You an absolute legend for posting this and deserve all the flowers you get. Seriously one of the biggest life savers for one of biggest hurdles to Platinum I've ever seen.
Thank you so much!!! I was able to defeat Galdera in OT1 on my own but I hit a wall trying my best in OT2. Made it to the second phase but the party wasn't ideal so with this video I got it done. Thanks again.
I must say that this is not only a great guide for this boss, but one of the best guides that I've seen on this platform. All the explanations were scrupulous. Thank you so much!

I was worried about this boss my whole playthrough. Followed this guide - and the fight could not have been easier!... Thank you for taking the time to make this guide.
The absolute best guide I found. Almost none of my party members were in order, and still managed to beat it. Very good job on this guide, much appreciated!
Thanks for the guide. Adapted it a bit and used for example just one forbidden elixir. And after I beat this boss, I still had to run around and knock like 50 people down for plat. Felt strange but also nice running around and giving everyone a high five with Throne.
I have seen a few guides but this one is the best so far in terms of organization and step by step on how to react even when the characters are not in order. Thank you for the detailed guide.
I'm really pleased it worked for you. I to spent over a week trying to defeat this boss, compared to all of the other bosses in the game this one was by far the most problematic to figure out.
List of most frustrating bosses in the game: 1: Galdera 2: Thurston 3: ... Nobody else comes close lol Galdera really does have a million different gimmicks that'll completely rock you if you let him move at all, doesn't he? I struggled a bit with him in the first game, but it didn't take me long to come up with a good strategy for beating him on my own. Octopath 2 Galdy seems undefeatable unless you come at him with immense efficiency and enormous power.
Yeah I intentionally took my time so people could follow, Also I was following my notes and did not want to mess up which is part of the reason I went slow. 😜 I'm glad you managed to beat it. 👍
Wow thank you for this, it's very kind of you and much appreciated. It's my first ever Thanks donation. 😁 I'm really pleased you got the platinum trophy as it's an awesome game and a fun platinum to go for, But the jump in difficulty for the final boss compared to all the others was nuts lol.
Dude, thank you so so much for this. Been trying to fight this guy for over a week and have tried using other guides, but they all rely heavily on some form of RNG (Turn order or relying on Dreadwing beast move to 1HKO the arms), or requires finite materials (Reinforcing/Rejuvenating Jam) that I had 0 of by the time I made it to this boss. The way you've set this up where you can still follow it regardless of who starts first, and without multiple Battle-Tested weapons/job licenses/rare jams, is incredible. Took him down within an hour of watching your vid. Thanks again and good stuff👍👍
Hi, Yeah I had been trying for almost 3 weeks to beat this boss and I kept failing over and over. I looked at some of the guides online and they all kept using Hikari in phase two to defeat the boss, but it just did not work for me. I then tried Throne in the second phase and again I just could not do enough damage to the boss and it just wiped the floor with me. So I went through ever bit of gear I had and thought Temenos may have better nuke damage and thankfully it worked. Since each phase only needs one damage dealer it was easy to make it work no matter which character went first. 😀
I'm glad it worked for you. This fight was a nightmare for me until I switched to Temenos. I tried Throne and Hikari as damage dealers in phase two and kept getting destroyed, until I switched to Temenos. 😂
This Guide is spot on, had to jump back and forth depending on whose go it was in the first phase, but it all worked as you said. You beauty. appreciate the time and dedication you put in to getting us lot through it. thanks.
Absolutely brilliant guide, thanks a mile, I was struggling versus the boss a lot but this strategy worked flawlessly. Did some octopuff/cait farming just to be sure and spent all my nuts onto hikari/temenos for good measure. Temenos was hitting 99999 with each tick lol.
This guide really is as exact as possible when it comes to the stats, My temenos had 531 elemental attack compared to their 532 and it wasn't enough to destroy all the limbs.
