* ThatOneLevel: The Dark Mask. First, the level mostly consists of undead enemies, which means that they'll likely use Ryunna since her Turn Undead spell kills them for good and the player can deal more damage against them with her. Second, the boss at the end of the level is very challenging to defeat due to his elemental attacks. Finally, the player can't go to the promenade to buy the best healing items or soul returns to revive your partner, meaning you have to hope they're lucky to find them in previous stages or bought the maximum number before you can't enter the promenade.

* ThatOneBoss: Galahad when you first fight him in the Raid of the Elven Forest mission. To wit, you're on a narrow space of area that you can maneuver on while the guy decides to ''fly around and drop bombs on you.'' Half the time will be spent on running around avoiding him. There's only one way he'll stop flying and that only takes about 2-3 seconds in which you're probably spending the time to actually just dodge the bombs he throws at you. This can be a little mitigated when you actually main Elwyn as your partner. If you don't, be prepared for a very tedious fight when you're forced to bring someone you don't main. One saving grace is that if Elwyn is your partner, she has an ability that allows her to deal more damage to flying enemies like this boss.

* GameBreaker: Blanc Neige's Ice Wall. If you can set it up, it stays there for a long time, dealing big enough damage per seconds constantly, killing normal enemies with ease and if you can lure bosses to the wall, the ice wall can make a short work of the boss. And if the boss is stationary, you can just plant the ice wall and worry about dodging as the boss just waits to die. It's part of the reasons why a lot of people like to partner with Neige.
