how do you beat raid bosses

[Laughing kookaburra]

i have the 11000 atk rocket launcher, 200 ATK, 5 gobfin in party, only doing 2500-3100 on libero, this monster has 450000 HP.... the timer runs out when i got its HP down to 50%, i also summoned 30 LV 55 pals at the base to fight but they did pathetic dmg

be on element and start breedin out those serenity pals.
You can get in bigger damage with vine and electric pals (vine makes fire moves do double damage also)
Electric can stun her for quite a bit and give your pals more room to damage her.

Alternatively if you don't want to breed pals you have two more options, get help from a friend or gobfin elemental mount party with shotguns or something else that is very strong.
Don't do 5 gobfin, do 4 gobfin with vanguard and stronghold + 2 other passives and an elemental mount. That means chillet for first form, pyrin or something else for 2nd form.

I just built a base, grabbed a bunch of wild pals that were around level 50, then put them in the "boss base" as active pals. Then I went to town. No breeding like the other nerds are saying to do and I got the job done. Only needed to swap pals that fainted a few times.

i have captured like 20+ gobfins, none of them got vanguard or stronghold, or there is a way to get whatever passive on pal that i don't know

and how jormuntide is rank S on the combat tier list while my 10+ alpha jormun lv55 gets destroyed by the boss

that's what i did, put in 30+ lv55 pals which are S-A tier of combat, still couldn't finish the boss off

You probably did the level 30 basic Bellanoir. The level 50 one would just nuke those pals. I tried that myself

Breed them to have it onto blank ones.
You don't need good passives on them, the attack is to boost yourself. Really vanguard just helps. The rest is just padding.
It adds up. Go for headshots. Unload on her fire bottom and her head when she gets stunned. You should be winning. If you really aren't doing enough damage, reset your stats with a lovander drink and put it all into attack.

To be fair I played with my world stats, set the pals to 50 pals per base. I only summoned the boss after finding pals that were strong typing. Maybe I should've been clear on that. They did add type advantages if you didn't know this already. Water over fire, and so on.

[shadowmpire]

do you have the world settings so pals take less damage? if you do it affects all pals not just yours.

[Laughing kookaburra]

what's the different between LV55 breed and captured pal ? do breed ones got stronger or what ?

Libero is a dark type, which is disadvantage against dragon like jormunt but it's funny she destroys them i also have 2 alpha xenoguards

Having friends also helps; not sure why they haven't reduced difficulty for single players.

The passives make a big difference for some pals. But you can solo her with a good team setup

but the passives come from breeding still randomized ? or is there a way to choose them

You just pair up pals that don't have extra stuff and only have what you want and the chance is way higher of getting just that. Random mutations can happen but they won't happen as much if you pair up two pals that don't have extras.

You don't even have to use that same pal to make a good version of it. You just need something with the passive that can have the resulting pal from the pair that makes the child.

You can just catch something with vanguard and you pretty much will have it since it's easy to pass down.

It's somewhat random during breeding as well, and can be anything from a few eggs to get a desired trait combination (I still hate the cryolinx I accidentally hatched with four perfect passives before I knew what breeding a perfect helzephyr with a frostallion would give me) to days or even weeks of RNG rolls on the hatches depending on your luck for a four-passive pal with what you want on it.

To answer your question, though: Yes...ish. There's a pal called yakumo whose passive gives pals a chance to spawn with the same passives the yakumo has (excluding lucky/legend/other exclusive passives). Catch a couple, breed until you get serenity/ferocious/musclehead on one, then max condense that and go hunt what you want the passives on with it out and following you. In my experience, it's around a 20% chance to get two passives (I don't have serenity on mine), so while it's still grindy, it's nowhere near as bad when you're farming, say, frostallion or jetragon.

Oh this is a good one, yeah. A good Yakumo can really speed things up

[Laughing kookaburra]

this game is nonsense, the developer didn't test it at all

after days of farming oil rig, i finally got the legendary 14k atk rocket launcher, tried to fight blazmut ryu, he oneshot 30 lv 55 alpha pals, my head shot did only 4k and he had like 550k HP, he killed me after 3 or 4 attacks it's so stupid.
