How to Beat Viper

Watch Out for His Tech Skill G-Force

G-Force

While Viper poses no threat, he can still hit hard and whittle a third of your HP down with a single move.

His Tech Skill, G-Force is something you should look out for as it can easily deal over 100 damage.

Exploit His Weakness to Green Elements

Glenn vs Viper

Given that Viper is a Yellow-innate boss, take advantage of his weakness to Green Elements while using your strongest Tech Skills to take him down immediately.

If you've managed to recruit Glenn beforehand, he will prove to be useful for this fight. His Green-innate Tech Skills will be effective against Viper, alongside his Dual Tech Skill X-Strike with Serge.

General Tips

Deal Massive Damage with Dual Techs

X-Strike

If you managed to recruit Glenn in your playthrough, you will have access to a Dual Tech Skill between him and Serge called X-Strike.

Name Description
X-Strike A Red-innate combo attack on a single target, that requires the powers of Dash&Slash (Serge) and Dash&Gash (Glenn) to perform.

Pairing this Dual Tech Skill with their Single Tech Skills will make this battle end much faster.

There are more Dual Techs out there, even Triple Techs, so it's best to recruit as many characters as possible to see the other kinds of group Tech Skills you can execute to deal devastating damage against your foes!