Thank you for this guide! After trying many other methods and failing (usually on the second phase) this one finally got it. For anyone wondering, I had Temenos at level 67 and Hikari at 68 before starting the fight. But that said, I invested a few Magic Nuts on Temenos to get his Elem Atk up a bit higher, so that may have helped.
Thank you so much GGG for this guide, I followed your guide to the teeth and finally beat the boss at my second attempt. I failed for the first time because my attention slipped for a moment. The second time, there was also a bit of uncertainties as I messed up one or two steps, but I try to go back to the path you were leading and I won! I finally finished the boss that I have been putting off for a few months. This experience made me realise 1) brute force without strategy simply won't work in some cases 2) with the right strategy, you will will win without even being scratched 3) always seek guidance from others when you feel lost and confused and 4) keep calm and carry on when things go wrong, do not give up right away.
Yeah this boss was such a step up on all other fights in the game. When I first fought Galdera aka the boss I was so frustrated that I could not beat it after multiple attempts as the second phase constantly defeated me. I also looked for guides on TH-cam but couldn't find anything that worked for me. So I sat down and tried to work out a strategy, based on what other people had done that worked for me & this is what seemed to work. I decided to make a guide because if I though it was difficult then I guessed a lot of other people would to. However I never expected this video to get as many views as it has lol.😂 Well done on beating the boss I hope you got your platinum trophy. 👍
WORKED LIKE A CHARM. Some turns had a different turn order but as long as i followed what you did with each character it all panned out. Thanks a lot man
Nice one I'm glad you beat it, hope you got the platinum trophy. 👍 Yeah the turn should not matter that's why I put the text on the screen. Since only one character is the damage dealer per stage all the others are just there to buff or debuff you and the boss.
Thanks so much. I had the same issue. For some reason though I had the giants club and my Hikaru is level 90, he needed 2 attacks to skip the elemental phase. So instead of defending, I attacked a second time with the fully boosted Lion’s Axe attack. Then I followed the rest of your instructions for the win. Your guide was the only one that worked for me.
Thank you so much for the easy to follow guide. I had to improv the first phase a bit as my Hikari was not strong enough to skip the elemental phase (lower level + accidentally sold Giant’s Club). Using a boosted “Beastling” Hired Help and a large soulstone let me break all the limbs again, then I tried my best to keep Hikari’s BP high so he could get off the max Warlord Spear swing again, defeating the limbs a second time. The second phase worked perfectly though; cool strategy and very satisfying to pull off. Cheers!
Thank you SOO MUCH for this walkthrough. I wanted to 100% the game but have been putting off fighting Galdera. Thanks to your video I was able to defeat the boss in one shot! Thank you!! 😁😁
I'm so glad I found this. I struggled with this boss for almost 2 months straight!! I had mostly the same jobs on each of my characters, but I was initially trying to do basically the opposite teams for phase 1 and 2. Doing your strategy instead I had a much easier time. My characters were slightly less leveled than yours so on phase 2 I ended up needing 1 extra turn, having to use 3 forbidden potions and casting Sacred effulgence 3 times during the fight but still beat it almost as quickly
I attempted a similar strategy a few times before seeking help, I was using armasters Hikari and arcanist Temenos but I couldn't get past the first phase. You helped me out lots simply with Ochette summons, they honestly were the key! Thanks lots!
It took a few tries as my Temenos was not strong enough but after leveling him up a bit more this guide worked like a charm. Thank you for putting this together for us.
The GOAT. I'm 140 hours into my play through, have done everything else, and was getting flashbacks to the 20 hours I spent to beat Galdera in the first game... So this was much appreciated, thank you!!
Thank you, frustrated to face this almighty boss, been searching for so many guide in yt and didn’t work untill I see your guide and voila IT WORKS! Finally can put my controller down and finish my last side quest 😊🙏🏻
Takes some preparation, as it did in the first game, but well worth it as this strategy is flawless. Makes me wonder since Galdera's hellgate is on an island now, as opposed to the previous game, there considerably much time must have passed between the first game and the second. Enough time for Galdera to accumulate power. Now let's say he had managed to come back entirely in full power. He would then have to content with Vide, a battle that without a doubt would destroy the world. Interesting to think about... Big thanks GGG for this guide.
