The Fire Gigas is a boss from Final Fantasy II. It serves as one of the bosses in the Mysidian Tower, guarding the spell Ultima. Firion and his allies must defeat it on their way up the tower. It later appears as a random encounter in Pandaemonium's secret room.
Stats[]
Battle[]
Fire Gigas, as the first of three similar creatures encountered as the party ascends the Mysidian Tower, is the easiest boss fight in the dungeon. Despite being categorized elementally, still prefers physical bombardment to magical assaults. It can cast Fire 16 on the party, and may occasionally single out one character to cast Boulders 9 on, but the main concern will be his constant physical attacks.
Strategy[]
The party should cast Blink as soon as the fight begins, and use Protect. Mages will be busy by curing the wounded and casting Blizzard. The Fire Gigas is weak to the Sleep spell. The party can equip an Ogrekiller to maximize damage from physical blows, or Ice-type weaponry to exploit his elemental weakness.
