- If you notice that the armor on the monster's back is red from the fire, it is a sign that you can easily break it with Silkbugs;
- Basarios can emit poisonous gas and affect you with fireblight and sleep. Stock up with antidotes, herbal medicines, and energy drinks to quickly heal from these negative statuses;
- Beware of the molten stones that the monster will split in your direction. They do a lot of damage, so dodge them or use Wirebugs to move at a safe distance.
- The monster will hide underground from time to time, and it can attack from the there!;
- Basarios attacks with rays of fire, and after that, it quickly gets tired. It will be the perfect moment to perform a combo on him.
