Title

Description

Game: Final Fantasy VI
Port: Steam

The Hill Gigas is the most threatening enemy in Zozo, behind the Veil Dancers that appear inside structures alone, which are easily handled thanks to Runic. But this enemy takes some special handling, especially if your party is low level or you have limited healing.

PLAN
=====
The Hill Gigas has 2 devastating attacks: Headbutt, which hits like a truck against 1 person. If slain, there is a 33% chance he will cast Magnitude 8, doing heavy Earth damage to the entire party.

To dispatch it without fuss, you have 3 options.

A) You can fire the Noiseblaster at it, which Confuses the beast. One of his Confusion attacks is Magnitude 8, which will consume 20 MP. Keep spamming Noiseblaster if it snaps itself out. After 3 casts, unleash your offense. When it gets killed, it won't have enough MP to cast Magic and it will off itself.

B) If Celes is Level 13, you gain access to the Imp spell, which for 10 MP will shut down Hill Gigas' special attacks. However this comes at a price, every hit will now be a Critical, but only doing 100 damage. Blind him with the Flash weapon or Confuse some Gobbledygooks and have them Vanish some party members to cut down damage.

C) If you bring Gau and have learned Rages, Mu will work here, which it's Special will banish the Gigas via Snare. You will still get XP for slaying it this method.

If you are doing A and B, once they have taken it's toll, use Sabin's Chainsaw and/or Cyan's Flurry to waste it fast. Cyan can also Tiger halve it's HP off easily.

If you need MP for Option B, spare a Veil Dancer and use Runic to get back 20 MP per collection, then quickly destroy it.
