Do Not Use Fire Neutralize the Poison Maximize Your Damage

Do Not Use Fire

Avoid using fire-based attacks against Maneater Manjula. Not only will fire attacks be ineffective, but they will also enrage him, increasing his damage output significantly.

All Status Ailments and Effects

Neutralize the Poison

Maneater Manjula frequently uses the Poison Needle attack, which can inflict a dangerous poison status. This poison can cause continuous damage over time.

Have your healer ready to use the Patra ability immediately to neutralize the poison and prevent it from wearing down your team.

Maximize Your Damage

To maximize your damage output, focus on exploiting Maneater Manjula’s weaknesses. When he is staggered or vulnerable, use your Warrior or Knight's Synthesis Skills for heavy damage.

This will help you bring him down quickly before he can unleash more powerful attacks.
