How to Beat Lacerta in Beast of Reincarnation
Lacerta is weak to Lightning. Parry its Swimming Jump, Bite and Tail Swipe; dodge the red-glowing Mud Pool and Purple Glob.
Short answer
To beat Lacerta, equip Lightning Bloom Arts and a Bind chance, use Thunderwave Sword and lightning arrows, parry its telegraphed melee attacks to build FP, and dodge red-glint Mud Pool and Purple Glob. When it submerges, don't waste attacks; fire arrows from safe distance until it resurfaces.
What is Lacerta’s elemental weakness?
Lacerta is weak to Lightning. Use Koo’s Lightning Bloom Arts and Lightning-based attacks to fill the stagger gauge faster.
What gear should you use against Lacerta?
| Slot | Recommended item | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Weapon | Thunderwave Sword | Lightning effect |
| Armor | Thick Cuirass | Improved defenses |
| Ranged | Lightning Bolts and Lightning Arrows | Ranged lightning options |
Which of Lacerta’s attacks can you parry?
Parrying works on every boss in the game, including Lacerta. These three melee moves are parryable and leave a large punish window afterwards:
| Move | Counter | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Swimming Jump | Parry | Large punish window afterwards |
| Bite Attack (three hits) | Parry | Large punish window afterwards |
| Tail Swipe | Parry | Large punish window afterwards |
Which of Lacerta’s attacks should you dodge instead of parrying?
Mud Pool and Purple Glob both glow red. Unparryable attacks show a red glint during the wind-up animation, so when you see the red flash, dodge instead of guarding. For both moves, dodge or run — do not attempt to parry. A perfect dodge against an unparryable attack opens a counter window.
How does binding help you beat Lacerta?
Equip a Bloom Art and Mod for Koo with a chance to Bind. Binding Lacerta incapacitates it and opens a free damage window.
What should you do when Lacerta submerges?
Lacerta often swims away before certain attacks. Fire arrows from a safe distance then, but it cannot be damaged while submerged, so do not waste attacks until it resurfaces.
What level should you be for the Lacerta fights?
Lacerta is fought twice at different locations within the same zone. The first encounter is reported around level 13, and the second is reported around level 16.
How do you generate Florescence Points with parries in this fight?
Successful parries are the main source of Koo’s Florescence Points (FP), which power his Bloom Arts. Parry into FP into Bloom Art is the rhythmic backbone of every encounter, so landing parry timing is central to keeping your offense up.
