How to unlock the Museum of Vanity Closes trophy

    -( Story related, cannot be missed )-

    The Museum of Vanity, the second Palace, is available on May 16th until the deadline of June 5th. You will require a few days to complete this, as there is one barrier that prevents you from getting into it normally (a cognitive barrier) but it is still doable with the time you have.

    Tips for fighting Ichiryusai Azazel Madarame:
    1) The first part of the fight is against four paintings. The eyes are weak to magic and the nose/mouth are weak to physical attacks. Focus on getting rid of the eyes first, as the elemental attacks and debuffs will make the fight last a bit longer. Then drop the nose and the mouth.
    2) Deal plenty of damage when Madarame appears.
    3) When the paintings reform, keep this in mind: all must fall before one of the other pieces get turns. The eyes will act one after the other, and the same for the nose/mouth with some turns in between. So whittle down the health of each piece until they are close to death, then execute attacks to finish them in order (by keeping in mind the order they execute their turns so none get their next turn before they're dead).

    This trophy cannot be missed, it is the 2nd Palace the game has you complete.

    PLEASE NOTE There is wrong information in a previous walkthrough which has been corrected in this solution.

    The Museum of Vanity opens on May 16th until the deadline of June 5th.
    There is one barrier in the Palace which has to be opened in the real world, requiring a return to the Palace after this barrier has been passed.

    When fighting Ichiryusai Azazel Madarame please take the following things into consideration:
    The first part of the fight is against four paintings, forming a face. The Eyes are not weak to magic as a previous solution states and it actually heals them. Physical attacks only to harm these and you want to take these and the Nose out as quickly as possible.The Nose and the Mouth are weak to magical attacks with physical attacks healing them making them the opposite to the Eyes. Focus on getting rid of the eyes first as the debuffs and attacks they make can devastate your team.
    Once the first four painting are defeated, make sure you have a full team to maximise your "Hold Up" damage and then just wail on him until he reforms into the paintings.
    When facing the paintings, you will notice they are no longer at full health making them slightly easier to take out. Use the same strategy as before to damage the Eyes, Nose and Mouth but pay particular attention to the "Artist's Grace" debuff which makes you weak to all damage types. This is used by only one Eye, so taking it out and forcing it to reform lessens the boss' opportunity to use it.
    If you find yourself facing Madarame and having him reform into the paintings again, there is an opportunity to use a team member to use black paint to cover the paintings. This applies the same debuff to Madarame as he has been doing to your team. This removes the draining and healing ability of the separate pieces, allowing you to use Magic or Physical attacks on all pieces of the painting equally and gives you a massive damage boost as well.

    One persona that I found extremely useful had the 'Rampage' ability. This meant that hitting all pieces of the painting could be done - hitting the mouth until very little health was left and healing only a little meant that downing all pieces in one round became a practical strategy!

    Once Madarame is defeated, you have to wait for the deadline to expire before the Trophy pops, just like in the First Palace. Enjoy your nice shiny new Trophy!
