Save Boosts for Breaks

Octopath Traveler 2 - Save Boosts For Break

In the later part of the battle, Veronica will start doing multiple consecutive actions per turn. This can be enough to immediately wipe out several members of your party in a single turn. Make sure you always have enough boosts to immediately break her as soon as you can.

She also has the ability to get rid of your characters for several turns. So make sure you're saving boosts for everybody in case she gets rid of your heavy hitters.

Utilize Skills That Change Turn Order

Utilize Skills That Change Turn Order.png
If you're unable to break Veronica, the least you'd want to be able to do is make sure she doesn't do her actions consecutively. Utilize skills such as the Hunter's Leghold Trap to give yourself some breathing room between her actions.

List of All Skills

Use Agnea's Windy Refrain

Agnea Windy Refrain
One skill that changes turn order is Agnea's EX Skill, Windy Refrain. This skill makes your whole party act first on the next turn, which also gives you more opportunities to Break Veronica, so make sure you've visited the corresponding altar to get the skill before fighting this boss.

Make Agnea into a Cleric

Cleric Agnea
You can also make Agnea's secondary job Cleric, which gives her access to skills like Prayer to the Flame and Sacred Shield. Use these skills in conjunction with her Latent Power to protect your whole party.
