How to Beat Duorduor

Gus' Chop Wood Skill Deals the Most Damage

Your companion for the chapter, Gus, has the skill Chop Wood that used at the right time, can potentially deal the most damage. Supply him with the Agnea's Lion Dance skill which increases his physical attack, break the Duorduor's shield, and apply maximum boost to the Chop Wood skill for a lot of damage.

Boost Buff and Debuff Skills

The tough boss in this chapter makes for a long battle. This makes buff and debuff skills very useful especially when boosted for increased duration.

Break and Boost System Guide

Bring Heals

Duorduor is a tough boss with a high HP and Shield value. Even if you're able to deal high amounts of damage every turn, it will still get enough turns to deplete both of your characters' HP. Make sure you're stocked with heals before entering the battle.
