, easy S rank. Hope this helps.
There are three chances to get this achievement in the game. The "legends" are Meos, Mother, and the final boss of the game (Kaorys or Irys).
Mother is by far the easiest to get this on. I fought her twice. The first time took six minutes, I had taken over 21k damage, and Chado died (I am ashamed to say I couldn't figure out the bell-ringing mechanic at first). I still got an A for that effort. The next attempt (since I now knew what to do), I did it in less than two minutes, under 10k damage taken, and no deaths. This got me an S rank, though I think I did way better than needed.
In Mother's first phase, make sure nobody touches a ghost without Father's light around them or they won't be available the rest of the fight. In phase two, use your hyper attacks over and over. Switch between Chado and Askel, and don't be afraid to use healing items or even items that replenish your hyper meter. In the third phase, you need to grab Father's light and then punch the bells. Once you punch all four, she'll drop to the ground. I used Askel and just two basic 5-hit melee combos killed her for the S rank.
You don't even have to try very hard to get a rank. It is important to save before the boss just in case, and if the rank is lower, go straight to the menu and load the save.
First, preparation. Bring a stronger medicine and soup with you. Soup is a must.
- First stage. Quite simple - pick up the light from the Father and hit the nearest ghost. If there is a second one nearby, hit him too. Don't try to beat three or more - they kill with a touch if you don't have light. And the light is given for 5 seconds. As soon as it goes out, run back and wait for the Father to reappear. And so on until the ghosts end. It’s better to follow Chado.
- Second phase. The main fight. The place where you need to do the main actions is to use all available techniques on the Mother. To obtain rank S you need 6 or more of them, but you will have the opportunity to finish off the rest in the next stage. So here make 4 available for Chado and finish her off with the sphere ( - - ). You'll want to try to make as many combos as possible, so try activating the orb immediately after parrying. And it is important not to drag out the stage for too long - time also plays a role. if you run out of Tension, eat soup. If life is less than half - treatment. Forget about magic. Not up to her.
- Third stage. This is where you need to switch. I took Cayenne, but any will do. We take the light in the center from the Father and, dodging his hands, get to 4 bells and ring them. The light again does not last long. We rang the bell - back to the center for the light. As soon as the bells have ended, perform available techniques for the selected hero on the lying carcass.
