Recommended Weapon Element | |
---|---|
Any Element Weapon | Xeno'jiiva is neutral in terms of weaknesses to element, so you can bring whatever element you want. Though it should be noted that if you are bringing the Dragonproof Mantle for this fight to counter Xeno'jiiva's Dragonblight, it might be useful to bring dragon weapons for the extra damage boost. |
Poison Weapon | Xeno'jiiva is extra weak to poison, so you can also bring a poison weapon if you have a strong one. |
Recommended Armor Skills | |
Fire Resistance | A lot of Xeno'jiiva's attacks are fire-based, so stacking Fire Resistance can mitigate some of his damage. |
Tremor Resistance | Xeno'jiiva can cause a lot of tremor that will incapacitate you, so getting Tremor Resistance can be helpful. |
Blight Resistance | Xeno'jiiva inflicts both Fireblight and Dragonblight, so you can get Blight Resistance to Lvl 3 if you are having problem with these. |
Evade Window | Evade Window can help you dodge Velkhana's attacks by adding invicibility frames to your evade. |
Health Boost | Having more health never hurts! |
Earplugs | Xeno'jiiva has a big roar, so getting Earplugs Lvl 5 would be immensely helpful. |
Xeno'jiiva Tips |
---|
・Use collapsable rocks in area 1 ・Shoot Xeno'jiiva using your slinger ・Fire Resistance is recommended |
In the first area where you will have to fight Xeno'jiiva, there will be four collapsable crystals that you can drop to Xeno'jiiva using your slinger to deal massive damage.
In the second area of the Xeno'jiiva fight, he will sometimes fly and perform a laser attack from the sky. You can easily shut this down by shooting him with Crystal Burst using your slinger to bring him down and cancel the attack.
It is important to build up your Fire Resistance to at least level 3 to completely counter most of Xeno'jiiva's attacks since they can inflict Fireblight. If it is not possible to build up your Fire Resistance, it is also a good idea to start using the Fireproof Mantle instead.
Normal State | Critical State |
---|---|
Xeno'Jiva shifts to the critical state after a certain period of time. When Xeno'Jiva reaches the critical state, his skin will be more vulnerable to your attacks but you will need to play safely to learn his movements since his attack patterns will slightly change.
Xeno'jiiva's big bang attack during the critical state is completely different from the normal state. A large explosion is now added and it can deal massive damage to anyone around his front legs. Try to move away from his legs when he leans forward to avoid this attack.
Xeno'jiiva uses an energy laser attack when he accumulates a certain amount of energy on his chest. Immediately sheath your weapon and move away from the laser energy when Xeno'jiiva stands on his hind legs. You can attack him during this situation but watch out for the heat damage from the laser and the tremors when Xeno'jiiva sinks into the ground.
During the Xeno'jiiva fight, it is highly recommended that you focus all of your attacks on his front legs since they are easy to reach and much more vulnerable than the hind legs.
