This guide will provide an in-depth look at strategies, preparations, and tactics to defeat Bellanoir Libero, including its Ultra version.

Understanding Bellanoir Libero

Bellanoir Libero is a Dark-type Pal that shifts to an Ice-type when its health drops below 10%. This transformation significantly alters the dynamics of the battle, requiring players to adapt their strategies mid-fight.

• Drops: Huge Dark Egg, Multiclimate Undershirt+2, Stout Fruit (Legendary), Ancient Civilization Cores, Bellanoir Libero (Ultra) Slab

Preparation

1. Team Composition

To counter Bellanoir Libero effectively, you need a well-balanced team of Pals. Here are some recommended Pals and their roles:

• Jormuntide Ignis: A Pal with both Dragon and Fire attacks, effective in both Dark and Ice phases.
• Blazehowl Noct: Fire/Dark type, useful for sustained damage.
• Astegon: Dragon/Dark type, provides versatility.
• Jetragon: Effective in the Dark phase.
• Ragnahawk or Pyrin: Useful mounts that apply fire damage during the Ice phase.

2. Stat Allocation and Gear

• Stat Points: Reallocate your stat points to maximize attack power. Use potions to reset and redistribute points if necessary.
• Accessories: Equip two attack pendants to boost your damage output.
• Weapons: Legendary rocket launchers and assault rifles are highly effective. Ensure you have these weapons upgraded and ready for the fight.

3. Consumables

• Food Buffs: Eat items like the Mozzarina Cheeseburger for attack boosts. Place omelets in your feedbox for a 10% extra damage buff to your Pals.
• Potions and Healing Items: Stock up on healing items to keep your Pals in fighting shape throughout the battle.

Battle Tactics

Phase 1: Dark Type

1. Initial Assault: Start with your strongest Dark-type counters. Use Pals like Jetragon and Blazehowl Noct to deal significant damage.
2. Positioning: Keep your Pals spread out to avoid area-of-effect attacks from Bellanoir Libero.
3. Disruption: Utilize Pals with abilities to freeze or stun Bellanoir Libero, buying time for your main attackers to deal damage.

Phase 2: Ice Type (Below 10% HP)

1. Switch Pals: As soon as Bellanoir Libero’s health drops below 10%, switch to Fire-type Pals like Jormuntide Ignis and Ragnahawk.
2. Mount Strategy: Ride Pals like Ragnahawk or Pyrin to apply fire damage while staying mobile and avoiding attacks.
3. Sustained Damage: Use Pals with sustained damage abilities, like Blazehowl Noct’s Nightmare Bloom, to continuously chip away at Bellanoir Libero’s health.

Advanced Strategies

1. Condensing and Breeding

• Condense Pals: Max condense your Pals to increase their stats and effectiveness in battle. Focus on high-attack Pals for maximum damage output.
• Breeding: Breed Pals to achieve optimal IVs (Individual Values). This can significantly enhance their performance in battle.

2. Creative Methods

• Campfire Strategy: A unique method involves using a campfire to inflict burn damage over time. This strategy, while unconventional, can be effective in dealing continuous damage without risking your Pals.
• Cheese Tactics: Some players use cheese tactics, such as exploiting terrain or AI behavior, to gain an advantage. While not the most honorable approach, it can be a last resort if you’re struggling.

Battle Strategy

• Dodge and Weave: Prioritize dodging Libero’s attacks to avoid damage.
• Utilize Pals: Effectively deploy your Pals to assist in the battle.
• Phase Adaptation: Be prepared to switch Pals when Libero changes its type.
• Focus Fire: Concentrate your attacks on Libero to weaken it quickly.
• Revive Pals: Keep your Pals alive by using revive items when necessary.

Defeating Bellanoir Libero Ultra

The Ultra version of Bellanoir Libero is even more challenging, with double the HP and enhanced abilities. Here are some additional tips:

1. Farm High-Level Pals: Focus on farming and condensing high-level Pals like Jormuntide Ignis and Blazehowl Noct.
2. Stat-Boosting Food: Cook and consume stat-boosting food before the battle to maximize your Pals’ effectiveness.
3. Stay Mobile: Use mounts like Ragnahawk to stay mobile and avoid Bellanoir Libero’s powerful attacks.
4. Swap Pals: Keep your Palbox nearby to swap out weakened Pals for fresh ones during the fight.
