Take Countermeasures For Poison
Chameleos would often attack with poison, so make sure to take countermeasures by bringing antidotes and herbal medicine, and by using the Negate Poison skill. Doing this will make the fight easier to manage.
Prepare Against Fatigue
If you get hit by its mist breath, you will get fatigued and stamina will be reduced to minimum levels. Make sure to bring energy drinks!
Break Its Head For Better Visibility
If you break its head, its ability to camouflage is reduced and you'll start to see its outline. Also, if you break its tail, you'll have it become completely visible.
