  • Phases:
    1. Start with only Yuri. Avoid the boss until the party rejoins.
    2. Once the party rejoins, go on the offensive.
  • Strategy:
    • DO NOT use water Artes, as the boss absorbs water and heals. Turn off any water-based Artes for Rita.
    • Initially, avoid engaging the boss and use free run to maintain distance until your party rejoins.
    • Guarding is largely ineffective due to the boss's attacks causing stuns and knockback.
    • Attack when Rita stuns the boss with spells, and back off when he recovers.
    • Secret Mission: Strike the boss when he rears back on his hind legs. This is dangerous; attempt with caution or hope Rita's spells trigger it.
    • Conserve Orange Gels for Estelle and Rita to maintain their TP for healing and spellcasting.
  • Drops: Shield Light
  • Secret Mission Drops: Defense Ring
  • Steal: N/A
  • Experience: 1200
  • Gald: 1000
