Well, at first glance it might indeed seem that Dry Bones are immortal in Super Mario RPG. Although the screen shows that they take damage from your attacks, they don’t seem to care about these numbers. But you shouldn’t worry or be afraid of them since in fact, they have very little HP and are immune to physical Attacks.

In other words, your Normal Attacks are completely useless against them. At the same time, Special Moves, such as Fireball or Terrorize can defeat them. The latter is the best option since it attacks all enemies on the field.

And as soon as Dry Bones receive even the lowest damage from Special Moves in Super Mario RPG, they immediately lose. Yes, it really is that simple. Just use Special Moves, and you will defeat these bone enemies without any problems.

Even though you now know how to defeat Dry Bones in Super Mario RPG, we don’t recommend doing it. You will encounter them every step of the way in Sunken Ship. However, after winning the battle, players will not be able to get rid of them since they respawn again after a while.

But your Flower Points do not recover so easily. As a result, after a few battles, you may be left without FP, which will significantly complicate your battles with Dry Bones and other enemies.

But even knowing their weakness, you better not waste your FP on them. In the meantime, please take a look at our guide onย how to get and use Nurture Ring in Super Mario RPG.
