How to Avoid Being Swallowed by the Duneworm in FF7 Rebirth

To defeat Duneworm without getting swallowed by it, you need to keep your distance and be ready to dodge once it executes its Swallow attack. Every time the Duneworm dives underground, it will launch upwards and land on your character. The moment it dives underground and goes up, dodge in the opposite direction. It can be tricky to judge where the Duneworm will land, but you can keep spamming the dodge button to get away from it.

Another trick to dodge Duneworm’s Swallow attack is using the party member swap trick. It works by swapping the character you are controlling to another party member the moment it uses the Swallow attack. Although the timing can be hard to master, you can avoid the attack without the need to dodge it.

How to Pressure the Duneworm

Now that you know how to avoid getting swallowed by the Duneworm, you can focus on damaging the creature to defeat it. The Duneworm is weak to Ice Magic, and you can use Ice Spells to pressure it. It is recommended that you shift to a party member who excels in ranged combat and equip Ice Materia.

While keeping your distance, use Ice Spells to deal critical damage to the Duneworm until it gets staggered. You can also pressure the Duneworm more when it performs its Swallow attack. Once the creature is staggered, use your strongest abilities to deal as much damage as possible.

Keep repeating the steps till you have defeated the Duneworm within the given time limit. Doing so will complete the Death from Below Fiend Intel. While you are in the Corel region, you should look into how to assess all 25 enemies in Corel in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.
