Flash Pods Only Work 4 Times With AT Teostra

The Arch Tempered Teostra can only be brought down by Flash Pods by up to 4 times. Make sure to keep count and use it sparingly. The best time to use Flash Pods is during its Supernova move or to keep it in the area.

Run Away Or Flash Pod Teostra During Supernova

When the AT Teostra flies up and seems to be charging up an attack, it'll be doing the very powerful Supernova move. Run away, use a Farcaster, or toss a Flash Pod in its face to avoid getting hit by huge damage.
