How to Beat Toxidillo

Tips

Attack its Weak Point

Attack its Weak Point.gif
Toxidillo's Weak Point can easily be broken with persistent attacks. Directly target it and unleash all attacks against it – Alphen's Flaming Edge attacks are particularly effective here.

Use Alphen's Boost Attacks

Use Alphen
Alphen's Boost Attack is effective at staggering Toxidillo, which will prevent it from attacking, unless it enters its Over Limit. If the boss is in Over Limit, save your Boost Attack for when the boss returns to normal to ensure a stagger.

Use Flaming Edge Attacks

Since your combat options are limited at this stage of the game, fighting against Toxidillo mostly revolves around staggering it and dealing enough damage when it's stunned to take it down. The best way to do this is to attack its Weak Point.

To make the process of breaking its core go faster, use Alphen's Flaming Edge attacks to deal damage to the Weak Point.

Primary Attacker

As the only melee attacker in your party at the moment that can deal damage quickly, Alphen will be your main source of damage output in this fight. His primary focus should be on Toxidillo's Weak Point, as his attacks can easily break it with persistent hits.

Attack From a Distance

It is best to keep Shionne out of the way of Toxidillo's attacks to avoid taking unnecessary damage. Conserve CP and recovery items as much as possible since you will need those resources as you progress further on in Glanymede Castle.

Shionne's ranged attacks can be useful if the field is covered in poison. Generally, switch to Shionne any time Alphen can't get within melee range.

Toxidillo Attack Patterns

Poison Blobs

Poison Blobs.gif
One of its more common attacks, Toxidillo will spin in place on its shell, spewing out poison that will splatter on the ground. Getting his by the blobs or stepping into the poison splatter may cause you to be inflicted with the Poison Physical Ailment.

Charge Attack

Charge Attack.gif
Like most other Zeugles of its type, Toxidillo can charge at you. In its Over Limit state, it can repeat its charge attack multiple times. It's best to avoid engaging with the boss while it is in Over Limit mode, and focus on evasion until the boss returns to normal.

Bounce Attacks

Bounce Attacks.gif
The start up animation of this attack looks similar to the boss' Charge Attack. However, in this attack the boss will begin bouncing around randomly, which can knock you back dealing high amounts of damage if you get hit by one of its bounces.

Generally, try to time your doges to the rhythm of the boss' bouncing pattern. If timed properly, even if the boss lands near you, there is a good chance you will perform a perfect dodge.
