Thymesia - How To Defeat Urd
If you are going face-to-face with Urd, then that means you have delved into the wide and wonderful world of Sub Quests in Thymesia. You’ve endured challenge after challenge - boss after boss - and you are finally facing off against the last of the optional 'Big Bads'.

Urd, unlike the vast majority of the optional bosses in Thymesia, is not a gimmick fight. In fact, Urd can easily be ranked as one of the more difficult encounters the game has to offer. Her shtick is being devilishly fast, and if you don’t figure her out before she turns you into a pincushion, well, you might be stuck here for quite some time.
