Boss Guide: Phasaurus Rex

Immobilize the Phasaurus Rex Using Ice Pins

The Phasaurus Rex uses its head and tail to attack from one side to another. Getting hit will do some serious damage to your team, but you can avoid them by evading away from the boss as soon as it telegraphs its attacks.

You can also take advantage of the boss' slow movement by using an Ice pin or any pin that would immobilize it and getting some hits while it isn't moving.
