Hell's Rider Summary

Hell's Rider is a demon-type boss that hits harder than it looks for its early level. It's weak to ice and light, so spells and attacks that use those elements are the best way to damage and stagger it! Immune to poison, confusion, petrification, charm, and instant death, using status ailment attacks will not work on it.

How to Beat Hell's Rider

[1] Focus on the Dark Skeleton First.

Dark Skeleton

Take out the Dark Skeleton first to reduce the damage the party will take and allow the party to get more turns. Use White Magic / Light Magic to exploit the element weakness of Dark Skeleton.

[2] Weak to Ice and Light Elements.

Weak to Ice

Use Ice and Light attack elements to take advantage of the Boss weakness. Hitting it with these elements will deal extra damage and stagger, making the fight much easier.

[3] Equip Tronn and Leah.

Tronn and Leah

Equip Tronn and Leah as Rain and Lasswell's vision, as it will make it easier to defeat the boss fight. Tronn's Blizzard Skill is a huge help in the boss fight, and if the party makes a lot of mistakes, Leah's Defensive Skill will keep everyone alive.

[4] Use Hibernal Fury.

Hibernal Fury

Use Hibernal Fury whenever it is available, as it will deal a lot of damage to Hell's Rider. Make it a priority to use it, as it can quickly turn the tide of the fight and finish the battle quickly.
