I’m not the best dodger in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, so this particular enemy intel mission really got my palms sweaty. But if I can do it, so can you! Here’s how to defeat the Duneworm without getting swallowed in FF7 Rebirth.
Defeat the enemy without being swallowed. Kill from below. Complete all objectives. FFVII Rebirth.
There are a couple ways to complete this objective: use Tifa to dodge normally or use Aerith's Ward Shift. Both require proper timing. You can also use Yuffie or Red XIII instead of Tifa, but I prefer my monk because she can make quick work of the Duneworm.
Whatever strategy you use, be the character that deals the most damage to the Duneworm. This means close combat with Tifa and Ice Magic + Tempest with Aerith. This should draw the Duneworm's attention to you.
This is the key: once the Duneworm stops rolling on the sand or spitting out attacks, move a respectable distance away from it and wait for Swallow. Keep running to keep your distance. This will give you time to observe its movement in the sand, since its antennae will be visible. It will also increase your chances of dodging its attack.