Thank you so much for this guide. This strategy is awesome… the usage of monsters’ capabilities is so smart and well prepared! I could kill this secret boss it on my third try. The trick on my side was to equip finisher claws on Hiraki instead of Temenos. Temenos used Fang of Ferocity. I then used all my attack/crit nuts on Hikari and all my elemental attack/SP nuts on Temenos to boost their stats. Nailed it. You’re the Octopath Traveler 2 legend… THANKS !!!
This was incredible. I beat Galdera in the first game on my own but this go around I couldn't get past the first round. This was exactly what I needed!
Most useful guide on how to defeat Galdera by far, thanks! My Hikari was not powerful as yours, so I made a couple of small adjustments, I cast another Axe of the Lionheart before the limbs regrew using one of Aelfric's bonus turns, and then I actually killed the first phase a turn later b/c I used an item to restore my SP. Overall, super useful!
Thank you for this guide! it really help me out, my line up when I was in battle wasn't quite like yours due to my characters speed was all different so I had to be very caution and try to follow what you do but in a different order loll
Thank you! really great guide and for those who got a little stuck like me increase Hikari Critical not only Phys. Atk. the butler tailcoat is great for it :)
Hey, I only played the game now, and I didn't have to use a guide for any other boss. That being said, I am really not good at the game and Galdera already traumatized me enough in Octopath 1, so I wasn't ever gonna go through that again in 2 without help. Thank you so much for relieving me of the trouble. I have to again stress I am really not good at these games, so your video was massively appreciated.
To be honest I was the same as you, the only boss that gave me any issues was this one. Hence the reason I made the guide as I thought it was such a jump in difficulty.
Don't know if it matters, but I forgot to turn it to nighttime, and I still destroyed the boss. Thanks for this. Turn order was so strict on every other video I watched except this one. Absolutely perfect.
Glad it worked for you, I'd always recommend people switching it to night to get the extra buffs etc.. But I guess you were powerful enough not to need them. 👍😃
Thank you so much for this awesome guide. It detailed everything perfectly. My first attempt my Temenos was quite where he needed to be so on the 2nd attempt when one was defending I fed Temenos some elemental atk boosting food and that did the trick it seemed
Nice one I'm glad you finally beat it. 👍 Yeah I'm guessing you can give Temenos attack food with a character that is defending, but you might need to be careful that it does not heal his health up as this may reduce the effect of Alpione's Amulet.
Thanks. That was a great help. I wouldn't do it without this guide. I just had to improvise a little in the first phase as the boss had elemental weaknesses too, but with Hired Help > Beastlings it did the job to remove shields.
Glad it helped and grats on the defeating Galdera. Yeah I did the guide to bypass the elemental phase as it becomes a tad more complicated to beat the boss, but nice work. 😃👍
Thanks for the video, this was super helpful! Definitely would have never beat this final boss without it. It took quite a lot of setup for me personally (needing a lot of the gear, then grinding my Tem and Hikari up to 85 or so). It was also a little tricky if Hikari didn't naturally fall behind Ochette, but alas, after about 3 tries I finally got it. One note for anyone reading this: The Champ Belt seems to be missable after the epilogue starts since the arena no longer appears to be open. So, that item wont be obtainable, unless I missed something, so be sure to grab it before you start the epilogue! Anyway, thanks again for a super helpful video, I can't imagine how long it took you to plan this all out but it was perfect.
