Weakness
Fire and Break
The Chromatic Moissonneuse will only use two attacks, a six-hit combo and a three-hit combo. While that doesn’t sound troubling on paper, the attacks are difficult to parry, and it hits very hard after raising its attack power. Both combination attacks are capable of knocking out a single party member in one turn. The three-hit combination is easier to parry, so focus on trying to dodge the six-hitter and practice against the three hits if you’re having trouble timing the parries.
The key to defeating the Chromatic Moissonneuse is to raise its break bar and stun it for extra damage. It is weak to fire, so inflicting Burn and marking it for extra damage will raise the break bar even faster.
