How to Beat General Rou

Utilize Vengeful Blade Skill

Octopath Traveler 2 - Utilize Vengeful Blade

Having to face General Rou alone, it will be harder to figure out his weaknesses. General Rou has a relatively low shield value, so having a passive counter attack deplete his shield can help you break him easily. This will allow you to save your boosts and latent power for greater attacks when he is broken.
