Stage 20: Miss Typhon

Video Guide

Note

This guide assumes that you have read the Basics & Spell Recommendations page and have the baseline spells recommended there.

  • Fire filler spell, such as Bomb Toss
  • Final Sting
  • Whistle
  • Moon Flute
  • Off-guard

Required Spells

  • Diamondback

Act 1

In Act 1 we need to defeat a Typhon. This isn’t too bad and mostly involved dodging Fireballs. Eventually Typhon will cast Snort followed by three unavoidable Fireball casts. It is possible to heal through these very quickly, but it is much easier to just use Diamondback when the Snort cast starts.

Act 2

In Act 2 we need to defeat Ultros. We just need to dodge some line AOEs and interrupt Imp Song with Flying Sardine.

Act 3

In Act 3 we need to fight Typhon and Ultros at the same time. They do the same mechanics as before, but now Ultros will also spawn four tentacles that make things even more chaotic. If you have the recommended spells above, you can cheese Act 3 and get an achievement.

Achievement Info

The achievement “Octopath Traveler” is earned by completing this stage while earning the Trouble with Tentacles feat. This is accomplished by completing the stage without killing any Ultros tentacles. This sounds difficult but it’s actually really easy. If we use a fully buffed Final Sting combo on Typhon in Act 3, he will die immediately and we get the achievement. This is significantly easier than doing the stage the normal way and dealing with the tentacles, so I recommend just doing this.

If you are failing to kill Typhon with the Final Sting combo I can almost guarantee you have Mighty Guard on or something. Every patch someone says it doesn’t work anymore, but it still does. If it’s not working for you, that means you are doing something wrong.
