Minotaur dooooown

I can't spell my name right, apparently

Here is my summary of Kyuuyaku Megami Tensei 1:
Fight through dungeon, gain levels, die and get kicked back to last save point.
Fight back through dungeon, gain levels, pick up an ally or two, die and get kicked back to last save point.
Finally have high enough levels/enough meatshields that you can go toe-to-toe with boss of dungeon. Defeat boss and proceed to next dungeon, wherein you go back to step one.

The boss of Daedalus, the Infernal King Minotaur, went down like this:
Beast Cancer takes the first slot and does nothing but defend to help absorb damage.
Hero (equipped with the best stuff from Vahalla) takes the second slot and attacks the whole time.
Shadow Stolas in slot three, using up the last of its MP to heal with Di.
Fairy Bogle in slot four spamming Zanma every turn.
Heroine (also equipped with the best stuff from Vahalla) in last place, healing with Jewels and Di whenever necessary.

Currently slogging my way through level 2, Bien, and getting my ass kicked by Medusa's Shadows, and its looking like I'm just gonna have to kick the bucket so I can get back to town and do some fusing.
