Learn how to beat Lord Ochu in Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster. Get tips on its attacks like Water and Poison Claw, and exploit its weakness to fire.

• Resistances: None

Item Drops:

• Common Drop: MP Sphere (x1)

Phases:

1. Lord Ochu starts awake and will use Water and Poison Claw.
2. Around 2,500 HP lost, it falls asleep and gains Regen.
3. Physical attacks will wake it, triggering Earthquake. It may fall asleep again.

Strategy:

• Bring Lulu! She's your MVP here since Lord Ochu is weak to Fire. Keep pelting it with her magic.
• If you're struggling, grinding a bit in Kilika Woods beforehand can help.
• Lord Ochu's Water attack can be nasty. If Yuna has NulTide, cast it for party-wide protection. If not, be ready to use Antidotes or Esuna on poisoned characters. Poison drains 25% of max HP per turn, so don't ignore it!
• When Lord Ochu falls asleep (around 2,500 HP lost), it starts regenerating health. Magic won't wake it, but physical attacks will.
• Warning: Waking it up triggers Earthquake, which halves your max HP. Be prepared to heal immediately after it uses this.
• If things get too hairy, don't be afraid to use Flee, grind some more, and come back later. It's better than losing!
