== Fight ==
*Buffs will wear upon entry.
*You have 30 minutes to complete this fight. The battle consists of two phases.
*As with all Mission battlefields, experience points are not lost upon death.
*Both fights are now very easy with at least level 99/117 and five trusts. 
Lady Lilith:
*The first fight is against Lady Lilith.
*Possesses enhanced movement speed.
*Lady Lilith is Dark-based, and thus resists Dark-based spells.
*Her attacks are conal Area of Effect, magical, wipe shadows, and inflict a variable level of Knockback.
*Casts -ga enfeebling spells, often using Breakga.
*Uses the following abilities:
**Petaline Tempest: Inflicts AoE Max HP Down, Max MP Down, and Max TP Down.
**Durance Whip: Cone Attack inflicts Bind/Bio/Amnesia 
**Dark Thorn: Grants Lilith a strong Stoneskin (not Invincible) and Blaze Spikes, similar to Cerberus's Magma Hoplon.
**Subjugating Slash: Cone Attack Dispel three buffs.
**Moonlight Veil: AoE high dark elemental damage and Terror (after giving a short message)
***She occasionally uses two of these abilities back-to-back.
*Uses Trance as her 1hr, during which she has access to Fatal Allure, a Charm Gaze Attack. Readying time is fairly long, so it can be reacted to and avoided.
*May cast Comet and/or Meteor at low health for 600~2300 damage.
*Has approximately 9,000 HP.
Lilith Ascendant:
*The second fight is against Lilith Ascendant.
*Lilith Ascendant will not engage until you are in range of her, allowing time to recover.
*Lilith Ascendant is Light-based and resists Light-based spells.
*Lilith Ascendant has higher defense and magic defense than her previous form.
*All of her abilities are named "Dark (Element)", such as Dark Flare, Dark Quake, etc. Each does moderate damage of the appropriate element in a frontal cone, except Dark Tornado and Dark Flood, which are radial.
**She occasionally uses two of these abilities back-to-back.
*Note that these are not magic spells, but rather elemental TP moves. Addle and Paralyze have no effect on these attacks.
*These abilities may have additional effects :
:Dark Tornado inflicts Knockback and Dispels all buffs.
:Dark Quake inflicts Amnesia and Bind which is especially dangerous if Lilith summons a black Gyves near your party.
:Dark Freeze inflicts Terror.
:Dark Burst will reset all Job Ability timers to their maximum recast (including 1hrs).
:Dark Flood inflicts Encumberance and Knockback.
*Can also use Dark Moon after giving a short message. Dark Moon inflicts moderate radial damage and 30-second Weakness.
:*Pets do not receive the Weakness effect.
*Under 50% she may start to use Dark Sun after giving a short message. Dark Sun is approximately 15' Death, similar to Zantetsuken.
:*If timed correctly, this can be stunned, although it can be used more than once.
:*It is possible to resist this attack. Pets may be unaffected. 
*Susceptible to the standard spell Stun, although it will build resistance after a few casts.
*Immune to Silence.
*Can cast Banishga IV, Holy II, Dispelga, Breakga, Slowga, Graviga .
*Summons Elemental Gyves.
*Has approximately 20,000 HP.
Elemental Gyves:
*Can be summoned by either form at any point, but Lilith Ascendant is far more likely to summon them.
*The type she summons is dependent on the Dark (Element) TP move she uses.
*They have fairly low HP and will despawn after 30-60 seconds.
*These do not move, attack, or cast, but create an "aura" effect on anyone close by the Gyve.
*Beware of Lilith Ascendant's TP moves, which can inflict Bind. This is especially dangerous if bound near the black Gyves.
*Effects vary by color::
**Red gives Burn and Attack Down. One appears after Dark Flare.
**Cyan gives Frost and Magic Attack Down One appears after Dark Freeze.
**Yellow gives Rasp and Defense Down. One appears after Dark Quake.
**Green gives Choke and Evasion Down. One appear after Dark Tornado.
**Blue gives Drown and Magic Defense Down. One appears after Dark Flood.
**Purple gives Shock and Accuracy Down. One appears after Dark Burst.
**White gives Dia and Disease. Two appears after Dark Sun.
**Black gives Bio and a 5 second Doom effect. One Appears after Moonlight Veil (during the first form) or two after Dark Moon.
*Magical damage to Lilith Ascendant is reduced by 15% if at even just one Elemental Gyve is present.
