Leogron was one of the few bosses inMetaphor: ReFantaziothat truly gave us a run for our money. It may be tied a simple side quest (Peak Curiosity), but little did we know that the dungeon and its inhabitants were far overleveled compared to us. If you pick the quest up immediately on August 19, you will be met with a lot of resistance as most of these enemies are ten or twenty levels above your own at the time. Fortunately, we love a good challenge.

Boss Fight
There are a couple of means of neutralizing Leogron, but the easiest is having both a Magic Knight and a Magic Seeker in your party. There is a Synthesis skill calledMagic Guardwhich “Raises a barrier that nullifies one elemental attack for all allies in caster’s row.” What this means is that the devastatingBlizzaton(which makes an awful noise every time it’s cast) and the Wind-based Chimera King’s Wing will be negated almost entirely.
Soul Screamwill trigger whenever there’s a player in the front row, granting the oversized bird four extra actions in his turn. This is devastating, which means he can get off an incredible number of casts before his turn ends, so much so that it could leave you on the ground in a matter of seconds. Because of this, we suggest placing your entire party in the back row.
Due to this, we also suggest bringing a caster party. It will be draining on your mana pool, but buffing your allies and taking advantage of Leogron’sfire weaknessesbecomes key. The Magic Knight will aid in this along with healing withMediline.
If you take this approach, it will take a considerable amount of time (about ten minutes for us) because of the attack reduction on Leogron’s Chimera’s Wing attack, but facing his Soul Cry is one of the biggest pains of this fight, especially if you’re underleveled.
