At end of each chapter in Harvestella, there will be a boss fight where players have to use every trick in the book to beat it. Chapter 3A takes travelers to Nemea Village, where Asyl and Istina will be introduced. Upon deciding to head to Heaven's Egg to investigate the disappearance of Tiella, a Dragon will be waiting at the end of the dungeon.

The boss has a variety of attacks that can cause heavy damage. But not to worry, because of its large size, it is slower and more predictable than the other bosses.

How To Beat The Dragon In Harvestella

The Dragon is considered an easy opponent to defeat, as long as players know when to strike. The boss area is composed of multiple platforms that travelers can easily teleport between them.

There's a big square in the middle and four small ones on each side of the square. The fight will begin on the middle platform where two Divine Creatures will respawn. Defeat them and run to the Dragon to land a few hits. Try to aim for a Break, as it will increase the damage. After a while, the boss will fly to another platform. Follow it, defeat the Divine Creatures, continue hitting the Dragon, and repeat.

Once the monster’s health is down to half, it’ll fly up in the sky and red beams will appear in the form of an X on the platform. Move away from them immediately and stay in the untouched area to avoid getting hit.

Another deadly hit done in midair is when all platforms are marked by moving red lines except for one. Quickly run to the unmarked platform, as the Dragon is about to unleash a powerful strike that causes heavy damage. After that, keep following the boss from one platform to another while avoiding the deadly attacks until the Dragon is dead.

There are a couple of tips and tricks to help travelers beat the dragon in Harvestella with minimal damage:

  1. Even though the Dragon will be within arm's reach, special attacks can’t be executed. As a result, choose a Job with long-range special skills like Mage.
  2. Characters like Istina will be a great addition to the Party since she inflicts a lot of damage.
  3. Don’t ignore the Divine Creatures and go directly to the Dragon, as the monsters will attack and cause unnecessary harm.
  4. Cook a couple of meals in Harvestella at home that increase HP and Stamina before entering the boss area.
  5. Use the Fermenting Barrel to create Juices that restore HP.
  6. Upgrading players’ and other party members’ weapon is a crucial step toward better damage.
  7. If the Dragon still has a lot of health and there are no more resources, use the Return Bell in Harvestella to go home and pack the necessary items.
  8. Try to avoid death as much as possible because Cres is not forgiving with the expenses fees.

Harvestella is now available on PC and Nintendo Switch.
