HP: 27,000

The most challenging aspect of battling a Malboro is its use of “Bad Breath”. This attack will render your party nearly useless unless you protect them with certain auto-abilities. Equip armor that can protect against Silence, Darkness, Slow, Poison, Confusion, and/or Berserk. It likely won’t be possible for you to protect against all these when you first arrive in the Calm Lands, but stack up as many as you can.

Kimahri can use Lancet on a Malboro to learn Bad Breath for his Ronso Rage Overdrive.

Location

You can find them in most places around the Calm Lands, but they are most abundant in the northwest portion of the map and the areas near where Belgemine is standing. Malboros have a very low encounter rate, so be patient and keep trying.
