Quest and Boss Walkthrough

Step-by-Step Guide
1 Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope - Cursa
Upon arriving Cursa's Stronghold, be sure to drop by the Salesbot and purchase any items you will be needing before taking on a series of battles.
2 Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope - Luring Darkmess Bowser
The King of Darkmess (Battle Quest)
Get to Darkmess Bowser by chaining Team Jumps alongside jump pads. Be sure to Dash towards nearby Goombas if they are within range. Once you're close enough to Darkmess Bowser, instead of using the pipes to attack him from behind, use Glitter's ability to get Darkmess Bowser closer to you and attack him from there.

Note: Bowser will join you in battle alongside your party of three.
3 Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope - Cannonball to Next Area
Follow the newly cleared path and cannon your way to the next Darkmess Puddle.
4 Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope - Taking on Darkmess Edge
Deep, Dark Secret (Battle Quest)
Get to Darkmess Edge by using the Rabbid pipes spread across the map. Be sure to prepare skills like Steely Stare and Hero Sight before using normal attacks to drain Darkmess Edge's health every time she moves.

Note: Edge will join you in battle alongside your party of three.
5 Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope - Golden Rabbid Cannon
After making the final preparations, like purchasing items from the Salesbot, take the golden Rabbid cannon and prepare to face Cursa!
Note: Be sure to save your game before pushing forward, as you won't be able to come back to this world after clearing the game.
6 Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope - Facing Cursa Cutscene
Cursa!!! (Final Boss Battle)
For the final battle, all your Heroes will be split into groups of three over three areas, so be sure to manage your team accordingly before starting the battle.

Note: The first set of Heroes will be Mario, Peach, and Rabbid Rosalina.
7
In order to deal massive damage against Cursa's Astral Arms, have a hero jump on the open trampolines to release a giant spike, then have Cursa's targeted Hero stand next to it before ending your turn.
8
Do the same strategy for the next turn, but before moving the targeted Hero, have Luigi use Steely Stare first to whittle down the Astral Arm's health whenever the targeted Hero moves.
Note: The second set of Heroes will be Luigi, Rabbid Mario, and Rabbid Luigi.
9 Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope - Edge Stormblade
Follow the same strategy as the previous two for the next turn. Instead of Steely Stare, use Edge's Stormblade to deal more damage.
Note: The third set of Heroes will be Edge, Bowser, and Rabbid Peach. At the end of this turn, the Hero set will return to the first one.
10 Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope - Targeting Cursa
Before moving to the next phase, take the time to heal your team and make any necessary adjustments to your party. Note that the Hero lineup and set order remains the same as well.
Note: Using every Signature Ability will be helpful for this phase to maximize support buffs and damage output per turn.
11 Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope - Charging Up Rosalina
For Cursa's final phase, target the Star posts to power up Rosalina to deal massive damage towards Cursa! To deal the finishing blow, you will have to max out Rosalina's gauge three times.
Note: Have one Hero dedicated to charging up Rosalina's gauge while the other two takes down nearby foes. Once the coast is clear, have everyone target the Star post!
*
Tip: Cursa also has the ability to push your Heroes back, so be prepared to chain Team Jumps until the Star posts are within reach once more.
12 Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope - Full Party Finishing Blow
After Rosalina attacks Cursa for the third time, a cutscene will play out and your party will defeat Cursa once and for all!
Note: After clearing the game, you will be sent to the title screen where you can load your file and complete the rest of the Side Quests you may have missed!
