Abzu Boss Strategy
Aim for Abzu’s horns with Firaga until he goes into the Pressured state, giving you time to unload on him while he is unable to retaliate.
You will want to summon Ifrit as soon as the summon gauge is full. Focus on Abzu’s horns and pummel him with attacks like Radiant Plume and Crimson Dive.
When Abzu manages to pounce and bind any of your allies, attack him until he gets off of them. You can avoid his pounce move by dodging to the side as well.
Stay on the move to avoid his poison pools or use Antidotes to cure yourself of poison.
Be sure to have Aerith (or any other character) ready with healing magic, especially during the second phase of the fight. Begin sprinting to the other side of the battlefield away from Abzu when it clings to the wall as it will use its Backwater Blast attack.
