Use AoE Breath Skills

Breath skills, in addition to being AoE, also avoids the debuffs from Cheater Cheetah's Sandstorm (lowers accuracy of physical attacks) and Fizzle (disables use of spells).

Use Ice-Elemental Breath Skills

All three of the boss monsters are weak to Ice, so Ice-elemental Breath skills like Cool Breath are the best skill to use in this boss battle.
