Boss: Julius (3)

Weakness: Wind, Slash

You have already fought Julius before, just not alone. Many of his skills are identical to Ludger’s and cause status ailments that will eat away at your HP rather quickly. It is probably best to use a Syrup Bottle to block these ailment rather than dealing with them once they are applied, especially since the Confusion ailment will prevent you from curing it. This fight is about guarding and choosing the right time to dish out some impressive combos by knocking Julius down or juggle him in the air. This is also one of those fights where you’ll want to use your Chromatus, even if you have been avoiding it.

In terms of attacks, Julius fights identical to Ludger and nothing should really surprise you. That being said, when Julius uses Over Limit you will want to run to avoid Time Distortion, which he links into Ritual of Devastation. If this skill connects it will do devastating damage and may leave you at 1 HP, which you can lose before you get a chance to heal due to Julius’ speed.
