The main threat of this fight is Cradle Omega, but it also summons Cradle Delta and Cradle Epsilon to assist it. Cradle Delta is weak to Slash and resists all other damage types; Cradle Epsilon is weak to Fire and resists all other damage types.

Cradle Omega starts off weak to all magic and immune to all other damage types. Once it reaches 75% HP, it changes its immunities, becoming weak to Slash and immune to everything else. Once it reaches 50% HP, it changes its immunities, becoming weak to Pierce and immune to everything else. Finally once it reaches 25% HP, it changes its immunities, becoming weak to blunt and immune to everything else. You can speed through the phases with Another Force, but you cannot skip over phases this way as its HP will refuse to drop at each threshold.
At the 12th turn, Cradle Omega declares the charging of its Omega Decomposer. At the 15th turn and every 5 turns afterwards, it will also declare its charging progress. At the end of the 32nd turn, Cradle Omega will fire the Omega Decomposer, dealing an unstoppable 9999 damage to the party.

Tips[edit]
- Units who have multiple modes of attack are great for the fight. Cerrine, Joker and Morgana can strike its different weaknesses as the fight progresses.
- While Cradle Delta and Epsilon are active, minimal damage can be inflicted to Cradle Omega even if it is hit with an attack that is a weakness. As such, your starting frontline is preferably units with Fire and/or Slash skills to destroy the Delta and Epsilon. A fire mage like Gariyu can also help progress Cradle Omega's first phase.
- Since the AF stoppers are spaced close together, it's best to unleash a half-bar Another Force to advance to the next phase.
- As such, characters who can recharge AF quickly will significantly help.
- You may want to avoid using Zones - e.g. hitting its weaknesses with multi-hitting attacks that strike three or more times per turn charges the AF gauge more than using an attack that matches a normal Zone.
- Any units who cannot damage Cradle Omega can still switch back and forth to support with their Valor Chants.
- The Pseudo Spell skill added from the Wisdom Weapons Set can provide characters with a magic attack they normally would not have available. Certain Grastas also provide access to additional skills that could increase a character's flexibility in this battle.
- The mixture of both physical and non-Type magical attacks may require both PWR and/or INT debuffing to survive.
- Note that while the game provides no warning of this fact, this is actually one of the earlier Superboss fights in the game: it is not meant to be trivial, but rather an optional challenge for those who enjoy such things. Come prepared - e.g. your characters should be at high level, with all their skills unlocked, an appropriate weapon equipped (e.g. Tocachev), etc. It is very do-able, entirely without any later-game gear including grastas or gacha characters, but it will take more noticeably greater effort on your part than a mere story boss.
