How to Beat Roachster

Watch Out for its Blue Tech Skills

Jitterbug

Coming from your last boss fight against Miguel, the Roachster shouldn't be much of a problem. However, its Tech Skills can easily deal over a hundred damage.

Be sure to heal your party members accordingly so as to prevent any complications against the Roachster!

Go All Out with Tech Skills and Summons

Inferno on Roachster

Considering that the health of the Roachster isn't much, you can just go all out with your strongest Tech Skills and Elemental Attacks to take it down fast.

One neat trick is to make use of Elemental Summons after maxing out the Field Effect to the summon's respective Element. The damage you can deal with Summons whilst having a maxed out Field Effect can easily go beyond 500.

General Tips

Taking Advantage of Field Effects

Field Guide
This battle is a perfect example of using Field Effects to one's advantage.

It is highly recommended to monitor Field Effects as it can influence the damage you deal and receive to and from your foes.

In this case, make sure that the Field Effect is in line with either an Elemental Summon or whatever your strongest Tech Skill is. By doing this, you can deal massive damage against the Roachster!
