Yuthus, Kogen and Zabi Boss Guide

Master the Yuthus, Kogen, and Zabi boss fight in Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes! Learn the optimal strategy, phase breakdown, and key tactics to overcome this challenging encounter.

Alright, let's tackle the Yuthus, Kogen, and Zabi boss fight in Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes. This one's split into two phases, but honestly, it's pretty manageable if you focus on taking them down in the right order and use the environment to your advantage. Don't sweat it, we'll get through this!

Stats / Weaknesses:

• Yuthus: Highest HP, provides cover for allies.
• Kogen: Main damage dealer, uses Hail of Flails.
• Zabi: Healer, can restore ally HP.

Phases:

1. Phase 1: Focus Fire on Yuthus

   Your first priority here is Yuthus. He's got the most health and acts as a shield for the other two. If you don't take him down first, your attacks on Kogen and Zabi will be significantly weaker. The fastest way to melt him is to have everyone unleash their Rune-Lens attacks, and make sure Nowa and Lian team up for the Hero Combo, Senior & Junior Combo.

   While you're busy with Yuthus, keep an eye on Kogen. He's got an attack called Hail of Flails where he'll toss a bunch of explosives. These deal Area of Effect (AoE) damage, so make sure you've got healing items like Healing Herbs or Incense ready. If you've got Francesca in your party, her Recovery Wave is a lifesaver, but remember she might not get her turn until late in the round. So, if you're in a pinch, don't hesitate to pop a healing item.

2. Phase 2: The Rockfall Gimmick

   Once you defeat one of the bandits, Phase 2 kicks in, and with it, the Rockfall gimmick. If you ignore this, you're looking at 50+ damage to your entire party as rocks come crashing down. To make sure the gimmick works in your favor, you'll want someone with the slowest turn order to trigger it. At this point in the game, that's usually Garr.

   Pro Tip: Have Garr use the gimmick to cause rocks to fall onto the enemies.

   Alternatively, you could try to prevent the enemies from using the gimmick by defeating Kogen first, as he's the only one who can initiate it. However, this can be a tough go because Zabi will constantly be healing him, making the fight drag on. So, we really recommend focusing on Zabi first. That way, you can guarantee the Rockfall gimmick will work for you, as mentioned above.

   Outside of Hail of Flails, there aren't any other super standout attacks to worry about. Just keep your HP topped up throughout the entire battle, because even the basic attacks can start to add up if you're not careful.
