Quick win — 30 secondsRoll up around level 44 with one Grass Pal (Lyleen does the job) and a ranged weapon. Lean on that weakness, keep moving, and chip it from range. Want it on your team? Drop it under ~20% HP, then chain spheres.
⚠️
Watch outDon't get greedy. Menasting's Ground/Dark attacks hit harder than they look, and it punishes you for standing still.

Strategy

How to Beat Menasting

Best counters

Menasting is Ground + Dark, so lead with Grass damage and you'll carve through its health bar fast. Reliable picks: Lyleen, Mossanda. Pack a bow or firearm too — poking from outside its attack range beats trading hits up close.

Fight plan

  1. Gear and level check. Be around level 44+ with a ranged weapon, and a stack of decent spheres if you want to catch it.
  2. Exploit the weakness. Send in your Grass Pal and keep its skills on cooldown — that's where the real damage comes from.
  3. Stay mobile. Kite in a wide circle, dodge the wind-ups, and never get cornered against the terrain.
  4. Capture or finish. For the catch, chip it under ~20% HP then chain spheres during recovery windows. Just farming? Delete it — it respawns on the usual timer.
