Before boarding, equip Earth plus Light, Water and Wind coverage. Lid can supply Earth. The Hunger-related creation takes Light, but experiment numbering differs between references; identify the selected target and inspect its affinity rather than assuming the number uniquely determines it.
Answer the dangerous action
Control an added experiment, then return to the boss. His self-injection changes the protected opening, so reassess damage and the timeline at that transition. Save recovery for Revenge Blast as HP falls. Temporary protection here is a combat condition, unlike an unwinnable scripted Ignis meeting.
After the battle
Finish the remaining experiments and victory scenes, then return through the capital conversations to the Enterprise. Camille’s later investigation is a separate quest rather than a prerequisite to finding Mysidia.
