How to Beat Bellanoir Libero (Ultra): Team and Drops

The Bellanoir Libero (Ultra) raid is the Level 80 rematch you unlock by clearing the standard Bellanoir Libero fight, and it is the single most damage-resistant boss in the game — only 9% of what you deal actually lands. This guide covers her exact multipliers against the Level 45 version, the team that stays super-effective through both halves of the fight, all nine attacks in each phase with power and cooldown, the passive stack she gains at the mode change, the gear that keeps you alive, and everything the clear pays out.

Bellanoir Libero (Ultra) Raid Stats

Read the bottom two rows together, because that is the whole story of this fight. Going from the Level 45 slab to the Ultra slab multiplies her health bar by 3.5× and cuts your throughput from 40% down to 9% — stacked, the Ultra takes roughly 15× longer to kill than the fight you already beat, with identical attack patterns. She is not the fattest raid boss (Blazamut Ryu's Ultra runs ×500 HP) and she does not hit the hardest (Hartalis and Xenolord both scale damage to ×13), but ×0.09 damage taken is the harshest reduction in the game, tied only with the other two Ultra tiers. Every raid multiplier sits side by side on the raid boss list with all battle multipliers.

What You Need Before You Summon the Ultra

There is no fragment grind for this tier. Four Bellanoir Libero (Ultra) Slab Fragments do combine into a slab, but you will almost certainly never craft one — the Level 45 clear hands you a finished Ultra Slab outright, and so does every Ultra clear afterwards. That refund is the important part: the hard tier pays for its own re-entry, so once your first standard win seeds it, the only thing gating repeat runs is whether you can actually finish one. The slab is consumed the moment you offer it whether you win or lose, so a wipe costs you the loop until you beat the Level 45 fight again. The altar itself is Technology 33 and dirt cheap, and there are 16 altars already standing in the world if you would rather not build one — all of them pinned on the interactive map's raid altar layer.

Requirement	How you get it
Summoning Altar	Technology 33 — 100 Stone and 20 Paldium Fragment, or use one of the 16 world altars
Bellanoir Libero (Ultra) Slab	100% drop from the Level 45 clear, and from every Ultra clear after
A Dragon attacker	For the Dark opening — see the team table below
A Fire attacker	For the Ice second half — non-negotiable, she swaps element mid-fight
Lightweight Ancient Armor	Technology 79 — the armour tier that survives ×10 damage
Plasma Rifle	Technology 78 — the sustained-fire weapon for a 15-minute health bar
Level 55+ condensed Pals	She summons at 80; anything under-levelled contributes nothing through ×0.09

She Has Two Weaknesses, Not One

Partway through the fight Bellanoir Libero changes element entirely, and the swap is total rather than additive — she drops Dark for Ice. That single mechanic is what wrecks first attempts, because Dragon is the answer to Dark and Ice is the answer to Dragon. Your perfectly-built Dragon squad goes from super-effective to actively vulnerable in one animation, and the mode change also slaps Freeze on everything on the field at once, so you eat the transition no matter how well you are playing. Fire is what beats Ice, so the correct read is to bring both elements and swap partners on the flip — or, better, bring a Pal that is Dragon *and* Fire and never swap at all. The element chart and counter finder has the full matchup grid if you want to plan around the rest of your roster.

Best Pals to Bring Against Bellanoir Libero (Ultra)

Only four Pals in the game are both Dragon and Fire, and they are the entire reason this fight is manageable — they hit for bonus damage in the Dark opening *and* the Ice second half, so you never lose a damage window to a swap. Jormuntide Ignis and Blazamut Ryu tie for the highest melee attack of the four at 150, but Blazamut Ryu is itself a raid boss you have to summon, so Jormuntide Ignis at 21 spawn points is the realistic top pick. Eidrolon Ignis is the one to bring if you keep dying: same 130 ranged attack, but 120 defense against Jormuntide Ignis's 100, and 26 spawn points to go find one right now. Skip Chillet Ignis unless it is all you have — the dual typing is right but 85 ranged attack and 80 defense will not survive ×10 damage. If you would rather run element specialists, Jetragon has the highest ranged attack of any Dragon at 140 for the opening, and Blazamut brings 150 melee for the Ice half. Full loadouts for any of these are on the best Pal builds guide.

