How to Beat Robbin' 'Ood

Defeat the Robbin' 'Oodlums First

Defeat Robbin Oodlums First
Much like the first fight, you'll want to prioritize defeating the Robbin' 'Oodlums first using Ice attacks. This is even more important this time around since they can now cast Midheal and reduce your party's defense with Kasap.

Cast Kabuff and Sap

Use Kabuff to Counter Defense Drops
Again, like the first fight, make sure to use Kabuff to raise your party's defense, as well as Sap on Robbin' 'Ood to lower his. Kabuff is much more important this time around since you need to counter Kasap's defense drops.

Seal the Robbin' 'Oodlums' Spells

Fizzle the Robbin Oodlums
Since the Robbin' 'Oodlums can use spells like Kasap and Midheal, you want to apply Fizzle to prevent them from casting. Make sure to do this before the fight gets out of hand and your defenses are severely lowered.

Apply Snooze and Dazzle Effects

Put Enemies to Sleep
Alternatively, you could also apply Sleep or Dazzle on the enemies so that you don't have to worry about your team's lowered defense. However, this isn't recommended since the effect might not always apply to the targets.
