Strategy[edit]

The Swagman should be taken out first because of his ability to throw Coagulant, which can confuse one party member. He can also attack everyone with its Stone's Throw. He can also be taken out of action easily by putting him to sleep with Maribel's Snooze or using a Snooze stick on him. If the player managed to get their hands on a Lucida shard at the Precipice Pass, one can give him a taste of his own medicine and send him into confusion, as well, since he has no resistance against it.
