Recommended Strategy

Attack the Green Plesioth's legs from underneath, but be ready to move away due to its numerous attacks. Stay close to keep projectile attacks at bay and pursue it if it moves or dives into water. When submerged, stay elevated and abreast of the Plesioth to avoid its sweeping water beams. Movement and cautious attacks are paramount when it's underwater as it becomes fast.
