How to Beat Xenlon

Bring Ways to Resist Breath Attacks

Xenlon has two powerful breath attacks, so you'll want to bring ways to reduce its damage. The best way to do this is by equipping party members with Dragon Robes and Light Dresses, as well as casting Insulatle when possible.

Use Cock-a-doodle-doo on Sleeping Allies

Lullab-Eye is a dangerous move that is guaranteed to put a party member to sleep. Make sure to cast Cock-a-doodle-doo on the sleeping party member's next turn, or else your entire party might be put to sleep.

Bring 2 Sage's Stones

It's recommended to bring 2 Sage's Stones on allies that are either fast or can't cast healing spells. This way you can conserve MP and you have extra forms of healing in case your main Healer or the Hero can't cast spells.

Save Hero's MP for Omniheal

In situations where you can't heal off Xenlon's damage, you'll want to cast Omniheal with the Hero to fully heal the entire party. However, this costs 62 MP, which is why you want to preserve MP with Sage's Stones.

Cast Kafrizz and Kazap for Damage

Ideally, you'd want to use Kafrizz and Kazap as your main attacks since they deal a lot of damage. You'd normally want to use Oomph-buffed physical attacks for damage, but Xenlon can use Disruptive Wave to remove your buffs.
