You’ll initially come across Lala Barina in the Chapter 1-3, Forest Findings. From then on, this beast will roam about in the Forest and Wyveria regions or be featured as a boss in the Optional Quests. Before you set off on this endeavor, ensure you eat a meal to gain extra health and stamina.

Lala Barina weaknesses and preparations

To better prepare yourself for the battle, here’s a list of suitable weaknesses, Status Effects, and items:

  • Elemental Attack Weakness: Fire
  • Effective Status Effects:
    • Poison: Moderately effective
    • Sleep: Moderately effective
    • Paralysis: Little damage
    • Blastblight: Moderately effective
    • Stun: Most effective
    • Exhaust: Moderately effective
  • Effective Items:
    • Fire-based weapons
    • Flash Pods
    • Shock Traps
    • Pitfall Traps

Stunning works best with the Lala Barina, so you can bring a trap to trounce the creature. However, I suggest avoiding the Sonic Bomb since it won’t really do you much good in this fight.

All Lala Barina movesets

Lala Bari💖na has three moves you need to lo𓃲ok out for:

  • Lala Barina’s rose unleashes red-colored elements that inflict paralysis
  • Deals a deadly strike with its stinger
  • Swings around to emit more paralysis attacks

Do your best to avoid its paralysis attacks, which will float around the battlefield when it displays its rose. Getting hit by it once or twice is okay, but it’ll eventually take a toll with enough strikes. Those in a paralysis state can shake it off by quickly moving their character around for a few seconds.

Luckily, avoiding Lala Barina’s attack is pretty easy since its movements are relatively slow. That’ll give you time to strike the weak spots on its leg, face, and claws. You can also go from behind its body if you don’t want to get too close to its face. Take advantage of any wounds while in Focus Mode, dealing a hefty amount of damage.

The Lala Barina’s Tail, aka the rose, is the creature’s most significant weak point. Nevertheless, it’ll be pretty challenging to target, especially when it spouts out its paralytic effects.
