Just defeated Xenolord

[ᴋʏʀᴜɢᴇʀ £]

and holyshiet it is the most stressful Boss raid i've fought so far Solo
i don't even wanna know how the Ultra Version Boss Raid of this guy is going to be lmao

do you guys have like an optimal Strategy to fight this guy? (i use 30 base Pal btw and 5 Bases. other than that all Default Settings)
i kinda wanna know how do you guys beat this Pal Boss the 1st time

for me i just went all in with my own brew strategy of :
- using 26 Neptilius (all 1✰ Rank) with Musclehead, Ferocious, Legend and Lunker
- and 4 Neptilius 2✰ Rank similar to the other 26 but one of the passive is Demon God
- my party pal consist of 4 Gobfin with maxed 4✰ Rank + Vanguard for all of em
- and 1 more pal slot is Felbat 4✰ for lifesteal equipped with Diamond Body,
Burly, Vanguard and Runner
- im using Charge Rifle 4 + Rocket Launcher 4 (the Charge rifle rly took a while to make..)
and Attack Talisman +2 and Support Whistle (ATK) +2
- i also Ate Mammorest Food Buff and im wearing both Hexolite Armor and headgear
(the headgear is +4 while the armor is +1)
- and Megabooster Shots For all the Neptilius on my base

this took me like 5x tries before finally i was lucky enough to survive that giant fkn laser near the last few remaining of its Hp. this leaves about 2mins left and also my base is completely flatten to the ground leaving only the Palbox remaining and all my neptilius is dead after the Xenolord is defeated lol

I cleared xenolord a few times (not ultra, just the normal one). Your problem is an improper setup. You obviously want a "raid base" that has only what you need for the raid. I used 12 maxed bastigors with bred double blizzard spike (legend, demon god, musclehead, serenity), 3 rescue falerises aqua (again maxed, optimized for defense and speed, combat off in monitoring stand) and some pal pods. Pal pods should survive the fight even if they catch on fire (the falerises aqua extinguish them). It worked fine and was quite easy, it takes several fights with my setup to actually break the pal pods without repairing/rebuilding stuff.

Felbat is not the best party pal, you are better off with something that flies and doesn't have to tank everything. Or at least with surviving army (revived in pal pods counts as surviving) that tanks and fights for you. If you get a bunch of pal pods and leave some of the neptiliuses on rescue duty (combat off, no work to do so they will extinguish fiers/carry casualties to pal pods), you shouldn't have too many problems. Xenolord was doable before trust existed (even ultra), your neptiliuses should be fine as long as they are lv 60+.
