Chapter bosses are called Crest Guardians, and defeating them raises Musashi's level cap. Many bosses are designed to be easier to overcome using the Scroll power obtained in that chapter. Charge its gauge before combat so that it is ready for your opening move.
- ▸ Check that chapter's Scroll effect and activation method before the boss
- ▸ The Chapter 1 boss is Steam Knight, a weapon of the Thirstquencher Empire
- ▸ Defeating the boss raises the level cap, allowing further growth in the next chapter
Bosses often follow set patterns, so the basic approach is to counterattack between their attacks. Depending on the situation, absorbed abilities can help adjust distance or exploit weaknesses. If you are taking too many hits, stop forcing attacks and prioritize evasion and healing.
- ▸ Watch attack windups, evade, then strike during openings
- ▸ Assimilated abilities may give you an advantage in distance or status
- ▸ If healing or BP is nearly exhausted, stop attacking and recover
