Dispen Perry

Move around and lure the boss under the spot of large objects above the battleground. Use Kasane’s Psychokinesis ability to drop these objects to break the barrel attached to the boss. When Dispen Perry is hit, it will be stunned for a while and be under Soaked status. Use the SAS to access Shiden’s Electrokinesis to deal more damage. Electricity synergize with the Soaked status so it may inflict a bonus shocked status.
