How to Beat Perilwing Ryuho

Perilwing Ryuho Boss Guide
Constantly Set Field Arts Spam Resonant Flag Bank on Chain Attacks Invest in Dexterity and Accuracy Boosting Accessories Quell Enraged Mode with Burst Fight on the field

Constantly Set Field Arts

Be careful not to be stationary when using Sena, as your role is to constantly go around the field setting Heal Harmony where your Defenders and Attackers are. This will set a field Art to regenerate their health, giving you some free space to execute your second role as a Support Healer.

Spam Resonant Flag

After setting field Arts near your allies, be ready to constantly recharge Resonant Flag and spam it whenever available. This will provide buffs to your teammates as well as yourself, to boost damage and defenses all while your HP is regenerated with the set Field Art.

Bank on Chain Attacks

Chain attacks will be a staple thing whenever dealing with a Unique Monster of a higher level, but it becomes a crucial part of any plan to take on a Superboss. Equip accessories like Crystal Earrings to fill up the Chain Attack gauge slightly faster with each Art execution.

Invest in Dexterity and Accuracy Boosting Accessories

Perilwing Ryuho is notoriously evasive especially when it has the advantage up in the air. Counter this by investing in Dexterity-boosting accessories like Carbon Gloves and Accuracy-boosting accessories like Smithy Gloves.

Quell Enraged Mode with Burst

Once the boss' HP drops below the threshold, it will enter an enraged state that can knock back allies and ruin formation. Be sure to equip Arts needed for a Burst Combo and aim for a Burst to return its stats to normal. This weakening effect will expire eventually, so prepare to do another Burst when Perilwing Ryuho becomes enraged again.

If your party have Arts with Launch, remember that you can change your team's combo tactic (by holding ZL) to the Burst Combo so they will prioritize following a Topple with Daze and Burst, instead of Launch and Smash. Extend the duration of quelled rage with accessories like Star Anklets and Moon Anklets.

Fight it out on the field

The Perilwing Ryuho will be flying above water for most of its territory. Be sure to attract it and force it to fight you on level ground instead of the water. There are other monsters in the water might get dragged into the fight making it harder than it has to be.

Main Buff Giver

Switch to Sena as your main character and allow your team to handle aggro and damage on auto. As Sena, your main tactic would be to constantly provide Buffs and set Field Arts to boost damage and regenerate HP from taking hits. While waiting for arts to recharge, you can also benefit from equipping a Gold Necklace to reduce the aggro generated from your own auto attacks.

Constant Healer

Equip accessories like Solis Rings to boost Healing as you will be constantly checking your team's HP as you go around the field setting regenerative Field Arts while they constantly deal damage.
