DQXI Tentacular boss fight, with stronger enemies enabled. (Skip to the end for proof if you don’t believe me for whatever reason)

I’m currently attempting to fine tune a consistent strategy against Dora which doesn’t involve RNG luck or grinding, which I will upload when I’m happy with it!

I found this fight a bit of a nuisance and had a cheeky look for vids of it and saw very few (at the time, probably a hundred by now), so I figured I’d upload this on the off-chance it could help someone out there with strats.

This is not well optimised and I could have been quicker and more aggressive at times for sure, but the general strategy was to keep buffs up consistently alongside trying to keep Tentacular debuffed whenever I had chance to do so. Dazzle in particular is very powerful here, as it all but negates his AOE slam attack, leaving only his breath attack as a major threat. Sylvando’s Hustle Dance is also extremely powerful in this fight, allowing you to heal everyone rapidly should you be hit by a couple of AOE attacks in a row.

I focus the tentacles first as he only regenerates them a couple of times, making the fight a lot easier once they’re dealt with.

If anyone has any cool ideas or strategies I didn’t use, let me know! I’m always happy to learn new things :D
