How to Beat Glissando
Avoid Getting Enchanted
The Glissando has an attack that inflicts Charm on its target, which will cause the affected party member to lose control and attack the team instead of the enemy.
This is a particularly debilitating status effect, so prevent it by using the Anti-Charm Picto and Lumina dropped by the Tisseur to make this fight easier.
Don't Let the Fight Go Long
It is also recommended to finish the fight as quickly as possible, since the Glissando can gobble up a party member and remove them from the fight, further reducing your options in battle.
However, you can force the Glissando to expel the affected party member by breaking it and stunning the boss.
Use Ice and Dark Attacks
Lastly, use the Glissando's weakness against Ice and Dark to your advantage. Characters like Lune and Sciel will excel due to their specializations in these elements, and can make quick work of the boss.
Glissando Attack Patterns
Head Smah
| Glissando smashes its head into the Expedition. | |
| How to Dodge | Dodge as soon as you see it coming down to strike for both hits. |
|---|---|
| How to Counter | Parry both hits to launch a counter. |
Ballet Summons
| Glissando summons Ballets to attack the Expedition. | |
| How to Dodge | Jump Evade shortly after each Jump Flare appears. |
|---|---|

Enchant Attack
Glissando enchants its target, sending a blast at a single target. The attack only hits once, but Charms if it lands. Dodge after the 2nd purple-pink energy pulse fires off.
Tail Slam
Glissando uses its tail to slam its target, swiping at the whole party 3 times. Each attack has a short windup, so dodge as soon as you see it move after winding up.
