Before confronting the Kraken in the game, it is very important to optimize your party setup first so that you can defeat the monster easily. Also, remember to equip necessary items and skills to the Ring menu as these will be your only options during the fight.

The Kraken is weak to fire element, making Flame Saber an invaluable skill in this battle. Keep it active on Val throughout the battle.

Unlike the previous boss, which is the Mantis Ant, the Kraken stays mostly still, positioned at the back of the boat. Its tentacles serve as weak points, so make sure you attack them for critical hits. Watch for these key attack patterns:

Tentacle SlamsDodge the red-marked areas on the ship’s deck.
Ship TiltingAdjust positioning to avoid being pushed away.
Ink Spewing Reduces visibility but deals minimal damage.
Water Torrent and Bubble Stream Avoid by staying near the tentacles.
Tezla SummonsDefeat these smaller enemies to prevent overwhelming situations.

To defeat the Kraken, focus on attacking its tentacles for maximum damage. You can also try to employ the Luna Globe to slow the Kraken’s movements. Aim the Sylphid Boomerang at the tentacles for consistent damage, and jump to dodge wide-sweeping tentacle attacks.

As the battle progresses the Kraken’s attacks become more frequent and intense. Stay alert and adapt strategies accordingly.