Hi, I'm pleased it helped. Grats on beating the boss I'm glad you finally got it down. It took me about 3 weeks to plan it all out and make the video, so it's nice to see it's actually helping people as I found this fight the most challenging in the game. I pretty much 1 or 2 shot most of the bosses bar this one. 😂
Very good guide. Even though my Hikari wasn't strong enough to one shot the first wave of adds, so I had to face an extra set with the elemental weaknesses. Wasn't too bad with combining the other guide's strategy on using Dreadwing for that part. Phase 2 was cake after all that. Hikari was 82 and Temenos was only 76
Nice one, Grats on finally beating it. It's good to know it can be defeated with the main damage dealing characters 70 plus. I should have asked people to list their level numbers in the comments.
Thank you, but I would like to point out a few things 1) heal up, and fill up your latent energy for all 8 character 2) learn all the skill on secondary job as mention in the video. My throne first time equip with cleric, and I went into the fight with no cleric skill 😂 3) and also finish temenos story as you need his ex skill. I didn't finish mine and couldnt find the skill when I needed it. Silly me😂😂😂😂😂
OMG thank you so much. You totally deserve more views on this as this actually just works. I have tried for weeks to beat this boss and followed all the guides I could find on TH-cam and none of them worked for me. On my second try with your guide I beat it (I messed up on the first go ) After so many goes finally. 😀
This worked for me exactly like in the video without needing any extra turns with a level 70 temenos, and a level 78 hikari. I think it might work with lower levels even. Thank you for this guide, the fact it works regardless of turn order or any other RNG element is amazing.
I raised my party up to lvl 79, Hikari lvl 84, Temenos lvl 87 First phase went exactly as planned following the video. Second phase…oh man I was sweating. Temenos did NOT kill all limbs first time he used Sacred Effulgence, as the head stayed alive. I used Throne’s Latent power and gave Temenos the 2nd Forbidden Elixer, and then used Aeber’s Reckoning to ensure the Abyssal Maw’s defeat, as it was in the red, and it worked! After the turn ended, the protection on Galdera was lifted and I was able to pull off the 2nd Sacred Effulgence!! Osvald was able to go before that, so for full assurance, I had him give Temenos an item (Crème de Brûlée I think) that refilled SP (even though it was full already) and added elemental attack buff. When Temenos used the move, it killed him!! Thank you SOOO very much for this tutorial! I can rest easy now.
I'd just like to thank everyone who has viewed & also donated a super chat on this video.

I'm really pleased it worked for you.
I to spent over a week trying to defeat this boss, compared to all of the other bosses in the game this one was by far the most problematic to figure out.

Yeah I intentionally took my time so people could follow, Also I was following my notes and did not want to mess up which is part of the reason I went slow. 😜
I'm glad you managed to beat it. 👍
Was about to give up on the platinum until I saw this. By far the easiest to follow Galdera guide that takes out ALL of the RNG. Thanks!
Wow thank you for this, it's very kind of you and much appreciated.
It's my first ever Thanks donation. 😁
I'm really pleased you got the platinum trophy as it's an awesome game and a fun platinum to go for, But the jump in difficulty for the final boss compared to all the others was nuts lol.

Enough time for Galdera to accumulate power. Now let's say he had managed to come back entirely in full power. He would then have to content with Vide, a battle that without a doubt would destroy the world.
Interesting to think about...
Big thanks GGG for this guide.
I'm glad you managed to beat it, it was a pretty annoying fight until I switched to Temenos. 😃
Absolute God, thank you so much, honestly one of the best guides i have ever seen.
Glad it worked for you.
Well done on beating it. 👍
THANK-YOU SO MUCH! It finally worked for me, due to your detailed guide and patience. Levels between 72 and 78.
You're welcome, I'm glad you were able to beat it.
Congrats on hopefully getting your platinum trophy.
Thank you so much for this guide. This strategy is awesome… the usage of monsters’ capabilities is so smart and well prepared!
I could kill this secret boss it on my third try. The trick on my side was to equip finisher claws on Hiraki instead of Temenos. Temenos used Fang of Ferocity. I then used all my attack/crit nuts on Hikari and all my elemental attack/SP nuts on Temenos to boost their stats. Nailed it.
You’re the Octopath Traveler 2 legend… THANKS !!!
