Hunt Battle: Vyraal
Battle against Vyraal

Level: 41
HP: 106,616
Steal: Spiral Incisor (55%), Charger Barding (10%), Leo Gem (3%)

The Viera Wayfarer will join you when you reach the Northsward and will assist you during the fight. She will even buff your party members as well with Protect and Shell.

Make sure that you set up a Dispel Gambit to remove Vyraal’s Haste buff which it will automatically start the battle off with.

Vyraal will flee the battle once it’s HP gets too low. It will then recast Haste on itself and heal itself if it gets too far away, so leave your Dispel Gambit active for the duration of the fight, and reengage Vyraal again to finish it off.

It will start to resist damage more effectively as its HP gets lower, but beside that and the fact that it runs away from you once, this is a fairly standard battle that should not cause too much trouble.

A video of the battle in the Zodiac Age version is included below:

You will receive a Viera Rucksack once the battle is over. Return to the Whitecap tavern in Balfonheim Port and speak to the Viera Wayfarer again. She will take back the Rucksack and give you the rewards for completing this quest which includes 3,500 gil, a Halberd and a Crystal Shield. She will also give you a Dragon Scale that she finds in the bottom of the bag which is used to complete the Hell Wyrm side quest (which should not be attempted until you are between level 50-60).
