Gil Snapper (rank III) | Extraordinary hunt notices Final Fantasy XII Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
You confirm the assignment at Nanan - south from the nomad Village in Giza Plains during the rainy season. Gil Snapper is extremely strong as for the time he appears. To get to him you'll have to make an effort first. |
To get to the enemy, you'll have to strike six old, withered trees.
| Trees are marked with the small red circles, and the place where Gil Snapper prowls is marked with the big circle.
|
The strucked trees gonna create a passage to a hidden area.
| Gil Snapper appears only during a very heavy rain.
|
Gil Snapper | About 85 000 HP | Resistant to Libra, Absorbs Water | Flatten, Blizzara, Blizzaga, Flash, Slow, Disable. |
At this point Bansat joins you - he'll help you with the Gil Snapper. The first time you enter that area he'll probably greet you with the words that the Gil Snapper is nowhere to be seen. In such situation you must leave the area and re-enter it till he says that the enemy has appeared.
As I said earlier - this monster is very strong. The tactic: Berserk and healing won't be enough. From time to time, when at least one of you characters is dead and as soon as you revives him he's dead again run a bit aside and quickly heal your whole party, do eventually changes in the active party and get back to the Gil Snapper - be quick because the enemy also uses the time of your absence and heals himself. Also keep in mind that there are aggressive Silikon Tortoises on 36 level there - be careful not to fall on one of these while running away from Gil Snapper.
His attacks are: Flatten - a very strong attack aimed against one of your characters, Flash - attack that blinds everyone in range, blizzara and Blizzaga - strong magickal spells with the Ice element, Slow and Disable.
On the same area you can find an Urn with Feather of the Flock, which lets you talk with cockatrices.
Bounty: (to collect it you have to visit Nanan in the Nomad Village during the dry season) 3000 gil, Phobos Glaze (1000 gil).
