How To Defeat Orthros in Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster
Orthrosis one of the main bosses in the adventure, and players will face itat the end of Chapter 1, once players have taken the Rainbow Thread back to receive the Vestal Garments. With the ceremonial garb back in the power of Agnès, the group needs to return to the Wind Crystal Temple. Cross the hallway past the Red Adventurer to enter the Crystal Room and face the boss. This two-headed dog has several annoying attacks, so here’s a rundown on its mechanics:
When one of the heads of Orthros is defeated, the remaining one will become ‘enraged,’ unleashing a quick succession of attacks that can wipe out the party. To prevent this, kill both heads at the same time.
The secret to beating Orthros is to take things one turn at a time, and only use Brave when buffing the party, or healing after a wave of attacks. Players need to have at least one White Mage and one Black Mage in the party. Follow this strategy to beat Orthros with ease:
Players can use the Thief class to steal some interesting goodies from each of the heads. The blue head has anAntarctic Windand aPotion, while the orange head drops aBomb Fragmentand anEther.
Keep working step by step, and don’t rush using Brave x4 or there will be hell to pay since Orthros will take this chance to destroy either the White or the Black mage, making the whole strategy crumble.
