The Silverbones Medal bestows you with a couple of different unique abilities. The Silver rank allows you to recover MP when hit with a magic attack, which gives you the opportunity to retaliate faster. The Rainbow rank also allows you to inflict more physical damage on your opponent. When you couple this with increased Slash damage, you have yourself a pretty formidable combination.

Silverbones doesn’t have any elemental weaknesses since it is a boss monster. It is, however, resistant to status effects such as stun, sleep, or poison. You will want to go in heavy with your physical attacks to take down Silverbones, but you will reap some great rewards when you do.

You can find She-Slimes around Cinderback Ridge and The Snarl. They are also weak to water, wind, and earth, but quite strong against fire and explosion moves, so it would be wise to steer clear of those when taking on a She-Slime.

This means you can have a higher percentage of strong spells peppering your enemy at once.

When combined with other medals that boost magic skills, and perhaps one that focuses on whatever type of spells you use most, your strength could go up tenfold with the Soggy Hand Medal. You can get your hands on some Soggy Hands around The Hinterquarters, Wingswept More, and The Snarl. They are also weak to slash, wind, electricity, and explosions.

Deftness is a great skill to have boosted because it is essentially your luck. This dictates how often you land a critical hit, your chances of hitting your enemies first, and increases your chances of successfully stealing an item from them or fleeing. You can find Ultra Marines in The Hinterquarters, and they have a decent amount of weaknesses as well. They are weak to dark, poison, electricity, gravity, and light.

2 Proudmane, Sentinel Of The Cinders

Proudmane, Sentinel of the Cinders, is a formidable foe, but getting hold of one of their medals is well worth your while, especially if you are lucky enough to bag a Rainbow Medal. Proudmane is a story boss, so you will come across them when the time is right. When you do, make sure you aim for the gem on its chest.

The Proudmane medal is epic in all ranks, particularly the Rainbow rank. This reflects physical damage back to your enemy. Reflecting damage back toward your enemy is a priceless skill to have, especially when you're going up against super-strong attackers.

Rimeblood, Sentinel of the Snow, is a similar sort of deal to Proudmane. Rimeblood is also a story boss, and his Rainbow medal reflects the abilities of Proudmane's. But rather than reflecting physical damage back to your enemy, the Rimeblood Medal reflects magic damage.

If you are looking for the best medals in the game, equipping a Rainbow Proudmane Medal and Rainbow Rimeblood Medal is an OP combo that allows you to reflect both magic and physical damage back toward your enemy.
