Legiana Can Apply Iceblight Status Effect
When the Legiana covers its body in ice, it will unleash an attack that can cause Iceblight. When you are inflicted with Iceblight, you will use up stamina much faster, making you need to rest more. Be ready to dodge when it winds up for this attack!
Break Its Wings & Poison It To Gain The Advantage
The movements of the Legiana will start to slow down once its wings are broken or when the poison status effect is applied to it. Make it a priority to break its wings or poison it, to gain the advantage!
