So we get our thunder ancient dragon to play with now. The stages play out just like the other elemental versions: you're stage 5 mid-boss, stage 9 mini-boss, and the boss itself at the end.
Notable stuff about the boss:
- Has high defense. Around 20k. Defensive ruin or Armor Breaker should be employed. Poison attacks are an alternate.
- Fairly high HP. Not Wales high, but not Prothero low.
- Boss hits for 16260 damage, CD2. So a double 50% lightning resist can make this a lot more reasonable to handle, adding to the fact that it's CD2.
- Skills listed at the bottom of this post
UPDATE: The boss was fixed so now it has skills :P
- Triple Attack: Self-explanatory; attack 3 times all at once for 19512 damage.
- Wrath of Vulcan: Seals fire cards for 5 turns.
Went with a defensive setup for top level. Really makes all lightning damage a joke, so it's mainly the Ifrit and Jotunn that you need to worry about. The boss has about 25k defense, and the damage you see there is a pestilence tick, so while his defense isn't crazy high, just breaking it isn't enough. Occasionally I could break it with a lucky long combo chain, but pestilence is more reliable and predictable. If you have Raphael this could go a bit smoother. Hesperides/Elf would work too if you can make good combos.
