    Alphas are bigger and stronger, and they come back after a while. Weaken it, then catch it, or beat it for Ancient Technology Points the first time.

  3. DungeonInside dungeons

    Tarantriss appears in forest (Lv 20–23), Feybreak (Lv 50–58) dungeons, and can be the dungeon boss. Dungeons open and close over time, so look for the cave icons on your map.

How to catch it

  • Be close to level 36 or above, with Pals that level too.
  • Bring Dragon Pals. They hit Tarantriss extra hard.
  • Lower its health first, then throw your best Pal Spheres. Throwing at its back gives a catch bonus.
