The Glowering Inferno's regular attack does ~15 HP if the party is properly equipped. He can trample the party which hits everyone, causing ~10 damage to everyone. Its fire breath will cause ~10 flame damage to everyone as well. Its most devastating attack is Muster Strength where it will take a turn to charge up an attack. Its next attack will do double damage, depending on the attack it uses. The Glowering Inferno is resistant to flame attacks. So the player is advised not to use Kiefer's Flame Slash and Maribel's Frizz.

Kiefer and the Hero should attack while Maribel should be the designated healer, attacking only when the party isn't hurting for health.
