Walkthrough: Sonny 2, Zone 3 (Biological/Heroic)

Zone 3 is a lot easier than the first two. If you managed to come this far, this should be a cakewalk for you.
  1. Spectre:
    A lot of Spectres will be encountered in zone 3. They pack some punch, but are harmless when alone.
  2. ZPCI Elite (2x):
    Use crystallize to keep one of them out of the fight at all times, then they will be no match for you.
  3. Spectre (2x):
    Funny enough, I had to leave my computer right after the fight started. When I returned, all I saw was the victory screen. Neat.
    If you do not share this experience, try crystallizing one of the two and focus on the other.
  4. Antagonist (2x), Beast:
    I don't regard this as a difficult encounter. Keep the Beast out of the fight with crystallize, and finish the other two one by one.
  5. The Hobo:
    He does not do a lot of direct damage, but instead he spams you with damage-over-time spells, which will eat away at you increasingly. The key to winning is to throw all you have at him. Still, a pretty lame fight, even if you do not have a build capable of dealing much damage.
  6. The Real Hobo:
    Funny, he does not seem capable of hurting you much, but instead has a number of effects which damage him. So, enjoy the show! :)
  7. The Host:
    Be wary of his Dark Rage spell! If he hits you while having it you're dead! So, whenever he casts Dark Rage, stun oder crystallize him. Apart from that, he does nothing special, except for a rather powerful, but occasional attack.
  8. Spectre (3x):
    Use Crystallize constantly to keep out one or preferably two of them. Use Reform if somebody requires healing and Break when available. With this strategy, the fight is piece of cake.
  9. Clemons the Deceiver:
    The unknown buff that he frequently uses in the beginning is similar to Subversion, so avoid healing the affected team members. Instead, crystallize Clemons, wait for the condition to go away and then apply healing.
    After a while (as soon as the "The Nightmare is over" buff expires on him) he will cast full heal and then switch to his true form, having a buff on him which takes double damage. The fight will be over soon, I found it quite easy.
    To make it even quicker, you can watch out for the Nightmare buff to expire on him and cast subversion in the right moment, killing him instantly.
You have finished zone 3, move on to zone 4!
