How to defeat Flan Prince, Muddy Murder in FF16
The key to defeating Muddy Murder is to dodge all its attacks and perform a counterattack. Muddy Murder uses elemental primary attacks like fire, lightning, ice, earth, and wind. All these attacks have a wide range, so they need to be dodged precisely.
Attacks like wind tend to limit your movement by a tornado, so keep your distance, or you can lose your health. After a while, Muddy Murder in Final Fantasy 16 will start to use physical attacks such as throwing multiple hands and jumping at you.
Keep dodging its attacks and wait for an opening to perform mighty combos. After you deal a significant amount of damage, it will begin to use multiple spells simultaneously. In this situation, keep your distance because it will give you more time to dodge these attacks.
It will increase its hand size and try to smash you with these oversized hands, so make sure to dodge it. Whenever Muddy Murder uses this attack in FF16, it leaves it open to an attack. Take this opportunity to dodge or leap smash attacks and perform powerful combos and Eikonic strikes.
