Switches between flying and standing. This appears to be HP% basedVerification Needed, doing so every couple of %. When it is flying, it absorbs physical damage when casting spells and absorbs magical damage when readying TP moves. Also has a Bio aura.

Physical Qualities Magical Qualities


Ground: Melee hits, Bloody Claw, Terror Eye.
Flying: Readies Dark Orb and Dark Mist. (no melee hits, these 2 moves replace it). Will ready 2 or 3 of these, and then cast one spell.

Further Notes

BLU makes a good tank with PDT and MDT sets, switching to MDT when flying and PDT when on the ground. BLMs advised to nuke lightly when flying since big nukes can heal it a lot if it readies a move. Advised to remove everyone except the tank when it begins to fly, since dark orb and mist will deal heavy damage with mdt sets.

  • Can drop multiple Stone and Cards of Ardor.
