How to Beat Chromatic Jar

Use Elemental Attacks

Chromatic Jar Elemental Weakness

Chromatic Jar is weak against Earth, Fire, Ice and Lightning with most elemental attacks working against the boss. Lune takes advantage of this the most with her multiple-element attacks such as Elemental Genesis and Mayhem.

Dark and Light will also work for normal damage against the boss but do note that the Chromatic Jar is resistant to Physical attacks.

Shoot with the Elements

Chromatic Jar Shoot

Should you find yourself dealing 9999 damage almost consistently, one strategy to deal with the boss is to just use aimed attacks with an elemental weapon and having high AP.

This blitz strategy can be used to quickly whittle Chromatic Jar's health by using elemental aimed attacks with an extra elemental normal attack to deal as much damage as possible against Chromatic Jar.

Fast Offensives

Chromatic Jar Lamp Weakpoint
The best way to deal with Chromatic Jar is to always keep it stunned while dealing high damage fast attacks. Blitz for example, creates a free turn to deal more damage against targets while also dealing damage on its' own.
