Destroyer (Final Fantasy VI)

The Destroyer is an enemy in Final Fantasy VI. Like most enemies in the Magitek Research Facility, it has a high physical defense; however, unlike other enemies in this section, this enemy is healed by Thunder-elemental attacks. Other level two spells like Fira or Blizzara can be effective against this enemy. Alternatively, Defense-ignoring attacks like Raging Fist, Drill, and Fang can be used to easily defeat a Destroyer.

As a side note, the Destroyer can cast Reraise, but because its max MP is not high enough to use the spell, it will always fail. However, this makes the Destroyer useful as a Rage for Gau, giving him access to Reraise very early in the game.
