Octopath COTC Glossom fight strategy (7 min - 11 turns)!
2Beating Octopath COTC Glossom arena fight in 11 turns consistently.
THIS IS NOT A F2P STRATEGY. I am using the most powerful version of what I got.
This is a more efficient version of the 14 turn fight here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsXfUmTumjM
In summary, by adding Agnès as the main healer, Theo is free to break shields and deal damage. If you don't have Agnes you may want to stick to the 10min version.
I chose to add only 1 fight and break it down. If you would like me to post multiple fights I can do that too - leave a comment.
If Primrose dies turn 2, reset - she may get focused (should be fine with awakening III).
The strategy of the first half of the fight is to bring Glossom's shields down fast so we break everyone together.
Then we deal with the ads and finally with Glossom on his second break, without giving him a chance to enter his phase that makes him vulnerable only to dark.
0:00 Party and items
0:28 Phase one: breaking Glossom and the ads together (turn 1 to 4)
2:52 Phase two: killing the ads (turn 5 to 8)
5:19 Phase three: finishing Glossom (turn 9 to 11)
Party:
Agnès / Lynette
Primrose / Wingate
Fiore / Theo
Odette / Tressa
Highlights:
- Dragon's scarf IV and a good magic boost item on Primrose. Odette or Sofia awakening IV's work well. Wingate gives her an extra oomph
- Agnes gets the role of doing the healing and frees up Theo for shield breaking + dmg
- Edea's awakening IV item is awesome for Tressa. Phys atk otherwise (in sidestep we trust)
- Fiore gets physical items
- Odette gets her awakening IV (or Sofia's) or good magic items. There's quite some wiggle room to kill the ads.
- Give Lynette some HP items
- Theo gets a good atk item and Dragon's scarf III (or Ebony's Dragon Scarf)