Pal	Elements	Attack (M / R)	HP / Def	Why bring it
Jormuntide Ignis	Dragon / Fire	150 / 130	130 / 100	Covers both phases at 150 melee — highest of any catchable dual-type here, 21 spawn points
Eidrolon Ignis	Dragon / Fire	100 / 130	115 / 120	Same 130 ranged as the top pick with 20 more defense — the survivable both-phase option, 26 spawn points
Blazamut Ryu	Dragon / Fire	150 / 130	105 / 125	Best raw statline of the four, but you have to clear its own raid to own one
Jetragon	Dragon	100 / 140	115 / 120	Highest ranged attack in the Dragon element — bench it the moment she turns Ice
Shaolong	Dragon / Water	100 / 135	140 / 120	140 HP is the beefiest Dragon frame, and 63 spawn points make it easy to get
Aegidron	Dragon / Ground	100 / 125	105 / 140	140 defense — the phase 1 body that holds aggro through the Blind windows
Blazamut	Fire	150 / 125	100 / 120	Pure Fire specialist for the second half at 150 melee, 16 spawn points
Incineram	Fire / Dark	150 / 100	95 / 85	The cheap Fire answer — 105 spawn points, though 85 defense means it dies to a stray Ice hit
Chillet Ignis	Fire / Dragon	100 / 85	90 / 80	Correct typing, worst numbers of the four — a last resort only

Every Attack in the Ultra Fight

Her rotation is split cleanly by the mode change: nine Dark moves before it, nine mostly-Ice moves after. Note the cooldown column is her baseline — the raid's ×2 cooldown rate means she cycles the whole list roughly twice as fast as the numbers read. The one to memorise is Nightmare Bloom, her exclusive 600-power beam barrage: she vanishes, reappears, and fires beams that spread outward like a flower, so the disappearance is your cue to already be moving sideways. Almost everything Dark applies Blind, which is genuinely dangerous here rather than annoying — losing your screen for two seconds while a ×10-damage attack is in the air is how runs end.

Phase 1 — the Dark rotation

This half is identical on the Level 45 slab and the Ultra slab — same nine moves, same powers, same cooldowns. Only the multipliers change. Dark Cannon and Umbral Surge are the 4-second fillers she throws constantly at 70 and 60 power; they are chip damage you should be tanking rather than dodging. Everything at 400 and up is a real threat, and Flame Waltz deserves a specific callout because it is a Dark move that visually reads as fire — expanding rings that then release homing flames, with a Burn on top. Do not group up for it.

Phase 2 — the Ice rotation (Ultra only)

Here is where the Ultra stops being the same fight. On the flip she discards Umbral Surge, Dark Cannon, Nightmare Ball and Dark Arrow, and picks up four Ice moves — and the Ultra's four are not the Level 45 version's four. The standard fight replaces them with Diamond Rain, Blizzard Spike, Crystal Breath and Icicle Cutter, which still includes 80- and 160-power filler. The Ultra swaps in Double Blizzard Spike and Absolute Frost at 700 power each, plus Icicle Line, and keeps Diamond Rain. The result: nothing in the Ultra's second-phase rotation is below 300 power, every Ice move carries a full-strength Freeze, and her two hardest hits are moves the Level 45 fight never shows you. Ice Skill Fruit options for your own team are listed on the Ice skill fruit guide.

The Mode Change and the Passives She Gains

The transition is not just an element swap. She Freezes the entire field, turns Ice, and picks up five passives at once — and the Ultra's stack is a straight upgrade over the Level 45 version's. Adding it up, the Ultra gains +85% Shot Attack against the standard fight's +75%, and the real difference is the last row: the Level 45 version gets Lord of the Underworld, which boosts Dark damage only, on a boss that just threw away most of its Dark moves. The Ultra gets Siren of the Void, which boosts Dark *and* Ice by 30% each — so her brand-new 700-power Ice kit lands at full value while the standard fight's Ice kit gets nothing from its passive. That mismatch is most of why the Ultra's second half feels so much more lethal than the multiplier alone suggests. The one crumb in your favour: Sadist and Aggressive cost her defense, so she ends the flip 20% squishier than she started — which barely dents ×0.09, but it is real.

Best Gear for the Ultra Raid

Because only 9% of your damage lands, this fight is a sustained-DPS problem, not a burst one — you want the weapon you can hold the trigger on for fifteen minutes without running dry. That is the Plasma Rifle at Technology 78: 2,232 attack on the Legendary schematic, a 46-round magazine and effectively unlimited durability. The base craft is 1,860 attack with 38 rounds, which still works but costs you reload windows you would rather spend shooting. Compare attack values only within a weapon class here — the Plasma Cannon's 13,000 is a two-shot launcher figure and means nothing next to a rifle's per-bullet number. On the defensive side, Lightweight Ancient Armor at Technology 79 is the only chest piece that makes ×10 damage survivable, and the Ancient Shield self-repairs between hits, which matters enormously in a fight this long. The whole Ancient tier and how to unlock it is broken down on the best ancient technology guide.

