How to Beat Father

Use Elemental Soulstones

Octopath Traveler 2 - Throne Chapter 3 Father Route Walkthrough - Use Soulstones

Soulstones are powerful items that deal elemental damage. If your main elemental user is low on SP, it is recommended that you check your items if you have Soulstones handy. Specifically, you should have Soulstones that deal Wind and Light damage to Break Father.

Break First, Damage Later

Octopath Traveler 2 - Throne Chapter 3 Father Route Walkthrough -  Focus on Breaking Father
It is recommended to focus on breaking Father first before focusing on dealing damage as it will give you the chance to heal and regroup while he can't attack.

Attacks like Throne's HP Thief attacks twice with a dagger, while Temenos' Latent Power allows him to lower Shield Points regardless of the attack used.

At the later stages of the fight, Father's speed will hasten, giving him more chances to attack successively. Break him with BP-powered physical attacks to prevent him from taking the advantage.
