MAG can be recovered with \u201cMAG Drain,\u201d which steals MAG from attacked enemies. Make sure to balance weak, MAG-stealing attacks and stronger non-MAG-stealing attacks.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s worth noting that all demons, whether enemies or allies, have unique weaknesses and resistances, so keep your eyes peeled in combat! Attacking an enemy\u2019s weakness will stun them, restricting their actions and allowing you to inflict critical hits to increase the amount of damage dealt and the amount of MAG drained. You will have a variety of combat abilities and attacks at your disposal, so make sure to develop a solid strategy.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/pub-f354ec240bea480db7320bd0e29d972e.r2.dev\/sites\/2\/2025\/03\/007_Battle_DevilsBane_MS_EN-00324685e2d1e94d45dd.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-207652\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pub-f354ec240bea480db7320bd0e29d972e.r2.dev\/sites\/2\/2025\/03\/007_Battle_DevilsBane_MS_EN-00324685e2d1e94d45dd.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/pub-f354ec240bea480db7320bd0e29d972e.r2.dev\/sites\/2\/2025\/03\/007_Battle_DevilsBane_MS_EN-00324685e2d1e94d45dd-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pub-f354ec240bea480db7320bd0e29d972e.r2.dev\/sites\/2\/2025\/03\/007_Battle_DevilsBane_MS_EN-00324685e2d1e94d45dd-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/pub-f354ec240bea480db7320bd0e29d972e.r2.dev\/sites\/2\/2025\/03\/007_Battle_DevilsBane_MS_EN-00324685e2d1e94d45dd-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\"\/><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Investigation and Exploration<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>To find clues and crack the case, you will cross between the Dark Realm and the real world, explore the Capital and seek answers from people and demons on the streets.
