How to Beat Creation

Destroy the Aberrations

Creation Aberration Support
The story boss version is supported by two Aberrations that will hurt the player by simple virtue of adding more attacks and boosting the Creation itself.

These targets are easier to take out than the actual boss, so prioritizing them first is a must. They are highly resistant to dark damage so avoid using this damage type against them.

Avoid Using Light Damage

Creation Not Dark Damage
The boss is highly resistant to Light damage, clued in with its' attacks being Dark focused. Verso's attacks or weapons dealing this damage type may make the boss fight harder.

Use any other element to aid in ending Creation quickly since the boss has a large health pool.

List of Enemies and Weaknesses

Heavy Offensives

Creation Full Offensive
Push through with high-damage area attacks that deal damage to all opponents in the field. Counter and Parry the easier moves of the boss to deal damage back against them and time your Gradient Attacks.

The boss will go down after its health bar is taken out with no second phase.

List of All Skills

Level Up to Level 70

Creation Boss Fight 2

To comfortably deal with this boss, the player preferably should reach Level 70 first with their weapons on Level 33 as Creation will decimate the party if underleveled ot if they cannot build enough damage against its' health pool.
