Colubrim

Colubrims are an enemy species in Xenoblade Chronicles X under the Piscinoid classification. They are colossal indigens in the shape of flying dragons, with powerful electric abilities.

Description
''Enormous, dragon-like creatures armed with multiple feelers. Each of these appendages moves as if independent of the colubrim, and features a prey-seeking mouth at the end.''

''Much of their time is spent hibernating beneath rivers of magma, making the beasts a rare sight indeed. They're easy to spot when active, however, as they quickly turn their voracious appetites on every organism in the vicinity.''

With a lifespan of close to a millennium, and activity periods that are irregular at best, colubrims rarely end up reproducing more than once a century, resulting in relatively low numbers for the species.

In combat
Colubrims are extremely powerful enemies with high power ranged electric attacks. Electric reflection is not enough against them, since their strongest Electric attack, Skydrake's Roar III, will negate reflection. Electric resistance is most important, followed by thermal and physical resistance, since colubrims have powerful attacks that can inflict both Shock and.

Since they can fly, Colubrims are best faced using ranged weapons.

Colubrims have a weak point that is discovered when the fin on top of their head is broken.

Colubrims in most cases have these resistances:

However, the Colubrim in Cauldros have these attribute resistances:

Variations
Colubrim only appear as Tyrants in two types:


 * The one Black Colubrim, Elvira, the Talondrake, is a very reflective black that appears silver in the sunlight. It is found in the Drop Shaft in the hollow mountain towering over Primordia, although it will leave at late night to loom over New Los Angeles from the cliff. Destroying the tail will grant a Black Colubrim Tail.
 * The one Brown Colubrim, Vortice, the Deific Blast, is found way above Mount M'gando in Cauldros. Destroying the tail will grant a Brown Colubrim Tail.

In general, all Colubrims drop these items:
 * Reverse Colubrim Fin from the inverse fin and weak point.
 * Colubrim Eel Kebab from the four tentacles and the head.
 * from the main body.
 * Pristine Whiskers from the main body.
