Zu
Fiend Listing - Monster Arena

Monster Arena > Bikanel > Zu

HP: 18,000

The first enemy that you encounter in Bikanel will be a Zu that Tidus will start off battling all by himself.

Zu is fairly large and looks fairly intimidating, but it is very easy to defeat. It has a predictable attack pattern that won’t do too much damage to your party members and it will drop to the ground once it falls down to 1/3rd of its HP. Have Wakka use Dark Attack or Dark Buster to inflict the Darkness status effect and greatly reduce the amount of damage that it does.

Location
