Trial No. 008

__TOC__
==Overview==
Sealed God Lucius, similar to, but not the same as Lucius in Quest Mode, is a Mock Unit located in the Summoners' Research Lab in Imperial City Randall. It is only obtainable through the completion of Trial No. 008, which is unlocked after the completion of Trial No. 007.
==Preparation==
You may use up to 3 squads and 1 item set for this battle. Each of the squads must have unique units in them and you are allowed up to double your total cost. You can select a different friend from your entire friends list for each squad that you can bring in. There is no cooldown when using a friend to fight Lucius. Your items do not get replenished when a team dies, so bring as many healing items, elemental stones, and status cure items for paralysis/weakness as you can for this fight.