Really glad it helped and well done on beating it.
It's the most annoying boss in the game for me as the jump in difficulty was just nuts.
Beat him first try with this, didn't even need to follow turn for turn once I understood Ochette & Temenos' roles. Thanks so much
Nice one I'm glad you managed to defeat the boss. 👍
Completed it & got my Platinum Trophy! Thanks so much for this guide!
Nice one, Grats on getting your Platinum. 🏆👍
Thank you very much , i just did it because of you ! The first battle hasn't the same tempo but the second one , was exactly the same. Wow thx ! :)
You're welcome, I'm glad it helped you.
Well done on beating it and hopefully getting the platinum. 👍
Thank you so much. You made my day!
I finally beat him like couple of times. What a massive boss!
Awesome I'm glad you beat it.
Congratulations on getting it done, hopefully you can now obtain the Platinum trophy.
This was incredible. I beat Galdera in the first game on my own but this go around I couldn't get past the first round. This was exactly what I needed!
I'm glad you found it helpful.
Congrats on defeating the boss. 👍
What a great game, a tough boss and a great guide. Thank you for the work you have put in. As already mentioned, it worked wonderfully.
Thanks.
I'm pleased you found it helpful, grats on beating it.
Probably the best boss walkthrough I've ever seen. Everything worked perfectly, so well planned-out. Thanks for sharing this guide!
Glad it helped. 👍
Most useful guide on how to defeat Galdera by far, thanks! My Hikari was not powerful as yours, so I made a couple of small adjustments, I cast another Axe of the Lionheart before the limbs regrew using one of Aelfric's bonus turns, and then I actually killed the first phase a turn later b/c I used an item to restore my SP. Overall, super useful!
Hi and thanks.
I'm glad you found it useful.
Well done on beating the boss & hopefully you got your platinum achievement. 👍
Just completed it today using this guide. Followed steps and executed first time, thanks so much!
Nice one, Glad it helped.
Well done on beating it. 👍
Thank you for this guide! it really help me out, my line up when I was in battle wasn't quite like yours due to my characters speed was all different so I had to be very caution and try to follow what you do but in a different order loll
Glad it helped, congrats on beating it. 👍
Thank you for this guide. I just beat Galdera 10 mins ago because of this. I made a few adjustments but everything worked out!
Great to hear, congrats on defeating it.
I can beat galdera on ocopath 1 with my own.. but this one is on whole another level..
Thanks for this amazing guide!
Glad I could help.
Well done on beating it.
THANK YOU!! I finally beat Galdera (after a few attempts) and was able to complete the game! What a MASTERPIECE! I am gonna miss all the characters 🥲💔
Well done on beating it. 👍
Yeah I agree it's an amazing game, I hope we get a Octopath 3 at some point.
Thank you! really great guide
and for those who got a little stuck like me increase Hikari Critical not only Phys. Atk.
the butler tailcoat is great for it :)
Glad it helped. 👍
Thank you so much for this!!! What a great guide. I was able to get the platinum today because of your video.
Glad It worked for you.
Grats on getting the platinum. 👍
Hey, I only played the game now, and I didn't have to use a guide for any other boss.
That being said, I am really not good at the game and Galdera already traumatized me enough in Octopath 1, so I wasn't ever gonna go through that again in 2 without help.
Thank you so much for relieving me of the trouble. I have to again stress I am really not good at these games, so your video was massively appreciated.
To be honest I was the same as you, the only boss that gave me any issues was this one.
Hence the reason I made the guide as I thought it was such a jump in difficulty.
Awesome game and great guide, tried it for almost a week without real progress after watching the video and some grinding did it with the third try.
Glad it helped and grats on beating the boss. 👍
Flawless strategy, many thanks for sharing. I just got the plat 🎉
Nice one, I'm glad you managed to get it.👍
Don't know if it matters, but I forgot to turn it to nighttime, and I still destroyed the boss. Thanks for this. Turn order was so strict on every other video I watched except this one. Absolutely perfect.
