Boss Tips


Learn and Boost HP Thief Skill

Octopath Traveler 2 - Save BP to Time Breaks
Before the boss fight, you should have enough JP to learn your first skill, and you should choose HP Thief. This skill allows you to attack a foe and regain half the damage back as HP. During the battle, every time you break Pirro, use and boost the HP Thief skill to deal a huge amount of damage and replenish your health as well.

Break and Boost System Guide

Utilize Throne's Latent Power

Octopath Traveler 2 - Throne Latent Power

During this battle, players will be introduced to the Latent Power mechanic. For Throne, her Latent Power Leave No Trace allows her to act twice in a single turn.

If you use her Latent Power after you break Pirro and while you have maximum BP, you'll be able to deal a lot of damage.

All Latent Powers Explained

Steal Light Soulstone and Use Against Him

Note that players can use Throne's Steal against Pirro, which could net you a Light Soulstone. Consider doing this when you have enough BP to increase the success rate of the Steal.

Upon stealing the Light Soulstone, use it against Pirro as he is weak to Light-based attacks.
