Combining the power of three actions per turn with highly damaging abilities, Greygnarl is a very difficult boss. Not only does he have access to the extremely powerful [[Magic Burst]], but he can also incapacitate your {{Party 9}} members with [[Raging Roar]]. Also noteworthy is his ability to temporarily raise his {{Attack}}, {{Defense}}, and {{Agility}}, as well as preventing the {{Party 9}} from matching his stat boosts by casting [[Disruptive Wave]]. Luckily, unlike members of the [[??? Family]] who have no weapon weaknesses, Greygnarl can be hit for extra damage by [[sword]]s and the powerful [[Dragon Slash]]. | ||