Glad it worked for you, I'd always recommend people switching it to night to get the extra buffs etc..
But I guess you were powerful enough not to need them. 👍😃
you just helped me get the platinum trophy, thank you for the guide!
Glad I could help.
Well done on getting the platinum.
Thank you so much for this awesome guide. It detailed everything perfectly. My first attempt my Temenos was quite where he needed to be so on the 2nd attempt when one was defending I fed Temenos some elemental atk boosting food and that did the trick it seemed
Nice one I'm glad you finally beat it. 👍
Yeah I'm guessing you can give Temenos attack food with a character that is defending, but you might need to be careful that it does not heal his health up as this may reduce the effect of Alpione's Amulet.
@@GGGx3 it was an elemental attack and sp recovery. Was some sea food dish. Thank you again, subbed and liked :)
Thanks. That was a great help. I wouldn't do it without this guide. I just had to improvise a little in the first phase as the boss had elemental weaknesses too, but with Hired Help > Beastlings it did the job to remove shields.
Glad it helped and grats on the defeating Galdera.
Yeah I did the guide to bypass the elemental phase as it becomes a tad more complicated to beat the boss, but nice work. 😃👍
THANKS A LOT FOR THIS!!! Saved me a lot of time. Did this with Hikari at lvl 70 and Temenos lvl 69. Nice!
Glad it helped. 👍
You are a monster. This is all amazing! Thank you very much for your guide. Definitively, you're incredible.
I'm glad you found it helpful.
You are the man , i tried so many things and this worked like a charm , thank you very much
Nice one i'm glad It helped, Congrats on beating the boss. 👍
@@GGGx3 i mean it , thank you for the video and for helping others like myself , i hope you are good in life like you deserve it 👍🏼
Thanks for the video, this was super helpful! Definitely would have never beat this final boss without it. It took quite a lot of setup for me personally (needing a lot of the gear, then grinding my Tem and Hikari up to 85 or so). It was also a little tricky if Hikari didn't naturally fall behind Ochette, but alas, after about 3 tries I finally got it. One note for anyone reading this: The Champ Belt seems to be missable after the epilogue starts since the arena no longer appears to be open. So, that item wont be obtainable, unless I missed something, so be sure to grab it before you start the epilogue! Anyway, thanks again for a super helpful video, I can't imagine how long it took you to plan this all out but it was perfect.
Hi, I'm pleased it helped.
Grats on beating the boss I'm glad you finally got it down.
It took me about 3 weeks to plan it all out and make the video, so it's nice to see it's actually helping people as I found this fight the most challenging in the game.
I pretty much 1 or 2 shot most of the bosses bar this one. 😂
You can get es many champ belts as you want. You have to fight in the arena again and again.
That is correct. 👍@@Marc_Tittmann
Thx buddy, I almost put the game down cause of this, I’m super glad you had our backs on this one, I really appreciate you very much.
Glad It helped, Well done on beating the boss.
Very good guide. Even though my Hikari wasn't strong enough to one shot the first wave of adds, so I had to face an extra set with the elemental weaknesses. Wasn't too bad with combining the other guide's strategy on using Dreadwing for that part. Phase 2 was cake after all that. Hikari was 82 and Temenos was only 76
Glad it helped.
Grats on beating the boss.
This is an excellent guide on how to beat galdera. Temenos and Hikari were definitely op with this setup
Thanks, I'm glad you found it useful.
Yeah they are both pretty powerful with this particular build. 😃
This helped me so much. I couldn't for the life of me beat this guy. Thank you!!
Nice one, I'm glad it helped you out and congratulations on beating the boss. 👍
Thank you! I tried another guide that did not work for me at all, this one worked first try with my Hikari and Temenos in the low 70s 🥳
Nice one, Grats on finally beating it.
It's good to know it can be defeated with the main damage dealing characters 70 plus.
I should have asked people to list their level numbers in the comments.
