Use Light-Based Abilities and Slash Attacks Against Zable Fahr

Zable Fahr is weak against light, so it is recommended that you use light-based abilities against it during battle. Use Holy Saber to imbue your weapon attacks with light-based elemental damage.

Slash attacks also exploit Zable Fahr's weakness, so using Holy Saber on either Val or Morley, members who specialize in slash attacks, will greatly decrease the boss' HP.

Use Lumina Lantern to Have Them Take Shared Damage

It is recommended that you use Lumina Lantern when facing Zable Fahr, as it links all three heads and makes then receive shared damage even if you're only dealing damage to only one head.

How to Get Lumina Lantern

Defeating the Two Heads First Will Make the Third One Appear

During the first phase of the battle, you will need to defeath Zable Fahr's heads. Once you've defeated the two of them, a third one will appear in the center and the two you've slain will be revived.

When you're facing all three heads of Zable Fahr, it is recommended that you deal with the corner heads first as they are more susceptible to damage compared to the center one.

Additionally, attacking the center head while the two corner heads are still active will make you an easier target for all their attacks.

Deplete the Blue Gauges During the Beam Attacks

Zable Fahr will unleash beam attacks with its three heads, which target the center portion of the area. The beam attacks can be indicated when blue gauges appear above the balls of energy where the beams originate.

Attack the balls of energy to deplete the blue gauges and prevent the beam attacks from continuing.

Dash Away From Black Hole Attack

Zable Fahr will execute a black hole attack where it summons a black hole at the center of the battlefield, which sucks your party members to its range. Dash away from the black hole until its effect duration is finished.

Dodge the Breath Attacks

In some cases, one of Zable Fahr's three heads will use a breath attack that homes in your direction.

The breath attack is fairly simple to dodge so long as you do not stay in one place, but it can be avoided entirely by heading below the head of the one performing the breath attack.

Avoid the Pillar of Light Attack

Zable Fahr will use an attack where it summons a light of pillar from the ground, which can be indicated by the red target marker that appears on the ground. Move away from the red target marker to avoid incurring damage.