Gear	Stats (Legendary)	Tech	Why bring it
Plasma Rifle	2,232 attack · 46 rounds	78	Highest sustained rifle damage — the main gun for a 15×-length health bar
Drone Launcher	240 attack	77	Fires and forgets — keeps damage ticking while you are Blinded or Frozen
Plasma Cannon	13,000 attack · 2 rounds	61	Burst opener only; launcher numbers are not comparable to rifle numbers
Lightweight Ancient Armor	1,092 defense · 3,120 HP	79	The single biggest survivability jump available — craft this before you summon
Ancient Helm	650 defense · 1,560 HP	68	Another 1,560 HP on top of the armour
Ancient Shield	2,200 shield	71	Self-repairs after a lull — effectively free health across a long fight
Dogen Emblem	Attack — you and your Pal	—	Raises your damage and your partner's, which is where the ×0.09 bottleneck sits
Attack Pendant +2	Attack	—	The pure-offence slot if you are already surviving comfortably
Silvegis Emblem	Defense — you and your Pal	—	Keeps your Dragon partner alive through the Ice phase
Warsect Terra's Belt	Defense and Health	—	The safest accessory for a first Ultra attempt

Swap partners the instant she freezes the arena

The field-wide Freeze at the mode change is unavoidable and it is also your alarm. The moment it lands, your Dragon partner has gone from super-effective to taking bonus damage from every single move she now uses, and Ice is the one element Dragon actually fears. Recall it and send out Fire before the Freeze wears off. If you built around Eidrolon Ignis or Jormuntide Ignis you can ignore this entirely — that is the whole argument for the dual-typed picks.

Fight from the flanks and never line up with your party

Umbral Surge fires a fan that spreads as it travels, Icicle Line sends pillars out in three straight directions, and Nightmare Bloom's beams radiate outward from her. All three punish anything standing in a line in front of her. Keep your Pals and any co-op partners on opposite flanks so a single pattern can only clip one of you, and treat her vanish animation as the signal to break whatever line she was facing.

Never stop shooting through Blind

Blind appears on seven of her nine Dark moves, and with the raid's ×2 cooldown rate you will spend a large share of this fight unable to see. Disengaging every time it lands is how a 15×-length health bar becomes unbeatable. Keep firing at her last known position, and bring a Drone Launcher as your second weapon — it keeps putting out damage during the seconds you have no screen and during the Freeze on the transition.

Do not attempt it before you have farmed the Level 45 fight

The standard fight has the same attack patterns, the same mode change and the same Freeze, at 40% damage taken instead of 9%. It is a full-speed rehearsal that costs a slab you can actually replace — four Bellanoir Libero's Slab Fragments, and the fragment sources are all mapped in the Bellanoir Libero slab and summoning guide. Learn the timings there, then spend the Ultra Slab.

Bellanoir Libero (Ultra) Rewards

Everything on the Ultra list is a flat 100% drop with fixed amounts — no rolling, no bad clears. Ten Ancient Civilization Cores is more than double what the Level 45 fight pays, and ten Training Crystals is the real prize, since each one raises a Pal's level by exactly one with no experience grind involved. The Witch's Crown is the trophy: it only ever drops here, but be clear about what it is — 30 defense and 80 HP, against the Ancient Helm's 650 and 1,560. Wear it because you earned it, not because it is armour. You also pick two of one Applied Handbook rather than the standard fight's one, each permanently granting a work suitability to a Pal that lacks it. And the fourth line is why you do this at all: another Ultra Slab, so the loop never closes.

Reward	Ultra (Lv 80)	Standard (Lv 45)	Chance
Witch's Crown	×1	—	100%
Ancient Civilization Core	×10	×2–4	100%
Training Crystal	×10	—	100%
Bellanoir Libero (Ultra) Slab	×1	×1	100%
Training Manual (XL)	—	×4–6	100%
Dark Skill Fruit: Dark Whisp	—	×1	100%
Applied Ranching Handbook I	×2	×1	Choose one of three
Applied Transporting Handbook I	×2	×1	Choose one of three
Applied Medicine Production Handbook I	×2	×1	Choose one of three

Summary

Bring a Dragon/Fire Pal so you never lose a damage window to the element swap, craft the Plasma Rifle and Lightweight Ancient Armor before you offer the slab, expect a guaranteed Freeze at the mode change, and keep shooting through Blind rather than disengaging. The fight is not mechanically harder than the Level 45 version — it is the same nine Dark moves and the same transition — it is just 15× longer and hits 5× harder, with two 700-power Ice attacks the practice fight never showed you. Every clear refunds the slab, so the first win is the only one that costs you anything.