Thank you, but I would like to point out a few things
1) heal up, and fill up your latent energy for all 8 character
2) learn all the skill on secondary job as mention in the video. My throne first time equip with cleric, and I went into the fight with no cleric skill 😂
3) and also finish temenos story as you need his ex skill. I didn't finish mine and couldnt find the skill when I needed it. Silly me😂😂😂😂😂
Thanks so much bro! I've been trying to beat this boss for days finally got the plat! 🤣👍
Congratulations on beating it, I'm glad you got the platinum. 👍
Worked like a charm, thank you for spending the time and uploading this 👍
Amazing strategy! It worked on my first try. Thank you so much!
Glad it helped.
Congratulations of beating it.
This guide worked like a charm. Thanks so much!
Great to hear, Well done on beating this annoying boss lol.
Thank you SO MUCH! The only guide that actually helped me beat this boss!!
Glad to hear it helped you out.
Well done on beating it.
Thanks, Galdera in the first game was truly awful and took me hours but this went much faster.
Glad you managed to beat it. 👍
Worked a treat. Thank you!
Great to hear.
Well done on defeating the boss.
OMG thank you so much.
You totally deserve more views on this as this actually just works.
I have tried for weeks to beat this boss and followed all the guides I could find on TH-cam and none of them worked for me.
On my second try with your guide I beat it (I messed up on the first go )
After so many goes finally. 😀
You're welcome, I'm glad it helped you out. 👍
Finally defeated this boss. It works! Took me about 4 attempts and that's because I'm not following instructions hehe..Thanks a lot!
I'm pleased you finally managed to beat it.
Man, best tutorial ever! Thank you very much! Finally i was able to beat this beast
You're welcome, I'm glad it helped.
Well done on beating the boss. 👍
Thank you ❤❤❤❤ iv been struggling for ages on the 2nd part. Done it 1st time with this strategy 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Glad it helped.
Well done on beating it. 😃👍
Thank you so much! This was an amazing guide!
I'm glad it was helpful for you.
Thanks for the easy to follow guide!
wow thank you, That's very kind of you to do that and it's much appreciated.
I'm glad you found the guide helpful, well done on beating the boss. 😃👍
This video was just perfect! Thank you so much for the excellent detailed explanation and also making it so easy to follow!
You are welcome, I'm glad it helped.
This video really saved my jerky. Thanks!
With some minor deviations on Phase 1, but a smooth Phase 2
Nice one, I'm glad you beat it. 👍
Perfect guide! Thank you!
Glad it helped. 👍
Grazie grazie veramente infinitamente non saprai sicuramente la mia lingua ma ti ringrazio dal profondo del cuore
You're welcome.
Thank you so much. Your guide is the best . It help me a lot and now I can get 100% trophy
Glad it worked for you.
This worked for me exactly like in the video without needing any extra turns with a level 70 temenos, and a level 78 hikari. I think it might work with lower levels even.
Thank you for this guide, the fact it works regardless of turn order or any other RNG element is amazing.
Glad it worked for you and thanks for posting your Characters levels. 👍
I raised my party up to lvl 79, Hikari lvl 84, Temenos lvl 87
First phase went exactly as planned following the video. Second phase…oh man I was sweating.
Temenos did NOT kill all limbs first time he used Sacred Effulgence, as the head stayed alive. I used Throne’s Latent power and gave Temenos the 2nd Forbidden Elixer, and then used Aeber’s Reckoning to ensure the Abyssal Maw’s defeat, as it was in the red, and it worked!
After the turn ended, the protection on Galdera was lifted and I was able to pull off the 2nd Sacred Effulgence!! Osvald was able to go before that, so for full assurance, I had him give Temenos an item (Crème de Brûlée I think) that refilled SP (even though it was full already) and added elemental attack buff. When Temenos used the move, it killed him!!
Thank you SOOO very much for this tutorial! I can rest easy now.
Nice one i'm glad you finally managed to beat it. 👍👏
