During Subquests, you will sometimes have to fight a boss while doing the quest. This page will pertain to the fight against Zhuque.
Where to Find Zhuque¶
Zhuque is a demon that is a part of The Gold Dragon’s Arrival quest. While you can log this quest at a low level, you will not be able to do battle with Zhuque until much later in the game, as he is level 43. You will find Zhuque in the Shiba area of Minato, but this is the one that is only accessible by passing through the Tokyo Tower area. From that Leyline, go north, west, then south down the long trail. You will find Zhuque flying around at the very end.

While Xuanwu was Ice and Baihu represents Electric, Zhuque will be the Fire boss during the quest. That means you will not want anyone weak to the element in your party. Zhuque has access to both Agilao and Maragion, but the latter is only used whenever it charges the Magatsuhi, so you can predict that. Besides the normal attack, the above two skills are the only actual damaging attacks in Zhuque’s arsenal, as the rest don’t hurt. That means if all of your party can block Fire, then the only way for Zhuque to deal damage is with normal attacks. The recommended team doesn’t all block Fire, though, as that might limit your damage output.
In addition to the above skills, you will also see Zhuque cast Masukunda on your team, decreasing their accuracy and evasion. Counter this with Masukukaja (or any other skill that has the same effect), or you could try Sukunda on the boss itself. However, there is a slight problem with that, as Zhuque knows Dekunda, which removes all stat buffs on itself, so it will always try to revert back to normal. If it keeps doing this, then it might be better to ignore stat debuffs and just concentrate on offense. You might also see Lullaby from it, although it doesn’t seem to use it very often. Zhuque is weak to Ice, so you should be blasting it with that element the entire time, plus it is also weak to Charm, if you happen to have any skills that can inflict that.
