BOSS: Captain Dolce, First Lieutenant, Second Lieutenant (5)

Master the challenging boss fight against Captain Dolce, First Lieutenant, and Second Lieutenant in Eternal Strands. Learn their attacks, weaknesses, and the best party setup to secure victory and valuable rewards.

Stats / Weaknesses:

• Captain Dolce HP: 181,050 (Recommended Level: 25)
• First Lieutenant HP: 27,440
• Second Lieutenant HP: 32,920
• All enemies have similar attacks to their previous encounter, but deal significantly more damage (around 1000 per hit).
• Lieutenants can resurrect each other.

Phases:

1. Phase 1: Defeat the Lieutenants
   Focus your strongest characters on taking down the First and Second Lieutenants. They are more dangerous than before and can revive each other, so prioritize eliminating them quickly.
2. Phase 2: Defeat Captain Dolce
   Once the lieutenants are down, shift all your attention to Captain Dolce.

Strategy:

• Item Setup: Make sure your Item Set is stocked with Snowpuff Cookies, Floral Extracts, and Angel Trumpets/Goddess Bouquets.
• Party Composition: Frederic and Salsa are essential. For the final spot, either Polka or Beat can be used, though they are less critical than the others.
• Target Priority: Always take out the two lieutenants first. They pose a significant threat due to their damage output and resurrection ability.
• Healing and Light/Dark: If Polka is in your party, have her stay in the light and use Earth Heal or Orange Glow. If Polka is not present, Frederic will need to alternate between healing and attacking. The battlefield has random patches of sunlight; you'll need to move your characters into these areas to benefit from light-based healing and buffs. There's no fixed pattern for the light, so be observant.
• General Approach: This battle is tough, but remember that you've overcome similar challenges before. Stay focused, manage your party's positioning, and you can win.
• Reward: Upon victory, your party will receive a Pocket Watch and Pirate's Paper 2.
