Bravely Default 2<\/strong><\/em> is now out and providing players with both joy and frustration. Its review scores reflect this<\/a>, with mostly positive scores that fail to reach exceptional status due to a few frustrating elements.<\/p>\n

One of the frustrating elements in\u00a0Bravely Default 2<\/em><\/a> is actually encountered early on in the form of a roadblock boss: Bernard. The holder of the Thief asterisk, Bernard is not exactly sneaky, and hits more like a truck than a thief. In both the demo and the game proper, Bernard has proven quite frustrating, so here’s a quick guide to making the fight easier and more doable.<\/p>\n

Anyone familiar with the Job List<\/a>, even from the previous\u00a0Bravely Default<\/em> games, knows that Thieves can steal more than just belongings. They can actually steal stats, HP, and MP from other characters as well. That HP stealing makes Bernard tankier than many might expect, and draining MP leaves mages decidedly less than useful. With this in mind, the fight can be played as either an endurance match or a rushdown, but the rushdown strategies often prove more satisfactory. They require some serious preparation though, so prepare to gear up.<\/p>\n
