Battle Strategies
The key to beating Captain Lotus-Vision is mastering the dodge-and-attack rhythm. Use Cloud Step and Immobilize spells to deal damage while avoiding projectiles. When things get hectic use Azure Dust or Red Tides transformations to mitigate damage.
Keep an eye on the purple crystal on the boss’s staff. It’ll flash before firing lasers giving you a brief window to dodge. As the fight progresses more lasers will appear from different angles making evasion trickier.
Around 75% health loss Captain Lotus-Vision will teleport to the center and start a challenging attack sequence. Multiple lasers will appear along with hard-to-see projectiles. Stay alert and use your Cloud Step decoy to draw fire if needed.
In the later phase, the boss will teleport more frequently. Be ready to dodge lasers as it reappears. It may also create explosions that follow you so keep moving.
When you see an opening use Immobilize to lock the boss in place and unleash heavy attacks. Build up your Focus meter with light combos and save it for moments when Captain Lotus-Vision is vulnerable.
