Bunkerbeast

The Bunkerbeast is an enemy in Final Fantasy XIII-2 encountered in Yaschas Massif 100 AF.

Battle
Bunkerbeast has high damage resistance until it is staggered. It has a high chain resistance, but its stagger point is low. As such, the party should obtain a preemptive strike to bring its chain gauge up to 120% immediately, drastically reducing the effort necessary to defeat it. From there, the player should begin with Cerberus or Relentless Assault to stabilize the chain gauge, then switch to Tri-disaster to stagger the Bunkerbeast as soon as possible. Once it is staggered, the party should switch to Cerberus in order to deal as much damage as possible.

Paradigm Pack
As an ally, the Bunkerbeast has one of the highest HP growths of all monsters, its HP eventually rising above 10,000 when fully maxed out with Potent or Vitality materials. This, coupled with its passive resistance against Deprotect and Deshell, makes it one of the best Sentinels in the game. However, it is expensive as it requires a more materials than most other monsters that can achieve level 70.

Etymology
Bunkerbeast is a retranslation of Tochika Tortoise. Tochika is Japanese for bunker, which is derived from the Russian точка (tóčka).
