How to Beat the Striking Sabrecat
- Counter Wild Side with Kaclang
- Always Maintain Kabuff
- Try to Apply Dazzle When It's Safe
- Spam Cattle Prod
Counter Wild Side with Kaclang
At around half HP, Striking Sabrecat will use Wild Side to act four times a turn. When this happens, it's recommended to use Kaclang so that the party becomes immune and you can wait out the buff.
Kaclang Effect and Level Learned
Always Maintain Kabuff
Since the Striking Sabrecat only uses physical attacks, using Kabuff becomes necessary to reduce the amount of damage the party takes. Just make sure to watch everyone's HP and heal when necessary.
Kabuff Effect and Level Learned
Try to Apply Dazzle When It's Safe
Whenever the party is buffed up and fully healed, you can opt to try to Dazzle the boss. This will make it so that the party is less likely to be hit by powerful attacks, but it isn't guaranteed, so only attempt this when it's safe to do so.
Dazzle Effect and Level Learned
Spam Cattle Prod
During the fight, it's recommended to have the Prince of Midenhall as the main attacker using Cattle Prod. This means that the rest of the party should aim to support him and keep him alive in battle.
