Save Boosts and Big Attacks
This chapter's boss can only be attacked once you destroy the accompanying steam engine. And when you do, you only have a small window to deal damage until they summon another steam engine to protect themselves.
Make sure that when you're about to destroy the Steam Engine, when its name is colored red, you have enough attacks to immediately break Thurston and deal a huge amount of damage.
Time Your Attacks in Order to Maximize Breaks
Make sure that when you're about to destroy the Steam Engine, when its name is colored red, you have enough attacks to immediately break Thurston and deal a huge amount of damage.
It is also recommended to use multi-hit skills apart from it being boosted in order to maximize damage while also saving up BP.
Use Partitio's Hired Help
Since you only have a small window to deal huge amounts of damage to Thurston, you can use Partitio's skill, Hired Help to maximize your damage output.
While Hired Help: Veteran Soldier costs 30,000 Leaves, boosting the skill to the maximum with Partitio's Latent Power guarantees that you deal a lot of damage to Thurston after Breaking him.

Was starting to think Game8 was a pretty good site. Guess it's just another IGN now. Bummer
