Players will encounter a lot of different bosses in "Metaphor: ReFantazio," including Undead Grius, who was originally a reliable veteran soldier who fell in battle.
The character died after failing to assassinate Louis at the Royal Funeral and now uses his battle skills and some new abilities against you and your party. Undead Grius is one of the more challenging bosses in the game and will give players a run for their money.
This guide teaches players the basics of the Undead Grius boss fight and what they can do to prepare for it accordingly. There are also some tips and tricks that help you out with the fight itself and what you should be doing throughout the battle.
Preparing for Undead Grius
Before you even go to fight the boss, there are some things you should prepare in order to give you the best chance of coming out victorious. When it comes to Archetypes, it is recommended to have the Protagonist as Seeker, Strohl as Warrior, and Hulkenberg as Knight, according to Game Rant.
It is also important to note that Hulkenberg will awaken to her Archetype right before the boss battle itself, which is arguably the most important to have. There are two main strategies to taking down Undead Grius: either using the Protagonist as the main damage dealer or making use of Strohl's Tarukaja, which is learned at level four.

Fighting Undead Grius
The main thing you should keep in mind during the boss battle with Undead Grius is to make use of Hulkenerg's new Jump Thrust Synthesis skill. This will draw the boss' attention to her, giving your other characters a chance to dish out more damage.
The newly unlocked skill allows you to mix the powers of two party members' Archetypes for powerful attacks at the cost of an extra Turn Icon. The good thing about Jump Thrust is that it is a strong move that also lowers the target's Defense every time it hits, Screen Rant said.
Other Things To Know
Some other information that could be useful to know in fighting Undead Grius is that the boss deals around 50 to 70 damage with his powerful area-of-effect attack. He can also follow it up with a melee strike targeted at a character in your party.
It is recommended to keep your healing items and spells ready to top up any character who loses significant amounts of health. Be aware that when you reduce the boss to half HP, he will start using Mocking Phantasm, which is also a single-target attack.
The rewards for beating this boss in "Metaphor: ReFantazio" is 263 experience points, 158 Archetype experience points, 1,800 MAG, and 2,000 Money, according to Sportskeeda.
