Stats / Weaknesses:

• Weakness: Fire
• Resistances: None listed
• Vulnerabilities: None listed

Phases:

1. Phase 1: Grounded Combat
   The Greater Peryton will primarily use physical attacks and some wind-based magic. Stay mobile and dodge its lunges and aerial dives. Miki's fire magic is effective here.
2. Phase 2: Aerial Assault
   The Peryton takes to the air, making it harder to hit with melee attacks. Utilize Fidel's ranged skills or Miki's Signeturgy to damage it. Be prepared to dodge its aerial bombardments.

Strategy:

• Exploit Fire Weakness: Miki's fire-based Signeturgy is highly effective against the Greater Peryton. Prioritize using these spells whenever possible.
• Ranged Attacks: If playing as Fidel, use his ranged skills to chip away at the Peryton's health, especially when it's airborne.
• Mobility is Key: The Greater Peryton has several quick, lunging attacks and aerial dives. Continuously move and dodge to avoid taking heavy damage.
• Party Composition: A balanced party with a mix of melee and ranged attackers, along with a healer, is recommended. Ensure Miki is in your active party to leverage her fire magic.
• Guard and Heal: Don't be afraid to guard against attacks that are difficult to dodge. Keep an eye on your party's HP and use healing items or skills as needed.
