    Default leviathan.

    ive been on this guy for some time now. his tidal wave does about 700 damage and he sometimes uses it 2 or 3 times in a row. id be fine if that attack wasnt so powerful. so is there a place where i can get something to protect my characters from the attack like some sort of water ring? if not, does anyone have a good strategy to beat him. i have one or two but im not sure if theyll work. help.

    I could've sworn you could buy them in mirage, but I looked and couldn't find them

    (not that I looked very closely mind you)

    leviathan was hard but I was lucky but shell does make the damage go lower(and coral ring but I never used it). If i can remember right I had one sorcerer, one white mage, one black mage, and one time mage. I used haste on the white mage so for speedy recovery from it and I used shell on everybody then used haste on everyone and then infused flare with my enchanters and attacked him.oh and u need to master ninja to get the two swords ability so u can have two enchanters equipped) if what I told u dosen't work than I surely must not remember what i did to defeat him.

    but wheeeeeeeeeeeeere kishi I'm tired of exploring!

    I'm still fond of the 'mime away with bahamut' method of defeating leviathan. but then miming bahamut pretty much works for anything really

    [edit- oh duh, there in mirage. fien]

    Exploring Mirage is one of the best parts of the game, Allison.

    Coral Rings, ftw. You can get alot of Gil from that Phoenix Tower, I recall. Still, you can just get one for one character to survive and kill him, I'd suppose.

    i never thought of using shell. ill try that out. i was also thinking of changing job classes to ones with higher HP and using most of the same abilities. if not ill look harder in mirage. i looked there earlier but still couldnt find coral rings.

    i just beat leviathan by casting haste 2 and shell on everyone. if minimalized damage from tidal wave which was my main problem. im not sure if many people know this but ive just discovered that leviathan is a completely optional boss (or at least he is optional on the anthologies version.). to skip the fight you just have to walk to the bottome of the screen without pressing X on leviathan. but id have felt cheap for doing that so i fought leviathan anyway. in mirage village to get coral rings and other good rings you need to go into the armour shop. then press X on the box near the entrance. it will open up a secret passage that leads to a shop with the expensive rings.

    Technically speaking Leviathan is a side boss, in the same vein as Bahamut, Gogo et al. Most players don't realise this fact and assume he's a must-fight boss.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    Not that it helps much now.... But he has a major weakness to Bolt. So either cast it on 2-swords and use Sshot for an instant kill, or hold a Bolt rod and reflect Bolt3 off your entire party for an insane ammount of damage.

    Coral rings are handy for shinryu so you'll want to buy at least a couple even if you don't really need them for this battle
