How to Beat Penteratic Guardian

Penteratic Guardian List of Attacks

Penteratic Guardian is purely a physical attacker. It will perform attacks that would hit either single or multiple targets. Penteratic Guardian will occasionally attack multiples times throughout the battle.

Stock Up on Amor Seco Essence

Be Careful of Stomp

Stomp is a powerful attack that will deal damage to all monsters in your party. It is recommended to use items that heal all monsters in your party instead of just one.

Be sure to buy a decent amount of Amor Seco Essence from the shop located at the basement of Rose Hill Tower.

Use Buffs or Debuffs to Counter Against Physical Attacks

Reducing the Boss' Accuracy is Not Recommended

Penteratic Guardian mostly relies on physical attacks during battle. It is best to use skills such as Attack Attacker to lower its attack potency and Kabuff to increase the overall defense of your party.

Penteratic Guardian will still hit you even if you applied the Attack Attacker debuff on him, so be sure not to rely on that skill more often.
