![]() ![]() The party could perform a Quickening chain when Earth Tyrant is at 75% life to avoid the boosted Defense. Instead of having one person cast Decoy, the party could have two people (counting the Lured person) to cast Decoy on the one person. If Larsa is not in the party, one could make one's own "Larsa" out of a party member with Hi-Potion cure gambits, because a quick healer is needed-magick sometimes takes too long and the party may be busy casting other spells. ![]() In the original version Larsa has an infinite stock of Hi-Potions, but in the Zodiac versions the player can configure his gambits at will and he will use items from the player's inventory. If he is in the party, Larsa will help out. It is best to have Protect on everybody-either from the spell or the Shielded Armor (from Mt Bur-Omisace). The Lured party member should be equipped with Tourmaline Ring to avoid the Earth Tyrant's Poison attacks although it does not inflict Poison that often, it is still better than setting up an extra gambit just to cure a rare status. The main savior of this battle is to have a tough party member with good evasion and a good shield along with Decoy cast on them. It should be combined with Blind and Slow to be useful. Berserk is also situational: it restricts Earth Tyrant to only using regular attacks, but those become faster and more powerful.If the player is not using Nihopalaoa for applying ailments, they can ignore all of the other ailments on this list, with the possible exception of Blind (which has an infinite duration, so it only has to be applied once) just in case they are late in reapplying Sleep. The party's levels and equipment become largely irrelevant. The party would have to attack with magick exclusively, but as long as they reapply Sleep before it wears off, the boss will never attack. Sleep stops Earth Tyrant from acting but wears off when it receives any physical attack.The player would have to attack with magick exclusively and also inflict Blind and Slow, so that Earth Tyrant takes longer to land a hit on itself. Confuse is situational, making Earth Tyrant attack itself but also wearing off when it receives any physical attack (including its own).Slow reduces the rate at which Earth Tyrant acts.Blind makes Earth Tyrant often miss with its attacks.If the player has neither, they can still use magicks though they might miss a few times before landing. In the Zodiac versions, the player will have to make one at the bazaar if they want one early. In the original version, the Nihopalaoa is sold by the Clan Provisioner once the Headhunter rank is reached at ten defeated marks. To inflict these ailments reliably (and quickly, before the boss can do much), the player could equip someone with Indigo Pendant and have them cast status spells (however, Indigo Pendant will not be available when Earth Tyrant is first ready to be fought), or equip Nihopalaoa and throw a Remedy. Earth Tyrant is susceptible to various status ailments that make the battle easier. ![]()
