Bloodwing

The Bloodwing is a Rank V Mark in the game Final Fantasy XII. The hunt becomes available after felling Judge Bergan at Mt. Bur-Omisace. Bloodwing is found in the West Annex area of Barheim Passage. It attacked two escaping prisoners, one being fatally wounded. The other prisoner petitions the mark to avenge his friend.

Bestiary Entry
Genus: Rank V Mark Classification: Mutant Steeling

"Being a Variety of Steeling, transformed into a voracious Drinker of Blood by the Dense Mist in Barheim Passage. Those whom it latches onto are said to be drained to the last Drop. A Man who lost a Comrade to one of their number posted a Bill for this Mark."

Battle
The Bloodwing itself is not terribly difficult, but the path to the mark contains a lot of Specters and Dead Bones. If the player takes out these before approaching the Bloodwing, they should be fine. Bloodwing uses Leech frequently, so it is a good idea to inflict Disease on it. A good strategy is to inflict Immobilize on it and chip away at it with ranged weapons and magick.

If Zalera has already been acquired it may be preferred to go through the back of the Garamsythe Waterway to get to the Barheim Passage West Annex faster without having to slog through as many hordes of undead in the area.
