UnlocksThe Final Confrontation; first-clear materials

This battle is one large brawl instead of an outpost run. You win by emptying the Demon King’s army gauge, the red bar on the right side of the screen, which draws out the last Archfiend, Grimgibdo, for the final fight. The reward is a weapon and first-clear materials, so the whole battle comes down to the fight itself.

Before you start

Aim for Lv 54. Your party is set for you as Calamo, the Knight Construct, Quino and Lago, so spend your preparation on rations and on Zonai devices. Bombs help against Grimgibdo, and elemental attacks matter in the second half. See Zonai devices if you need a refresher.

Enemy army gauge

Fight through the field and defeat enemies until the red bar is empty; the objective reads “Defeat the hordes of monsters”. Waves of the Demon King’s army roll in one after another, and your allies on the field, such as Calamo, the Knight Construct, Quino and Lago, fight alongside Hylian soldiers. Ignore the small fry where you can. Powerful enemies appear as named bars and markers on the minimap, and each one you take down removes a large chunk of the army’s health, so go after those first. They come in this order: a Blue Hinox, a Moblin, a Boss Bokoblin, a Blue Boss Bokoblin, a Black Moblin and finally a Lynel.

Grimgibdo boss fight

Grimgibdo

Break the first weak-point gauge

When the army bar falls to about 10%, Grimgibdo appears. Before you attack freely, deplete its first weak-point gauge, either with Bombs or by staggering it with counters.

Skeletal form

Once its sand coating is destroyed, Grimgibdo turns skeletal and is weak to every element, so switch to elemental attacks. It is also more agile once it is grounded and can chain dangerous attacks back to back, so be careful when it lands. Defeating it ends the battle.
